Hello,
I have some questions about device number extension. In Linux kernel 2.6, device number will be extended from 16-bit to 32-bit. All utilities and libraries should make corresponding extension for this new feature in kernel 2.6. I find that “binutils-2.14.90.0.6-3” uses structure dev_t and operates the device number as 16-bit. In file include/mpw/sys/types.h: 8 dev_t is defined as a short
type. It
seems not to correspond to device number extension. --------------------------------------------------
