Mike:
Are you sure you want to do this:
- char ac_pad[10]; /* Accounting Padding Bytes */ + __u32 ac_uid32; /* Accounting Real 32bit User ID */ + __u32 ac_gid32; /* Accounting Real 32bit Group ID */ + char ac_pad[2]; /* Accounting Padding Bytes */
This changes the size of the accounting structure because the new fields are padded to 4 byte alignment.
Support for process accounting was part of my original patches for 32 bit UIDs, but it never got picked up. I think that at the time there was an expectation that accounting was going to be replaced entirely with new code (SGI accounting stuff?)
Here's an updated version of my patch:

Thanks,
