So how does this belong to HN?

The movslq instruction will sign extend the upper 32 bits.

Actually he clearly misunderstands the difference, IA-32 refers to x86, which he then says IA-64, which refers to Itanium, which is sort of a bad comparison then.

No, I am not sure why this happens.

His scope of talk sounds as if he is referring to x86-64. Many people mistake the IA-64 for x86-64, that's why I assumed he'd be talking about it. Not to mention that IA-32 refers …

Doesn't happen for me. Both GCC and Clang compile it fine.

Right, C compilers will automatically known it's part of libc. You didn't need to do the separate file thing, you could just have the wrapper and it will trigger the movslq, or a c…

Just think of the generated assembly.

No. The int to int * truncation does not happen, the cast does not matter. What matters is the `int *p' which is 64-bit on 64-bit systems, so the compiler will just move the return…

There is no cast that happens behind the scene, look at the generated assembly.

Has nothing to do with includes, it has no error. The C compiler will automatically know its imported. He probably thinks that `int *` is 32-bit regardless.

No. Finland speaks Finnish and Swedish, and they lie within the Nordic region.

Renamed to KSM then, thanks!

corysama, yeah, it's based on KVM, I am not very creative in the naming field. Yes, it's kernel based. Thanks for the suggestion.
