I will try to do this.

Ok, I will add some documentation.

When I submit the next version, I will cover this in my cover letter.

Will fix this as mentioned before.

Will fix this.

I will try to do this though it will take a week to get how much I can
do with siginfo as the glibc side can be a pain to work with. The
kernel is cleaner here since it is always 64bit.

This has to stay long as POSIX defines it as a long type as mentioned
in the header file. I will use an anonymous union/struct to get the
correct definition for ilp32. I have to also fix the ptrace interface
after I do this.

POSIX defines it as long as mentioned above. I don't think we want
ILP32 to violate POSIX here if we can not help it.

This was due to the order of the patches were applied and I did not
notice the breakage until after I finished the last one. I will fix
this so it is correctly done before I submit the next version of the
patches.

Yes I agree.

This one is a little harder at least in glibc itself. I tried a few
times but I always failed due to not having that much experience with
the code there but I will try one more time.

Here is some additional ones I can up with after understanding this
code better:\
/* Pointer in struct */
#define sys_mount compat_sys_mount
/* NUMA */
/* unsigned long bitmaps */
#define sys_get_mempolicy compat_sys_get_mempolicy
#define sys_set_mempolicy compat_sys_set_mempolicy
#define sys_mbind compat_sys_mbind
/* array of pointers */
/* unsigned long bitmaps */
#define sys_migrate_pages compat_sys_migrate_pages
/* Scheduler */
/* unsigned long bitmaps */
#define sys_sched_setaffinity compat_sys_sched_setaffinity
#define sys_sched_getaffinity compat_sys_sched_getaffinity
/* iov usage */
#define sys_keyctl compat_sys_keyctl
/* aio */
/* Pointer to Pointer */
#define sys_io_setup compat_sys_io_setup
/* Array of pointers */
#define sys_io_submit compat_sys_io_submit
--- CUT ----
I added a couple of comments on why the ones listed above are needed.
Also I don't think ilp32 needs its own sys_ptrace rather than using
the compat one.
