#12795: Add more types to System.Posix.Types -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: DanielG | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: | Version: libraries/base | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- A whole lot of types are still missing from `System.Posix.Types` as noted in a TODO comment in the code: {{{ --- ToDo: blksize_t, clockid_t, blkcnt_t, fsblkcnt_t, fsfilcnt_t, id_t, key_t --- suseconds_t, timer_t, useconds_t }}} Specifically the lack of wrappers for blkcnt_t is causing trouble because it's forcing HFuse to re-implement `unix`'s `FileStatus` type to include the missing `st_blocks` field. See [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/HFuse/docs/System- Fuse.html#t:FileStat FileStat docs on Hackage]. I have patches for `base` and `unix` ready to add wrappers for all the types the comment mentions, let's see if I can figure out how to use Phab ;) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12795 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
