Subject: [9fans] u9fs and va_copy()
Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2004 10:49:27 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b44864ca97531a92bcddd4d2083c278e@plan9.bell-labs.com> (raw)

Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com> has provided a fix for u9fs on the PowerPC.
The va_copy() macro is needed if the type of va_list is not an array (as it is on all
the current Plan 9 compilers I believe).

There may be other software ported between Plan 9 and other systems which could run
foul of the va_copy() macro. Should we add it to the Plan9 header files and check
all our code conforms to the correct use of variable arguments as specified in C99?
