Date: Tue, 30 Mar 2010 21:11:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4c1be092bc2b1a1fe5008f584c75e3cf@terzarima.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <twig.1269979011.18472@swcp.com>
on 64-bit machines, int and long are 32 bits,
long long (vlong) is 64 bits, just as on 32-bit machines,
but pointers are 64 bits. <u.h> defines uintptr
as the integer type that will hold a pointer.
u8int, u16int, u32int and u64int are used in device drivers
and elsewhere to declare values (eg, in memory-mapped
structures or protocol buffers) that must be a precise length.
