net: use UNALIGNED_PUT() to access IP address
This commit allows the net_ipv6_addr_create_iid() argument addr to
have relaxed alignment.
This commit makes the following tests pass on qemu_leon3:
- net.6lo
Details:
sparc-zephyr-elf-gcc 9.2.0 compiles the beginning of
net_ipv6_addr_create_iid(),
addr->s6_addr[0] = 0xfe;
addr->s6_addr[1] = 0x8e;
UNALIGNED_PUT(0, &addr->s6_addr16[1]);
UNALIGNED_PUT(0, &addr->s6_addr32[1]);
into
400089d4 <net_ipv6_addr_create_iid>:
400089d4: 9d e3 bf a0 save %sp, -96, %sp
400089d8: 03 3f a0 00 sethi %hi(0xfe800000), %g1
400089dc: c0 2e 20 04 clrb [ %i0 + 4 ]
400089e0: c2 26 00 00 st %g1, [ %i0 ]
400089e4: c0 2e 20 05 clrb [ %i0 + 5 ]
400089e8: c0 2e 20 06 clrb [ %i0 + 6 ]
400089ec: c0 2e 20 07 clrb [ %i0 + 7 ]
%i0 is the function argument "addr". %g1 is prepared with the value
0xfe800000. The "clrb" instruction sets a single byte in memory to
0 and has no alignment restriction.
We get an unaligned exception on PC 400089e0 when %i0 ("addr") is
not a multiple of 4. The instruction "st" stores the full 32-bit
register %g1 to memory address in %i0. The effective address (%i0)
of the 32-bit register store is required to be naturally aligned by
the architecture.
The compiler assumes that "addr" is aligned according to its type
and has knowledge about the data representation.
