Whats the difference between 32bit and 64bit OS's or applications. I understand it a little but its just not clicking the way the teacher explained to me
thanks, any info would be much appreciated (1 Reply)
when using the command :
cat /proc/cpuinfo I get some basic info back on the cpu..
but it doesn't tell me if I am using a 64 or 32 bit processor ..
a) is this the right command to find this ?
b) if it is not what is ? and how do I get that information..
thanx moxxx68 (2 Replies)
Hi,
We are porting our application from 32bit to 64bit.
We tried -xarch=v9, -xarc=v9a and -xport64=full options so that compiler to issue 64bit porting warnings.
But we are not getting any porting warninings
WE are using CC 5.5 compiler on sparc-solaris m/c.
Please tell us some powerful... (0 Replies)
Where can I get a list that maps the each Linux version to corresponding 32/64 bits model?
e.g.
OS -> Model (ILP32, LP64, ...)
RHLE3 -> ?
RHLE4 -> ?
RHLE5 -> ?
...
It would be better if there is such a list that contains most of current UNIX OS versions.

Is there an 'easy' way to convert 32Bit code to 64Bit code. I have this benchmark i need to run on different machines and it would be nice if i could run it on the 64 bit machines ass wel.
The output when compiling(1) and running(2) are the following:

To make a programming language you need a compiler, so what was the first programming language and how was is created if you need the compiler first?
The compiler itself is considered as a high language comparing to the machine! since the compiler is not created in 1's and 0's...

i have solaris 10 x86 64bit installed on my pc (dell 3100). i then decided to move my hard drive to another pc (dell 4600). I noticed that each time i boot up, the OS show as 32 bit (instead of 64bit) and i can't even get past this stage to the login page.
when i moved it back to dell 3100 it... (13 Replies)
I have an application which builds and executes without error on a 32bit implementation of Linux. When I transferred the code to a new project on a 64bit implementation, the code will build without error, but the pthread functions, such as pthread_attr_setschedparam() return an 'Invalid Argument'...

Hi,
I have a C code which builds and works fine on 32bit linux machine.
Now i want to convert that code to build and run on 64 bit linux machine. I dont want to maintain two separate sources for 32 and 64 bit build. Same source should get build on 32 as well as 64 bit machine (when a... (2 Replies)

lint
lint(1B) SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands lint(1B)NAME
lint - C program verifier
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/lint [options]
DESCRIPTION
/usr/ucb/lint is the interface to the BSD Compatibility Package C program verifier. It is a script that looks for the link
/usr/ccs/bin/ucblint to the C program verifier. /usr/ccs/bin/ucblint is available only with the SPROcc package, whose default location is
/opt/SUNWspro. /usr/ucb/lint is identical to /usr/ccs/bin/ucblint, except that BSD headers are used and BSD libraries are linked before
base libraries. The /opt/SUNWspro/man/man1/lint.1 man page is available only with the SPROcc package.
OPTIONS
/usr/ucb/lint accepts the same options as /usr/ccs/bin/ucblint, with the following exceptions:
-Idir Search dir for included files whose names do not begin with a slash (/) prior to searching the usual directories. The
directories for multiple -I options are searched in the order specified. The preprocessor first searches for #include files
in the directory containing sourcefile, and then in directories named with -I options (if any), then /usr/ucbinclude, and
finally, in /usr/include.
-Ldir Add dir to the list of directories searched for libraries by /usr/ccs/bin/ucblint. This option is passed to
/usr/ccs/bin/ld. Directories specified with this option are searched before /usr/ucblib and /usr/lib.
-Y P, dir Change the default directory used for finding libraries.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
FILES
/usr/lint/bin/ld link editor
/usr/lib/libc C library
/usr/ucbinclude BSD Compatibility directory for header files
/usr/ucblib BSD Compatibility directory for libraries
/usr/ucblib/libucb BSD Compatibility C library
/usr/lib/libsocket library containing socket routines
/usr/lib/libnsl library containing network functions
/usr/lib/libelf library containing routines to process ELF object files
/usr/lib/libaio library containing asynchronous I/O routines
