[ Upstream commit f91717007217d975aa975ddabd91ae1a107b9bff ]
The struct bpf_fib_lookup is supposed to be of size 64. A recent commit
59b418c7063d ("bpf: Add a check for struct bpf_fib_lookup size") added
a static assertion to check this property so that future changes to the
structure will not accidentally break this assumption.
As it immediately turned out, on some 32-bit arm systems, when AEABI=n,
the total size of the structure was equal to 68, see [1]. This happened
because the bpf_fib_lookup structure contains a union of two 16-bit
fields:
union {
__u16 tot_len;
__u16 mtu_result;
};
which was supposed to compile to a 16-bit-aligned 16-bit field. On the
aforementioned setups it was instead both aligned and padded to 32-bits.
Declare this inner union as __attribute__((packed, aligned(2))) such
that it always is of size 2 and is aligned to 16 bits.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
