And in include/asm-sparc64/fcntl.h, we have
struct flock { short l_type; short l_whence; off_t l_start; off_t l_len; pid_t l_pid; short __unused; }; ... #ifdef __KERNEL__ #define flock64 flock #endif
This definition for flock64 was also introduced in the test7-patch. I reused it for the ia64-architecture fcntl.h in my patch. On a 64 bit plattform there most probably are alignment problems with the struct.
