From 0f70fe605fad0f3215818ba79fc12617c0ec7f90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Horacio Mijail Anton Quiles Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2015 16:24:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] hexdump: fix for non-aligned buffers MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit A hexdump with a buf not aligned to the groupsize causes non-naturally-aligned memory accesses. This was causing a kernel panic on the processor BlackFin BF527, when such an unaligned buffer was fed by the function ubifs_scanned_corruption in fs/ubifs/scan.c . To fix this, change accesses to the contents of the buffer so they go through get_unaligned(). This change should be harmless to unaligned- access-capable architectures, and any performance hit should be anyway dwarfed by the snprintf() processing time.
