We went through this same discussion involving the wdog wdparm_t type some time back. There was a Rube Goldberg-ish proposal to copy all of the data into an array of type wdparm_t instead of passing varargs to avoid varying sizes of arguments. Instead, I said that it was the caller's resposibility to cast each argument to wdparm_t. We can enforce that casting inside of the OS, but we cannot enforce that casting across the POSIX ioctl interface. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
