If QEMU is compiled with clang-7 it results in the warning:
hw/display/qxl.c:1884:19: error: misaligned or large atomic operation
may incur significant performance penalty [-Werror,-Watomic-alignment]
old_pending = atomic_fetch_or(&d->ram->int_pending, le_events);
^
This is because the Spice headers forgot to define the QXLRam struct
with the '__aligned__(4)' attribute. clang 7 and newer will thus
warn that the access here to int_pending might not be 4-aligned
(because the QXLRam object d->ram points at might start at a
misaligned address). In fact we set up d->ram in init_qxl_ram() so
it always starts at a 4K boundary, so we know the atomic access here
is OK.
Newer Spice versions (with Spice commit
beda5ec7a6848be20c0cac2a9a8ef2a41e8069c1) will fix the bug;
for older Spice versions, work around it by telling the compiler
explicitly that the alignment is OK using __builtin_assume_aligned().
