--- Comment #1 from Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella at linaro dot org> ---
I am not sure if we should blindly follow Linux interface in this case. All
the POSIX defined socket operations that accepts a flag as argument defines it
as 'int' (recv, recvfrom, recvmsg, send, sendmsg, sendto).
In the case we decide to change it I am not sure if we can just simply change
both the prototype and implementation or if we should provide a compatibility
symbol. My first assumption is it would be possible to just change, since
there is no manipulation inside implementation.
