This all looks really good, but I would change one detail:
> +#ifndef compat_arg_u64
> +#define compat_arg_u64(name) u32 name##_lo, u32 name##_hi
> +#define compat_arg_u64_dual(name) u32, name##_lo, u32, name##_hi
> +#define compat_arg_u64_glue(name) (((u64)name##_hi << 32) | \
> + ((u64)name##_lo & 0xffffffffUL))
> +#endif
I would make these endian-specific, and reverse them on big-endian
architectures. That way it
should be possible to share them across all compat architectures
without needing the override
option.
