[PATCH v1 0/3] Switch get/put unaligned to use memcpy

[Ian Rogers]

The existing type punning approach with packed structs requires
 -fno-strict-aliasing to be passed to the compiler for
correctness. This is true in the kernel tree but not in the tools
directory resulting in this suggested patch from Eric Biggers
 <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250614044133.660848-2-ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx/

Requiring -fno-strict-aliasing seems unfortunate and so this patch
makes the unaligned code work via memcpy for type punning rather than
the packed attribute.

Ian Rogers (3):
  vdso: Switch get/put unaligned from packed struct to memcpy
  tools headers: Update the linux/unaligned.h copy with the kernel
    sources
  tools headers: Remove unneeded ignoring of warnings in unaligned.h
