[Xen-devel] build issue due to '-Werror=cast-align' on ARM (armhf) [was: Re: [libvirt test] 63528: regressions - FAIL]

[Dario Faggioli <dario.faggioli@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

The Xen Project's automated test suite is failing at running its
libvirt tests for a few time, like this:

More specifically (from a more recent run):

The changeset being tested last, as of now, and still failing, is:

Full logs available at the following links:

http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/logs/64130/build-armhf-libvirt/5.ts-libvirt-build.log

Right now, I don't have an ARM cross build environment handy to try to
reproduce and attempt a fix, so I figured I at least was reporting it
here.

Regards,
Dario
