Is this reasonable or would you still prefer a pointer?Ok, just document it really well that this is NOT a real address used by the kernel. As it is, that's not obvious at all.
Thanks. I'll do that.
And if this crosses the user/kernel boundry, it needs to be __u64 right?
This one doesn't cross the user/kernel boundary. The kernel programs a value in this struct for the hardware to consume. But there might be other places where I have missed that. I'll fix those. Thanks, Sohil
