Well, make it just always 64bit then. AIUI, this type is not used in any RPC at all yet, so this can't break anything. See how this is done for io_statbuf_t, it's always the 64bit content. That being said, we have a way deeper issue: once we are in the fcntl() function, we have currently no way to know whether the application was built using -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 or not (and thus using a 32bit struct flock, or a 64bit struct flock), because F_GETLK is just always defined to 7. I see two ways to handle it. An F_GETLK64 could be defined to another value (then which one?), and F_GETLK be defined to that when building with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. Or we can just make struct flock always 64bit, like is done on BSD. This would however have the unfortunate effect of breaking existing all binaries making use of flock, until rebuilt with the fixed headers. Roland, what do you think? Samuel
