8/* ioctl command encoding: 32 bits total, command in lower 16 bits,
9 * size of the parameter structure in the lower 14 bits of the
10 * upper 16 bits.
11 * Encoding the size of the parameter structure in the ioctl request
12 * is useful for catching programs compiled with old versions
13 * and to avoid overwriting user space outside the user buffer area.
14 * The highest 2 bits are reserved for indicating the ``access mode''.
15 * NOTE: This limits the max parameter size to 16kB -1 !

19 * I don't really have any idea about what this should look like, so
20 * for the time being, this is heavily based on the PC definitions.

23/*
24 * The following is for compatibility across the various Linux
25 * platforms. The i386 ioctl numbering scheme doesn't really enforce
26 * a type field. De facto, however, the top 8 bits of the lower 16
27 * bits are indeed used as a type field, so we might just as well make
28 * this explicit here. Please be sure to use the decoding macros
29 * below from now on.
