[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] bitops.h: Add field32() and field64() functions to extract bitfields |
Date: |
Wed, 27 Jun 2012 11:29:13 +0100 |
Add field32() and field64() functions which extract a particular
bit field from a word and return it. Based on an idea by Jia Liu.
Suggested-by: Jia Liu <address@hidden>
Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <address@hidden>

v1->v2: added missing brackets to field32() to bring it in to line
with field64()
(Still using 'int' rather than 'unsigned' for bit numbers as per
rationale in previous discussion.)
