[PATCH 2/4] bitfield: Introduce the FIELD_MODIFY() macro

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It is a common code pattern to modify a bitfield by masking the field
and performing a bitwise OR with the respective FIELD_PREP. Wrap such a
task into a macro by introducing FIELD_MODIFY() which modifies the field
specified by a mask from a bitfield by putting a val in the field.
