drivers/acpi/prmt.c:156:29: error: passing 1-byte aligned argument to 4-byte aligned parameter 1 of 'efi_pa_va_lookup' may result in an unaligned pointer access [-Werror,-Walign-mismatch] 156 | (void *)efi_pa_va_lookup(&th->guid, handler_info->handler_address); | ^
The problem is that efi_guid_t is alighned but guid_t is not. I would have thought that Clang would say that even though the alignment in for &th->guid isn't spelled out explicitly, it would still end up being aligned at 8 bytes.
typedef guid_t efi_guid_t __aligned(__alignof__(u32));
The relevant code looks like this:
include/linux/uuid.h 13 #define UUID_SIZE 16 14 15 typedef struct { 16 __u8 b[UUID_SIZE]; 17 } guid_t;
drivers/acpi/prmt.c 54 struct prm_handler_info { 55 guid_t guid; 56 efi_status_t (__efiapi *handler_addr)(u64, void *); 57 u64 static_data_buffer_addr; 58 u64 acpi_param_buffer_addr; 59 60 struct list_head handler_list; 61 }; 62 63 struct prm_module_info { 64 guid_t guid; 65 u16 major_rev; 66 u16 minor_rev; 67 u16 handler_count; 68 struct prm_mmio_info *mmio_info; 69 bool updatable; 70 71 struct list_head module_list; 72 struct prm_handler_info handlers[] __counted_by(handler_count); ^^^^^^^^^^ This is a 64bit config so it's 8 byte aligned, right?
