Tim Armstrong created KUDU-2094: ----------------------------------- Summary: 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
