Proposed commit message

Fix copy arguments for strict aligned architectures

Small typo on copy arguments. In practice only affects arm32 and arm64 as I doubt there are users
of other architectures around.

Without this fix, Auditbeat would incorrectly decode ktrace events in non i386/amd64.

To fixup this pull request, you need to add the backport labels for the needed
branches, such as:

  • backport-v8./d.0 is the label to automatically backport to the 8./d branch. /d is the digit

This can be brought into the modern era and have error handling added if it is

func copyInt(dst unsafe.Pointer, src unsafe.Pointer, len uint8) error {
	switch len {
	case 1, 2, 4, 8:
		copy(unsafe.Slice((*byte)(dst), len), unsafe.Slice((*byte)(src), len))
		return nil
	default:
		return errBadSize
	}
}

(we can also remove the array punning below by changing the preamble in readInt to asSlice := unsafe.Slice((*byte)(ptr), len).

That's great, but can we do this in a second future step? I've found this just by reading the code and don't have a proper setup in place to test more invasive changes.

Yeah, fair enough.
