Because all of the descriptor data structures are marked as __packed, GCC assumes the worst case wrt. alignment and generates unaligned load/store instructions on MIPS for access to all fields. Since descriptors always have to be 4-byte-aligned, we can just mark the data structures with __aligned(4), which allows GCC to generate much more efficient code. Verified through disassembly and OProfile comparisons. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
