NAME

Q_FRAWMASK, Q_GFRAW, Q_GFABSVAL, Q_GFVAL, Q_SFVAL – fixed-point math functions which manipulate the fractional data bits

CONTENTS

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/qmath.h>

ITYPE
Q_FRAWMASK(QTYPE q);

ITYPE
Q_GFRAW(QTYPE q);

ITYPE
Q_GFABSVAL(QTYPE q);

ITYPE
Q_GFVAL(QTYPE q);

QTYPE
Q_SFVAL(QTYPE q, ITYPE fv);

DESCRIPTION

Q_FRAWMASK() returns a q, Ns, -specific bit mask for q, Ap, s fractional data bits.

Q_GFRAW() returns q, Ap, s raw masked fractional data bits.

Q_GFABSVAL() and Q_GFVAL() return the absolute and real values of q, Ap, s fractional data bits respectively.

Q_SFVAL() sets q, Ap, s fractional data bits to the value fv.

All of those functions operate on the following data types: s8q_t, u8q_t, s16q_t, u16q_t, s32q_t, u32q_t, s64q_t, and u64q_t, which are referred to generically as QTYPE. The ITYPE refers to the stdint(7) integer types.

For more details, see qmath(3).

RETURN VALUES

Q_FRAWMASK(), Q_GFRAW(), Q_GFABSVAL() and Q_GFVAL() return their respective values as integers of the same underlying ITYPE as q.

Q_SFVAL() returns the value of q post set.

SEE ALSO

errno(2), qmath(3), stdint(7)

HISTORY

The qmath(3) functions first appeared in FreeBSD 13.0 .

“ Ken Thompson has an automobile which he helped design. Unlike most automobiles, it has neither speedometer, nor gas gauge, nor any of the other numerous idiot lights which plague the modern driver. Rather, if the driver makes a mistake, a giant “?” lights up in the center of the dashboard. “The experienced driver,” says Thompson, “will usually know what's wrong.” ”
