Subject: long long on 32-bit machines
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2004 10:04:01 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4017F991.2090604@zytor.com> (raw)
Hi all,
Does anyone happen to know if there are *any* 32-bit architectures (on
which Linux runs) for which the ABI for a "long long" is different from
passing two "longs" in the appropriate order, i.e. (hi,lo) for bigendian
or (lo,hi) for littleendian?
I'd like to switch klibc to use the 64-bit file ABI thoughout, but it's
a considerable porting effort, and I'm trying to figure out how to best
manage it.
