Think printk() too. Do you use "%lu", "%Lu" or "%llu"? It's a lot easier if __u64 is consistently unsigned long long - then it's always "%llu". The problem with defining it as "unsigned long" on some platforms and "unsigned long long" on others is that you're guaranteed warnings on one arch or another. David
