The compiler will leave a 4-byte gap between handle and offset. 
Structure allocation guarantees a minimal alignment of 8 bytes, so the 
field alignment will be correct. It's all dependend on architecture, 
platofrm, calling convention, but that's the rule of thumb.

Have a look at the tool 'pahole' to inspect data-structure alignment in 
object files. You'll find plenty of gaps in compiled structure.

It's still questionable to leave the gap there. Either declare it 
explicity (e.g., __u32 empty0; )  or declare the structure with 
__attribute__((__packed__)).  Personally, I'd use the former.

Best regards
Thomas
