Hi folks, Guess I have your attention now thanks to LWN ;)
Next round of the preadv & pwritev patch series, hopefully finally solving the architecture issues. I've decided to go with the suggestion from the s390 guys: split the 64bit offset into two explicitly coded 32bit halves. The syscall prototype should work now for all archs without (in-kernel) wrappers. glibc must wrap the syscalls though to hide that split from the applications. But there is no way around glibc wrappers anyway, so I think that is sensible decision. cheers, Gerd -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
