NAME
types - primitive system data types
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
DESCRIPTION
The data types defined in the include file are used in Oreo
System code; some data of these types are accessible to user
code:
typedef struct { int r[1]; } *physadr;
typedef longdaddr_t;
typedef char *caddr_t;
typedef unsigned intuint;
typedef unsigned shortushort;
typedef ushortino_t;
typedef shortcnt_t;
typedef longtime_t;
typedef intlabel_t[10];
typedef shortdev_t;
typedef longoff_t;
typedef longpaddr_t;
typedef longkey_t;
The form daddrt is used for disk addresses except in an i-
node on disk, see fs(4). Times are encoded in seconds since
00:00:00 GMT, January 1, 1970. The major and minor parts of
a device code specify kind and unit number of a device and
are installation-dependent. Offsets are measured in bytes
from the beginning of a file. The labelt variables are
used to save the processor state while another process is
running.
