on amd64 it is:

short is 16 bits, as before for Plan 9
int and long are 32 bits, as before
long long is 64 bits, also as before
pointers are 64 bits, not as before.  (it's that last bit causes most of the trouble.)
i think it must be LLP64 in your scheme

Okay, time for the "dumb question of the month".

Concerning Plan 9 64-Bit support, which Long Pointer programming model
is being used with Sparc64 and AMD64 ports? LLP64, LP64 or ILP64. Just
curious.

Forgive my ignorance, I am a layman and nowadays get my schooling
though search engine results.
