Because dma_addr_t is still 64-bit aligned _as a type_, that forces the union to be 64-bit aligned (as we already knew and worked around), but what I'd forgotten is that forces the entirety of struct page to be 64-bit aligned. Which means ... /* size: 40, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */ /* padding: 4 */ /* forced alignments: 1 */ /* last cacheline: 40 bytes */ } __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); .. that we still have a hole! It's just moved from being at offset 4 to being at offset 36. > That said, I think we need to have a quicker fix for the immediate > issue with 64-bit bit dma_addr on 32-bit arch and the misalignment hole > it leaves[3] in struct page. In[3] you mention ppc32, does it only > happens on certain 32-bit archs? AFAICT it happens on mips32, ppc32, arm32 and arc. It doesn't happen on x86-32 because dma_addr_t is 32-bit aligned.

AFAIK only a single driver use this. ... if you're going to do that, then we don't need to do this.
