/*
 * linux/byteorder_generic.h
 * Generic Byte-reordering support
 *
 * The "... p" macros, like le64_to_cpup, can be used with pointers
 * to unaligned data, but there will be a performance penalty on 
 * some architectures.  Use get_unaligned for unaligned data.
 *
 * Francois-Rene Rideau <[email protected]> 19970707
 *    gathered all the good ideas from all asm-foo/byteorder.h into one file,
 *    cleaned them up.
 *    I hope it is compliant with non-GCC compilers.
 *    I decided to put __BYTEORDER_HAS_U64__ in byteorder.h,
 *    because I wasn't sure it would be ok to put it in types.h
 *    Upgraded it to 2.1.43
 * Francois-Rene Rideau <[email protected]> 19971012
 *    Upgraded it to 2.1.57
 *    to please Linus T., replaced huge #ifdef's between little/big endian
 *    by nestedly #include'd files.
 * Francois-Rene Rideau <[email protected]> 19971205
 *    Made it to 2.1.71; now a facelift:
 *    Put files under include/linux/byteorder/
 *    Split swab from generic support.
 *
 * TODO:
 *   = Regular kernel maintainers could also replace all these manual
 *    byteswap macros that remain, disseminated among drivers,
 *    after some grep or the sources...
 *   = Linus might want to rename all these macros and files to fit his taste,
 *    to fit his personal naming scheme.
 *   = it seems that a few drivers would also appreciate
 *    nybble swapping support...
 *   = every architecture could add their byteswap macro in asm/byteorder.h
 *    see how some architectures already do (i386, alpha, ppc, etc)
 *   = cpu_to_beXX and beXX_to_cpu might some day need to be well
 *    distinguished throughout the kernel. This is not the case currently,
 *    since little endian, big endian, and pdp endian machines needn't it.
 *    But this might be the case for, say, a port of Linux to 20/21 bit
 *    architectures (and F21 Linux addict around?).

/*
 * The following macros are to be defined by <asm/byteorder.h>:
 *
 * Conversion of long and short int between network and host format
 *  ntohl(__u32 x)
 *  ntohs(__u16 x)
 *  htonl(__u32 x)
 *  htons(__u16 x)
 * It seems that some programs (which? where? or perhaps a standard? POSIX?)
 * might like the above to be functions, not macros (why?).
 * if that's true, then detect them, and take measures.
 * Anyway, the measure is: define only ___ntohl as a macro instead,
 * and in a separate file, have
 * unsigned long inline ntohl(x){return ___ntohl(x);}
 *
 * The same for constant arguments
 *  __constant_ntohl(__u32 x)
 *  __constant_ntohs(__u16 x)
 *  __constant_htonl(__u32 x)
 *  __constant_htons(__u16 x)
 *
 * Conversion of XX-bit integers (16- 32- or 64-)
 * between native CPU format and little/big endian format
 * 64-bit stuff only defined for proper architectures
 *  cpu_to_[bl]eXX(__uXX x)
 *  [bl]eXX_to_cpu(__uXX x)
 *
 * The same, but takes a pointer to the value to convert
 *  cpu_to_[bl]eXXp(__uXX x)
 *  [bl]eXX_to_cpup(__uXX x)
 *
 * The same, but change in situ
 *  cpu_to_[bl]eXXs(__uXX x)
 *  [bl]eXX_to_cpus(__uXX x)
 *
 * See asm-foo/byteorder.h for examples of how to provide
 * architecture-optimized versions
