Hi Martin and Jerome,
Thank you very much for your reply. I have learned a lot from your
communication.

I couldn't agree with you more. I have verified it on a 64-bit S4
platform. Please refer to the attachment for verification output
information.
I will prepare the second version of patch according to the example
ideas you provided.
