32 bit processes running on a 64 bit kernel call compat_ioctl so that implementations can revise any structure layout issues. Point compat_ioctl at our normal ioctl because: - All our structures are designed to be the same on 32 and 64 bit, ie we use __aligned_u64 when required and are careful to manage padding. - Any pointers are stored in u64's and userspace is expected to prepare them properly.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
