I think the warning/error `expected #pragma pack parameter to be '1', '2', '4', '8', or '16'` have already guaranteed that for us? Or maybe using `unsigned int` makes people more comfortable?
================
Comment at: clang/include/clang/Sema/Sema.h:515
+ bool operator==(AlignPackInfo Info) const {
+ return AlignMode == Info.AlignMode && PackNumber == Info.PackNumber;
+ }

(1) You mean we have two `AlignPackInfo` with same AlignMode and PackNumber, but one is PackAttr and the other one is AlignAttr?
The example I can think of is:
```
a)#pragma align(packed)
#pragma pack(1) //AlignMode = Packed, PackNumber = 1
b) #pragma align(packed) //AlignMode = Packed, PackNumber = 1
```
But I don't think we have any issue in this case. Before and after my patch, a == b.
Please let me know any other cases concerning you if any.
(2) However, your concerns leads me to think of another case, where behavior changes with my patch.
```
a)
#pragma align(natural)
#pragma pack(1) /AlignMode = Native, PackNumber = 1
b)
#pragma align(packed) ///AlignMode = Packed, PackNumber = 1
```
Without this patch, a == b for other targets.
And I suppose a != b for AIX.

Comment at: clang/lib/Sema/SemaAttr.cpp:403
// Warn about modified alignment after #includes.
if (PrevPackState.CurrentValue != PackStack.CurrentValue) {
Diag(IncludeLoc, diag::warn_pragma_pack_modified_after_include);

Thanks for pointing this out. I agree that what we are doing here is not correct.
The original commit[45b40147117668ce65bff4f6a240bdae4ad4bf7d] message shows:
```
This commit adds a new -Wpragma-pack warning. It warns in the following cases:
- When a translation unit is missing terminating #pragma pack (pop) directives.
- When entering an included file if the current alignment value as determined
by '#pragma pack' directives is different from the default alignment value.
- When leaving an included file that changed the state of the current alignment
value.
```
So it looks these warnings are used only for `pragma pack`.
