// unaligned APIs

// Portable handling of unaligned loads, stores, and copies.
// On some platforms, like ARM, the copy functions can be more efficient
// then a load and a store.
//
// It is possible to implement all of these these using constant-length memcpy
// calls, which is portable and will usually be inlined into simple loads and
// stores if the architecture supports it. However, such inlining usually
// happens in a pass that's quite late in compilation, which means the resulting
// loads and stores cannot participate in many other optimizations, leading to
// overall worse code.

// The unaligned API is C++ only.  The declarations use C++ features
// (namespaces, inline) which are absent or incompatible in C.

// Consider we have an unaligned load/store of 4 bytes from address 0x...05.
// AddressSanitizer will treat it as a 3-byte access to the range 05:07 and
// will miss a bug if 08 is the first unaddressable byte.
// ThreadSanitizer will also treat this as a 3-byte access to 05:07 and will
// miss a race between this access and some other accesses to 08.
// MemorySanitizer will correctly propagate the shadow on unaligned stores
// and correctly report bugs on unaligned loads, but it may not properly
// update and report the origin of the uninitialized memory.
// For all three tools, replacing an unaligned access with a tool-specific
// callback solves the problem.

// Make sure uint16_t/uint32_t/uint64_t are defined.

// ARMv7 and newer support native unaligned accesses, but only of 16-bit
// and 32-bit values (not 64-bit); older versions either raise a fatal signal,
// do an unaligned read and rotate the words around a bit, or do the reads very
// slowly (trip through kernel mode). There's no simple #define that says just
// “ARMv7 or higher”, so we have to filter away all ARMv5 and ARMv6
// sub-architectures. Newer gcc (>= 4.6) set an __ARM_FEATURE_ALIGNED #define,
// so in time, maybe we can move on to that.
//
// This is a mess, but there's not much we can do about it.
//
// To further complicate matters, only LDR instructions (single reads) are
// allowed to be unaligned, not LDRD (two reads) or LDM (many reads). Unless we
// explicitly tell the compiler that these accesses can be unaligned, it can and
// will combine accesses. On armcc, the way to signal this is done by accessing
// through the type (uint32_t __packed *), but GCC has no such attribute
// (it ignores __attribute__((packed)) on individual variables). However,
// we can tell it that a _struct_ is unaligned, which has the same effect,
// so we do that.
