Ah, ok. You could cover many of the ioctls (the ones which only t
basically I am trying to implement ioctl for the Posix library .. so a
possible signtaure would be:
fdIoctl :: Fd -> Int -> Ptr Word 8 -> IO( Ptr Word8)

a couple of concrete examples:
typedef struct {char a; int b; char str[8]} type1;
typedef struct {long c; char d} type2;
So to pthread_create (just an example function) we could be passing a struct
of type1 or a struct of type2 .. i.e. arbitrary length and content ... I am
trying to better under

Let's take a concrete but "made up" case .. suppose we want to call through
to pthread_create and pass the (void *) argument to pthread_create which in
turn gets interpreted by the pthread that is launched. How would one
populate the C struct that is passed to the launched pthread keeping in mind

Hello,
Ok .. I am writing a Haskell function that will call down into the ANSI
C library .. blah :: -> Ptr Word8 -> The underlying C function
that "blah" is calling has a "void *" so I am using "Ptr Word 8" to model
the "void *". I propose to have the callers of function "blah"
