For certain commands (e.g., TIOCSWINSZ, FIONBIO), the Python value may get sign-extended on 64-bit platforms (by implicit type promotion) and it causes annoying warnings from kernel such as this: WARNING pid 24509 (python2.6): ioctl sign-extension ioctl ffffffff8004667e Approved by: python (maintainer timeout)
