> a gaping ABI incompatibility is completely unacceptable There are two ways to fix this without the 64-bit-paddr overhead, a short-term and a long-term one. The short-term fix would be to use another module load path. This is close to calling it a different port, but it would not affect userland. A more correct but more expensive fix would be to keep out paddr_t from the kernel ABI relevant to modules. best regards Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH 52425 Juelich Sitz der Gesellschaft: Juelich Eingetragen im Handelsregister des Amtsgerichts Dueren Nr.
