Subject: Re: [fuse-devel] [PATCH 5/7] FUSE: implement ioctl support

One thing to bear in mind is the possibility of 32-bit client programs 
running on a 64-bit platform, so your user-space driver will need be be 
aware of the flavour of the client, and parse the ioctl arguments (and 
in particular, pointers) appropriately.

That's true of a kernel implementation too, of course.
