Todd Lipcon commented on KUDU-2094:
-----------------------------------
can you paste the exact warning you're getting? I think this is because
Counter's superclass Striped64 includes a 'Cell' member, which is marked with
CACHELINE_ALIGNED. However, it should also be exactly size 64. Perhaps this
gets messed up by being embedded in a non-POD class or somesuch, though.
> GCC 7.1 complains about alignment of Counter

> Key: KUDU-2094
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2094
> Project: Kudu
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Tim Armstrong
> Priority: Minor
>
> I found this when building the kudu/util subtree in Impala with gcc 7.1.
> In a few places, e.g. metrics.h, the compiler complains that the alignment
> required by Counter is less than the alignment guaranteed by new.
> {code}
> m = new Counter(proto);
> {code}
> I worked around this by setting -faligned-new, which was added recently to
> GCC and is enabled by default with C++17. The setting ensures that new
> allocates memory with the alignment required by the data type.
