Subject: [patch added to 3.12-stable] random: properly align get_random_int_hash
Date: Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:49:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160818124953.31969-40-jslaby@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160818124953.31969-1-jslaby@suse.cz>

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers3@gmail.com>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit b1132deac01c2332d234fa821a70022796b79182 upstream.

get_random_long() reads from the get_random_int_hash array using an
unsigned long pointer.  For this code to be guaranteed correct on all
architectures, the array must be aligned to an unsigned long boundary.
