From: Thomas Martitz Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2020 12:26:03 +0000 (+0200) Subject: net: bridge: enfore alignment for ethernet address X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=206e732323c2a8e6d11f4125a62c27e60a50a850;p=linux.git net: bridge: enfore alignment for ethernet address The eth_addr member is passed to ether_addr functions that require 2-byte alignment, therefore the member must be properly aligned to avoid unaligned accesses. The problem is in place since the initial merge of multicast to unicast: commit 6db6f0eae6052b70885562e1733896647ec1d807 bridge: multicast to unicast Fixes: 6db6f0eae605 ("bridge: multicast to unicast") Cc: Roopa Prabhu Cc: Nikolay Aleksandrov Cc: David S.
