Issue

• How to use type attribute __align in Red Hat Linux?
• The following code snippet compiled on AIX using gcc v4.1

#pragma nostandard
    GLOBAL GBLCOM  __align(PAGE) gblcom;
    GLOBAL VOLCOM  __align(PAGE) volcom;
    GLOBAL GAMCOM  __align(PAGE) gamcom;
    GLOBAL ADDCOM  __align(PAGE) addcom;
    GLOBAL LOGCOM  __align(PAGE) logcom;
    GLOBAL LFDCOM  __align(PAGE) lfdcom;
#pragma standard

The __align does not seem to be supported by the gcc compiler v 4.8 on Linux

I had to make the following changes ( not sure if they are correct) in order to compile on Linux using gcc v4.8

#pragma nostandard
    GLOBAL GBLCOM  __attribute__ ((__align(PAGE))) gblcom;
    GLOBAL VOLCOM  __attribute__ ((__align(PAGE))) volcom;
    GLOBAL GAMCOM  __attribute__ ((__align(PAGE))) gamcom;
    GLOBAL ADDCOM  __attribute__ ((__align(PAGE))) addcom;
    GLOBAL LOGCOM  __attribute__ ((__align(PAGE))) logcom;
    GLOBAL LFDCOM  __attribute__ ((__align(PAGE))) lfdcom;
#pragma standard

I get the following warnings (see below) when I compile the above
