2003-01-24Ok, people are probably going to hate me for this... This commit changes theEric Andersen
type of 'struct stat' and 'struct stat64' so they use consistant types. This change is the result of a bug I found while trying to use GNU tar. The problem was caused by our using kernel types within struct stat and trying to directly compare these values with standard types. Trying an 'if (a < b)' when 'a' is an 'unsigned long' and 'b' is an 'int' leads to very different results then when comparing entities of the same type (i.e. time_t values).... Grumble. Nasty stuff, but I'm glad I got this out of the way now. As a result of this fix, uClibc 0.9.17 will not be binary compatible with earlier releases. I have always warned people this can and will happen. -Erik
2002-08-24Tweak things so that struct stat and struct stat64 (seem to) work onManuel Novoa III
i386. This is for Erik to look at wrt the other archs.
2002-08-23Split out the definition of struct stat into the new archEric Andersen
specific bits/kernel_stat.h file. -Erik
2002-08-22Rework struct stat/stat64 handling to eliminate kernel headersEric Andersen
-Erik
2002-08-19Eliminate wrapping of struct stat and use the kernel versionEric Andersen
directly. Eliminate all the attendant baggage. Fix internal types to match kernel types more closely. -Erik
2002-03-01Major rework of the include files to eliminate redundancyEric Andersen
and to better support each arch. This is a really big patch... -Erik
