`char*` doesn't work

[hakanrw]

while testing some OpenCL examples, i found out that char* is not working on my system (Raspberry Pi 5).

code from hello_world.cl

/**
 * This kernel function only fills a buffer with the sentence 'Hello World!'.
 **/

__kernel void helloWorld(__global char* data){
    data[0] = 'H';
    data[1] = 'e';
    data[2] = 'l';
    data[3] = 'l';
    data[4] = 'o';
    data[5] = ' ';
    data[6] = 'W';
    data[7] = 'o';
    data[8] = 'r';
    data[9] = 'l';
    data[10] = 'd';
    data[11] = '!';
    data[12] = '\n';
    data[13] = 0;
}

it generates the following error

error: 28: Structure id 10 decorated as Block for variable in StorageBuffer storage class must follow relaxed storage buffer layout rules: member 0 contains an array with stride 1 not satisfying alignment to 4
  %_struct_10 = OpTypeStruct %_runtimearr_uint

changing __global char* type to __global int* resolves the issue.
