For kernel mode, see: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/driver/kernel/64bit_chklist.mspx About 3/4 of the way down: " Itanium-based systems require natural alignment for memory references (that is, 32-bit accesses at a 4-byte boundary). Misaligned memory references raise an exception on an Itanium-based system and bug check the system." For user mode, see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms680621(VS.85).aspx Default behavior in user-mode is that unaligned access will not be fixed automatically. -Fab _______________________________________________ ofw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ofw
