Thank you. I initially only looked at things like: 19 COMPAT POSIX { long lseek(int fd, long offset, int whence); } from /usr/src/sys/kern/syscalls.master and assumed a 32-bit long int. The easy way to deal with this is to change the calls in the XFS code. The syscall part is mostly done. > -----Original Message----- > From: Julian Elischer [SMTP:julian@whistle.com] > Sent: Wednesday, August 11, 1999 5:36 PM > To: Alton, Matthew > Cc: 'Hackers@FreeBSD.ORG'; 'fs@FreeBSD.ORG' > Subject: Re: BSD-XFS Update > > stat, fstat, lseek are all already 64 bits in freebsd..... > > > On Wed, 11 Aug 1999, Alton, Matthew wrote: > > > SGI has released a portion of the XFS source code under the GPL: > > > > http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/ > > > > the source file is xfs_log.tar.gz. > > > > Of greater interest at this stage are the documents in: > > > > http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/design_docs/ > > > > I am currently researching methods for implementing the 64-bit > > syscalls stat64(), fstat64(), lseek64() &etc. delineated in the > > SGI design doc _64 Bit File Access_ by Adam Sweeney. > > > > The BSD-XFS port will be made available as a patch to the RELEASE > > FreeBSD kernels. > > > > > > Matthew Alton > > Computer Services - UNIX Systems Administration > > (314)632-6644 matthew.alton@anheuser-busch.com > > alton@plantnet.com > > > > > > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > > with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message
