Subject: [PATCH] LoongArch: Make -mstrict-align be configurable
Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2023 16:42:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230202084238.2408516-1-chenhuacai@loongson.cn> (raw)
Introduce Kconfig option ARCH_STRICT_ALIGN to make -mstrict-align be
configurable.
Not all LoongArch cores support h/w unaligned access, we can use the
-mstrict-align build parameter to prevent unaligned accesses.
This option is disabled by default to optimise for performance, but you
can enabled it manually if you want to run kernel on systems without h/w
unaligned access support.
