Regarding compiler option "-mstrict" for SPARC Processor

[parthasarathy]

Hi !!

Iam facing a problem 
struct name
{
 int a[5];

};

struct mrreqchgresr_s
{
  SIGSELECT signo;           /* Signal number         
                  */
  W16 cell;                  /* Cell individual       
                  */
  W8  chgType;               /* Change type           
                  */
                             /* 0 = "Upgrade abis
path"                  */
                             /* 1 = "Downgrade abis
path"                */
  W16  lpset;                /* LPSET individual      
                  */
  W8   noOfLpdchs;           /* Number of LPDCHs      
                  */
  W16  lpdchInd[8];          /* List of LPDCH
individuals                */
  W8   result;               /* Request result        
                  */                        
                             /* 0 = Successful, change
possible          */
                             /* 1 = Unsuccessful, no
change possible     */
};

Two structs are defined and then there was a faulty
definition of the "signal" using the the
wrong struct and then trying to send the signal gave
the fault, like:
#define MRREQCHGRESR_S   sizeof(struct mrreqchgres_s)
Later on when sending the signal like following it
gave the error because the memory allocated
is not enough:
    sig_p = OS_alloc(MRREQCHGRESR_S, MRREQCHGRESR);
    sig_p -> mrreqchgresr.result = FALSE;

    OS_send(&sig_p, cceProcessId);

The correct way of coding this should be :
#define MRREQCHGRESR_S   sizeof(struct mrreqchgresr_s)
and then sending of signal:
    sig_p = OS_alloc(MRREQCHGRESR_S, MRREQCHGRESR);
    sig_p -> mrreqchgresr.result = FALSE;

    OS_send(&sig_p, cceProcessId);
This works and doesn't generate any fault in RPP nor
Razorsim.

The problem is that there should have been a restart
of the Razorsim when executing the
"faulty" code.
