From 050f91dcd9a45a14449dded5180f633692b588d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Chou Date: Sun, 4 Oct 2009 23:33:19 +0000 Subject: ethoc: align received packet to make IP header at word boundary The packet buffer is allocated at 4 bytes boundary, but the IP header length and version bits is located at byte 14. These bit fields access as 32 bits word and caused exception on processors that do not support unaligned access. The patch adds 2 bytes offset to make the bit fields word aligned.
