Dear Stefano Babic,
In message 1363248561-11974-1-git-send-email-sbabic@denx.de you wrote:
2GB can not fit in 32-bits, so use ulong instead.
<nitpick>
unsigned long is 32 bits, too.
And, strictly speaking, GB is a decimal unit, so 2 GB = 2e9 = 0x77359400 which fits nicely into a signed 32 bit number.
What you actually mean is: 2 GiB cannot be expressed as a 32 bit signed number.
</nitpick>
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
