870325 - Alignment problem in Script::data

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect)

Description

[Martin Husemann]

Attachment: Add padding before bindings array

On sparc64 (at least) an odd number of try notes (sized 12 byte each) may cause a misaligned pointer for the bindings array following it in common storage (size 8 byte, requires 8 byte alignment).

The attached patch seems to fix it for me.

Fwiw, this fixes firefox on sparc64 for me too, as per bug #840242 comment 15.

Pushed to try in https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=e62d4aee3e38

Looks ok, though I have some nits about the code formatting.  Do you have commit access?  If not, I'll land this and fix the nits before I do.  Thanks!
