Hi Alan,
  The following shows the compiler getting confused over the size
of a struct.  This is with a gcc/binutils built since the last
fix you did for me.

Richard


[rhirst@rhirst play]$ cat tc.c


typedef unsigned int u32;
#define NULL ((void *)0)

struct kernel_sym32 {
        u32 value;
        char name[60];
};

extern int sys_get_kernel_syms(void *);
extern int thing(struct kernel_sym32 *table);

int sys32_get_kernel_syms(struct kernel_sym32 *table)
{
        int len, i;

        len = sizeof (struct kernel_sym32);
        for (i = 0; i < len; i++, table += sizeof (struct kernel_sym32)) {
                if (thing(table))
                        break;
        }
        return i;
}

Just changed it to 'table += 64' and it still generates code that
adds 4096, so sizeof is not relevant.

As Alan has kindly pointed out to me, I goofed.  In my defence, I
did copy the garbage code from the sparc64 port ;)

Right. sizeof() works fine.
table points to something that is 4096/64 (64 bytes) in size.
table+=1 results in adding 4096/64 to table.
The code should read "((char *) table) += 64" or "table++".
