Re: struct acct uses 16bit uids :-(
Andreas: My changes for process accounting were not accepted along with the rest of the 32-bit UID patches. The current state of things as I understand it is that SGI is working on some "enhanced" accounting support for Linux, which may end up replacing the current process accounting. (stuff like job accounting and more resource usage statistics) Of course, if Linux 2.4 were to include 32-bit UID fields in the current accounting structure like this patch: http://www.engin.umich.edu/caen/systems/Linux/code/misc/2.3/2110/linux-acct.patch we here at U-M would have no objection :) Andreas Jaeger ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > Hi, > > is anybody maintaining the BSD process accounting?

struct acct uses 16bit uids :-(
Hi, is anybody maintaining the BSD process accounting? It's currently broken since it still uses 16 bit uids :-( struct acct in contains: /* * No binary format break with 2.0 - but when we hit 32bit uid we'll * have to bite one */ __u16 ac_uid; /* Accounting Real User ID */ __u16 ac_gid; /* Accounting Real Group ID */ Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger SuSE Labs [EMAIL PROTECTED] private [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.suse.de/~aj - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
