NAME

u16_le, u16_be, u16p_le, u16p_be - convert an u16 to little/big endian

u16pa_le, u16pa_be - convert an array of u16 into little/big endian

SYNOPSIS

#include <limb/u16.h>

u16 u16_le(u16 u)
u16 u16_be(u16 u)

void u16p_le(u16 *val)
void u16p_be(u16 *val)

void u16pa_le(u16 *val, size_t len)
void u16pa_be(u16 *val, size_t len)

DESCRIPTION

All of these aim to ensure a value or variable is in expected endianness.

The u16_le() and u16_be() macros will return the value after having read the given number u as a little endian or big endian value, respectively.

The u16p_le() and u16p_be() macros are similar, only they take a pointer to an u16 and will convert it into little endian or big endian, respectively.

Finally the u16pa_le() and u16pa_be() macros are similar to the previous two, only they take an array of u16 of size len and convert every element.

RETURN VALUE

Only u16_le() and u16_be() have a return value, that of the number u read as a little or big endian number, respectively.
