Comedi drivers make heavy use of standard types i.e unsigned short. According to Linux Device Drivers standard C data types are not the same size of all architectures. Should we be converting comedi/drivers to use kernel types u8, u16 etc Follow up question. Some comedi/drivers also use unsigned long for variables that are not memory addresses. If we are to convert standard types to kernel types how does one know the intended size of these variables. I see that the register values come from the manual http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/340934b.pdf Is the choice (size) of type in a struct (eg struct ni_private, comedi/drivers/ni_stc.h) a kernel design issue or is it a hardware issue and should I be reading the manual to find it. thanks, Tobin. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
