tc: Fix misaligned access while creating pedit actions.
calc_offsets() function returns 'data' and 'mask' pointers, which are pointers somewhere inside struct tc_flower_key, and they are not aligned, causing misaligned memory access. For example: ipv6.rewrite_hlimit is at 148 byte offset inside the struct tc_flower_key. While the actual field is in the 7th byte of the IPv6 header in the actual packet. So, pedit will need to write the last byte of the [4-7] range to the actual packet. So, data pointer is positioned to 145th byte inside the tc_flower_key with the 000000FF mask. Obviously, 145th byte inside the structure is not 4-byte aligned. lib/tc.c:2879:34: runtime error: load of misaligned address 0x7f2802eaa321 for type 'ovs_be32' (aka 'unsigned int'), which requires 4 byte alignment 0x7f2802eaa321: note: pointer points here 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ... ^ 0 0xd7f2fb in nl_msg_put_flower_rewrite_pedits lib/tc.c:2879:34 1 0xd7f2fb in nl_msg_put_flower_acts lib/tc.c:3141:25 2 0xd6ae5a in nl_msg_put_flower_options lib/tc.c:3445:12 3 0xd6a2be in tc_replace_flower lib/tc.c:3712:17 4 0xd2bf25 in netdev_tc_flow_put lib/netdev-offload-tc.c:2224:11 5 0x94f6b7 in netdev_flow_put lib/netdev-offload.c:316:14 6 0xcbd19e in parse_flow_put lib/dpif-netlink.c:2289:11 7 0xcbd19e in try_send_to_netdev lib/dpif-netlink.c:2376:15 8 0xcbd19e in dpif_netlink_operate lib/dpif-netlink.c:2447:23 9 0x86536e in dpif_operate lib/dpif.c:1372:13 10 0x6bc289 in handle_upcalls ofproto/ofproto-dpif-upcall.c:1654:5 11 0x6bc289 in recv_upcalls ofproto/ofproto-dpif-upcall.c:892:9 12 0x6b766a in udpif_upcall_handler ofproto/ofproto-dpif-upcall.c:792:13 13 0xb5015a in ovsthread_wrapper lib/ovs-thread.c:422:12 14 0x7f280b2081ce in start_thread (/lib64/libpthread.so.0+0x81ce) 15 0x7f2809e39dd2 in clone (/lib64/libc.so.6+0x39dd2) Fix misaligned read by using appropriate functions.
