The only portable way to do this is to use shifts and masks unfortunately. > +struct ipa_imm_cmd_hw_hdr_init_local { > + u64 hdr_table_addr; > + u32 size_hdr_table : 12, > + hdr_addr : 16, > + rsvd : 4; > +}; I would also add a 'u32 pad' member at the end to make the padding explicit here, or mark the first member as '__aligned(4) __packed' if you want to avoid the padding. > +void *ipahal_dma_shared_mem_write_pyld(struct ipa_dma_mem *mem, u32 offset) > +{ > + struct ipa_imm_cmd_hw_dma_shared_mem *data; > + > + ipa_assert(mem->size < 1 << 16); /* size is 16 bits wide */ > + ipa_assert(offset < 1 << 16); /* local_addr is 16 bits wide */ > + > + data = kzalloc(sizeof(*data), GFP_KERNEL); > + if (!data) > + return NULL; > + > + data->size = mem->size; > + data->local_addr = offset; > + data->direction = 0; /* 0 = write to IPA; 1 = read from IPA */ > + data->skip_pipeline_clear = 0; > + data->pipeline_clear_options = IPAHAL_HPS_CLEAR; > + data->system_addr = mem->phys; > + > + return data; > +} The 'void *' return looks odd here, and also the dynamic allocation. It looks to me like all these functions could be better done the other way round, basically putting the ipa_imm_cmd_hw_dma_shared_mem etc structures on the stack of the caller. At least for this one, the dynamic allocation doesn't help at all because the caller is the same that frees it again after the command. I suspect the same is true for a lot of those commands. Arnd
