Subject: [PATCH] btrfs-progs: align btrfs receive buffer to enable fast CRC
Date: Sat, 26 Dec 2020 14:46:06 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201226214606.49241-1-shngmao@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Sheng Mao <shngmao@gmail.com>

To use optimized CRC implemention, the input buffer must be
unsigned long aligned. btrfs receive calculates checksum based on
read_buf, including btrfs_cmd_header (with zero-ed CRC field)
and command content. GCC attribute is added to both struct
btrfs_send_stream and read_buf to make sure read_buf is allocated
with proper alignment.

Issue: #324
