It think it could be just unsigned long. See > > comment above. > > u32? > > unsigned long would be 64-bit on 64-bit platforms. Thanks, yes for us it's more correct to use u32. I always thing unsigned long is OK in openrisc as we have no 64-bit implementations. But might as well have it correct in case we ever add the 64-bit implementation. -Stafford
