I am all for matching __uN / __sN to uintN_t / intN_t in userspace, but may I suggest the technically simpler and guaranteed-to-be-accurate
/* - * int-ll64 is used everywhere now. + * int-ll64 is used everywhere in kernel now. + * In user space match <stdint.h>. */ +#ifdef __KERNEL__ # include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h> +#elif __has_include (<bits/types.h>) +# include <bits/types.h> +typedef __int8_t __s8; +typedef __uint8_t __u8; +typedef __int16_t __s16; +typedef __uint16_t __u16; +typedef __int32_t __s32; +typedef __uint32_t __u32; +typedef __int64_t __s64; +typedef __uint64_t __u64; +#else +# include <stdint.h> +typedef int8_t __s8; +typedef uint8_t __u8; +typedef int16_t __s16; +typedef uint16_t __u16; +typedef int32_t __s32; +typedef uint32_t __u32; +typedef int64_t __s64; +typedef uint64_t __u64; +#endif
The middle clause could be dropped if we are okay with all uapi headers potentially exposing the non-implementation-namespace names defined by <stdint.h>. I do not know what the musl libc equivalent of <bits/types.h> is.
