hi i need help i have a data struct that matchs some hardwear but
gcc is alignin it this meins it is out of sync whit the hardwear
like
char is 2 bytes
long double is 12 bytes
will thats what gcc thinks
so i need to tell gcc not to align the data struct
may be like
noalign struct ........
the main prob is whit long double st[8]
gcc make long double 12 bytes when it need to be 10 bytes
think you
struct _i386_fpu_st
{
long long significand;
unsigned char exponent ;
/* unsigned long test ; */
} ;
struct _i386_fpu
{
unsigned short control ;
unsigned short rev0 ;
unsigned short status ;
unsigned short rev1 ;
unsigned short tag ;
unsigned short rev2 ;
unsigned long instructionPointer ;
unsigned short instructionSelector ;
unsigned short opcode ;
unsigned long operandPointer ;
unsigned short operandSelector ;
unsigned short rev3 ;
long double st[8] ;
/* struct _i386_fpu_st st[8] ; */
unsigned long rev[400] ;
} ;
extern struct _i386_fpu * i386_fpuInit(void) ;
