Subject: [PATCH upstream 1/4] state: use packet attribute for on storage structs
Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2016 08:54:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1478073270-3527-1-git-send-email-s.lengfeld@phytec.de> (raw)

These structs are used for on-storage data layouts. They should be not
affected by different integer precisions and alignment optimizations of
32bit or 64bit machines. Using the architecture independent integer data
types, like uint32_t, achieves the former, using the packet attribute
the later.
