I thought about it a bit more and switching this over to size_t will only cause breakage on 64-bit big endian platforms. On 32-bit systems this would have no effect. On 64-bit little endian systems, we'd still load the bottom four bytes, which is all right. We could use symbol versioning to deal with this, but I don't think it's worth the effort. I've sent out a code review to both of you: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D6660 If anyone wants to share their thoughts on the proposed change, feel free to leave a comment. I'll hold off for a couple of days before submitting. -- Ed Schouten <e...@nuxi.nl> Nuxi, 's-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands KvK-nr.: 62051717 _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
