Subject: [PATCH] EDAC/mc: Fix memory alignment calculation formula
Date: Sun, 17 May 2020 01:21:15 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200516162115.16545-1-wata2ki@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Naoto Yamaguchi <i33399_YAMAGUCHI@aisin-aw.co.jp>

During the development of the off-tree driver, we found a bug that
causes alignment fault exception in mutex_lock.

Line of the code:
ffffffc010536ce4: c85ffe62 ldaxr x2, [x19]

Register value:
x19: ffffff800e90f6c4

This problem was caused by the alignment error of pvt_info
in struct mem_ctl_info.  It is caused by a calculation formula
error in edac_align_ptr.

Existing calculation formula is using variable p, but this
variable is address of the pointer variable not memory offset.
In this calculation formula should use *p.
