Subject: [PATCH] Use __kernel_long_t in struct msgbuf
Date: Wed, 25 Dec 2013 07:58:50 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131225155850.GA26252@gmail.com> (raw)

X32 msgsnd/msgrcv system calls are the same as x86-64 msgsnd/msgrcv system
calls, which use 64-bit integer for long in struct msgbuf . But x32 long
is 32 bit.  This patch replaces long in struct msgbuf with __kernel_long_t.
