In the arm random config file, kconfig option 'CONFIG_AEABI' is disabled which results in adding the compiler flag '-mabi=apcs-gnu'. This causes the compiler to add padding in virtchnl2_ptype structure to align it to 8 bytes, resulting in the following size check failure: include/linux/build_bug.h:78:41: error: static assertion failed: "(6) == sizeof(struct virtchnl2_ptype)" 78 | #define __static_assert(expr, msg, ...) _Static_assert(expr, msg) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ include/linux/build_bug.h:77:34: note: in expansion of macro '__static_assert' 77 | #define static_assert(expr, ...) __static_assert(expr, ##__VA_ARGS__, #expr) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/virtchnl2.h:26:9: note: in expansion of macro 'static_assert' 26 | static_assert((n) == sizeof(struct X)) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/virtchnl2.h:982:1: note: in expansion of macro 'VIRTCHNL2_CHECK_STRUCT_LEN' 982 | VIRTCHNL2_CHECK_STRUCT_LEN(6, virtchnl2_ptype); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Avoid the compiler padding by using "__packed" structure attribute for the virtchnl2_ptype struct.
