Re: delayacct: alignment changes break iotop

[Dan Carpenter]

Yeah, but the rule is that we don't break userspace... :/

Fixing the bug in iotop was always going to be the easy part.  It's
great that they've applied a fix to git repo but it still takes a while
to get the fix out to users so they don't notice a problem.

I think we're going to need to put an ifdef IA64 then size is 8 else
size is 4.  I just started this thread because I was hoping someone
had a different ifdef to use, like maybe there are other arches which
care about the alignment and maybe there is a way to test for it.
