As this seems to be used uniquely for printing stuff, a couple of macros could be used instead. Something like #define V4L2_FOURCC_CONV "%c%c%c%c%s" #define V4L2_FOURCC_TO_CONV(fourcc) \ fourcc & 0x7f, (fourcc >> 8) & 0x7f, (fourcc >> 16) & 0x7f, \ (fourcc >> 24) & 0x7f, fourcc & BIT(31) ? "-BE" : "" You could use it with printk-style functions, e.g. printk("blah fourcc " V4L2_FOURCC_CONV " is a nice format", V4L2_FOURCC_TO_CONV(fourcc)); I guess it'd be better to add more parentheses around "fourcc" but it'd be less clear here that way. -- Regards, Sakari Ailus e-mail: sakari.ailus@xxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
