           Summary: RFE: Abandon rtems_off64_t
           Product: RTEMS
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: RTEMS
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: cpukit
        AssignedTo: joel.sherrill at oarcorp.com
        ReportedBy: ralf.corsepius at rtems.org


cpukit/libcsupport/include/rtems/libio.h contains this:

/**
 * A 64-bit file offset for internal use by RTEMS. Based on the Newlib
 * type.
 */
typedef _off64_t rtems_off64_t;

The rationale behind this escapes me.

I am proposing to abandon this type entirely and to use off_t instead.
