    [PATCH] Eliminate __attribute__ ((packed)) warnings for gcc-4.1 · 6a878184
    Jan Blunck authored
    Since version 4.1 the gcc is warning about ignored attributes. This patch is
    using the equivalent attribute on the struct instead of on each of the
    structure or union members.
    
    GCC Manual:
      "Specifying Attributes of Types
    
       packed
        This attribute, attached to struct or union type definition, specifies
        that
        each member of the structure or union is placed to minimize the memory
        required. When attached to an enum definition, it indicates that the
        smallest integral type should be used.
    
        Specifying this attribute for struct and union types is equivalent to
        specifying the packed attribute on each of the structure or union
        members."
