--- Comment #4 from Gaetano Mendola <mendola at gmail dot com> ---
At this point I'm very puzzled. The fact I have to use memcpy instead of an
assignment for sake of portability is plain wrong.
Consider that only looking at:
struct in_addr myInAddr;
myInAddr.s_addr = theIpHeader->daddr;
I have no idea if the theIpHeader pointer was the result of a malloc or the
result of an assignment with a not aligned offset. Unless of course I inspect
the pointer value.
The entire application (my application) suppose, as I think it should, that an
assignment of a value retrieved from a structure member is correctly done, note
that I'm not relying if this is done with 1 bus access, 2 or whatever.
I'm going to put 2 in /proc/cpu/alignment and considering it as a kernel
configuration problem.
btw clang behaves correctly even with a "kernel not well configured".
