NAME

Q_IRAWMASK, Q_GIRAW, Q_GIABSVAL, Q_GIVAL, Q_SIVAL – fixed-point math functions which manipulate the integer data bits

CONTENTS

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/qmath.h>

ITYPE
Q_IRAWMASK(QTYPE q);

ITYPE
Q_GIRAW(QTYPE q);

ITYPE
Q_GIABSVAL(QTYPE q);

ITYPE
Q_GIVAL(QTYPE q);

QTYPE
Q_SIVAL(QTYPE q, ITYPE iv);

DESCRIPTION

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

Q_GIRAW() returns q, Ap, s raw masked integer data bits.

Q_GIABSVAL() and Q_GIVAL() return the absolute and real values of q, Ap, s integer data bits respectively.

Q_SIVAL() sets q, Ap, s integer data bits to the value iv.

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_IRAWMASK(), Q_GIRAW(), Q_GIABSVAL() and Q_GIVAL() return their respective values as integers of the same underlying ITYPE as q.

Q_SIVAL() returns the value of q post change.

SEE ALSO

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

HISTORY

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

A typical Unix /bin or /usr/bin directory contains a hundred different kinds of programs, written by dozens of egotistical programmers, each with its own syntax, operating paradigm, rules of use ... strategies for specifying options, and different sets of constraints.
