[PATCH] D117616: GCC ABI Compatibility: Preserve alignment of non-pod members in packed structs

[David Blaikie via Phabricator via cfe-commits]

dblaikie added inline comments.


================
Comment at: clang/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst:239-243
+- GCC doesn't pack non-POD members in packed structs unless the packed
+  attribute is also specified on the member. Clang historically did perform
+  such packing. Clang now matches the gcc behavior (except on Darwin and PS4).
+  You can switch back to the old ABI behavior with the flag:
+  ``-fclang-abi-compat=13.0``.
