And so we'd handle related syscalls with native lp64 handlers (wrapped, to zero top halves) in kernel. And we don't need stat64 for ilp32. Did I miss something? Is everything correct? OFF_T is turned to 64-bit quite smoothly, others make applications crash with segfault. Now I'm in deep debugging. https://github.com/norov/glibc/commits/ilp32-dev https://github.com/norov/linux/commits/ilp32 Yury. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
