Often in embedded or memory sensitive situations, we need to control the precise layout of data structures in memory. By default, the compiler is going to define structs with padding to suit that CPU's word size; however, in such sensitive environments such padding can cause problems. It may be necessary to use attributes to force structs to be created using contiguous memory - a packed struct.
