[fuse-devel] 64 bit RH system signed/unsigned incongruity

[Gerard J. C. <gj...@ci...>]

Hi All,

I don't think this is a fuse issue but I would like to confirm this.

When compiling on a Red Hat  2.6.9-42.ELsmp the stat structure and the 
read length mis-match as signed and unsigned integers.

So in the fuse read: read(const char *path, char *buf, size_t size, 
off_t offset, struct fuse_file_info *fi)

The size_t in the buf size mismatches signed/unsigned  with the stat 
structure element st_size which is __off64_t.

I get a little dizzy searching through all the #ifdef's trying to find 
which one is uint64_t and which one is int64_t.

There are no signing problems on 32 bit RH systems. Right now I am 
casting the buff's size_t to __off64_t, I hope that is the right direction.

Any comments?
