Subject: [IA64] sysctl option to silence unaligned trap warnings
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d2b176ed878d4d5fcc0bd35656dfd373f3702af9;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

[IA64] sysctl option to silence unaligned trap warnings

Allow sysadmin to disable all warnings about userland apps
making unaligned accesses by using:
 # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ignore-unaligned-usertrap
Rather than having to use prctl on a process by process basis.

Default behaivour leaves the warnings enabled.
