[PATCH] Process Events: Fix biarch compatibility issue. use __u64 timestamp
Events sent by Process Events Connector from a 64-bit kernel are not binary
compatible with a 32-bit userspace program because the "timestamp" field
(struct timespec) is not arch independent. This affects the fields that
follow "timestamp" as they will be be off by 8 bytes.
This is a problem for 32-bit userspace programs running with 64-bit kernels
on ppc64, s390, x86-64.. any "biarch" system.
Matt had submitted a different solution to lkml as an RFC earlier. We have
since switched to a solution recommended by Evgeniy Polyakov.
This patch fixes the problem by changing the timestamp to be a __u64, which
stores the number of nanoseconds.
Tested on a x86_64 system with both 32 bit application and 64 bit
application and on a i386 system.
