// Test program which explores whether lseek syscall (not llseek!)
// on x32 uses 64-bit offset argument.
// IOW: does _kernel_ truncate it on entry?
// The answer appears to be "no, full 64-bit offset is used".
// strace must show it correctly too - tricky if strace itself is x32 one!
//
// Build: x86_64-gcc -static -Wall -ox32_lseek x32_lseek.c
// Run: $ strace ./x32_lseek 2>&1 | grep lseek | grep 1250999896321
// lseek(0, 1250999896321, SEEK_SET) = 1250999896321
