make brace placement in public header struct definitions consistent placing the opening brace on the same line as the struct keyword/tag is the style I prefer and seems to be the prevailing practice in more recent additions. these changes were generated by the command: find include/ arch//bits -name '.h' \ -exec sed -i '/^struct [^;{]*$/{N;s/\n/ /;}' {} + and subsequently checked by hand to ensure that the regex did not pick up any false positives. 2016-07-03 18:40:11 +00:00			`struct msghdr {`

workaround broken msghdr struct on 64bit linux POSIX clearly specifies the type of msg_iovlen and msg_controllen, and Linux ignores it and makes them both size_t instead. to work around this we add padding (instead of just using the wrong types like glibc does), but we also need to patch-up the struct before passing it to the kernel in case the caller did not zero-fill it. if i could trust the kernel to just ignore the upper 32 bits, this would not be necessary, but i don't think it will ignore them... 2011-04-08 13:24:19 +00:00			`int msg_iovlen, __pad1;`

workaround another sendmsg kernel bug on 64-bit machines the kernel wrongly expects the cmsg length field to be size_t instead of socklen_t. in order to work around the issue, we have to impose a length limit and copy to a local buffer. the length limit should be more than sufficient for any real-world use; these headers are only used for passing file descriptors and permissions between processes over unix sockets. 2012-07-13 01:37:54 +00:00
