One the one hand that wouldn't be 100% right because according to ANSI C !(0) is just != 0 but no one says it is 1.
On another hand as far as I can see polarity and active fields are both defined as "unsigned long <name> :1" in the gpio_pwm structure. And that means they can be equal only to 0 or 1. So simple (polarity ^ active) is the right choice as far as the original decision.
What is strange for me is that resulting control flow is not right representation of what is happening. I mean that actually one should perform a call to an external function with an argument that depends on values of two variables. While this code is equal to call function A if some variable is not equal to 0 with argument depending on value of some other variable else call function B. I hope you understood what I'm trying to say.
Therefore even if you wish to leave if statement (not sure that gcc would optimize that) the right control flow representation should be the following:
.....
if (gp->active)
value = ((gp->polarity)?1:0);
else
value = ((gp->polarity)?0:1);
gpio_direction_output(gp->gpio, value);
.....
The second strange thing is "unsigned long <name>:1". I'm not sure but as far as I can remember the right way to define several-bits field is "int <name>:1". But I might be mistaken.
Best regards. Stas.
