Subject: read-cache.c: allow unaligned mapping of the index file
X-Git-Tag: v1.7.11-rc0~76^2~9
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d60c49c2d7f683cd24a738533846cd3e34f2073e;p=git.git

read-cache.c: allow unaligned mapping of the index file

Both the on-disk format v2 and v3 pads the "name" field to the multiple of
eight to make sure that various quantities in network long/short type can
be accessed with ntohl/ntohs without having to worry about alignment, but
this forces us to waste disk I/O bandwidth.

Introduce ntoh_s()/ntoh_l() macros that the callers can use as if they were
the regular ntohs()/ntohl() on a field that may not be aligned correctly.
