NAME

u64_le, u64_be, u64p_le, u64p_be - convert an u64 to little/big endian

u64pa_le, u64pa_be - convert an array of u64 into little/big endian

SYNOPSIS

#include <limb/u64.h>

u64 u64_le(u64 u)
u64 u64_be(u64 u)

void u64p_le(u64 *val)
void u64p_be(u64 *val)

void u64pa_le(u64 *val, size_t len)
void u64pa_be(u64 *val, size_t len)

DESCRIPTION

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

The u64_le() and u64_be() macros will return the value after having read the given number u as a little endian or big endian value, respectively.

The u64p_le() and u64p_be() macros are similar, only they take a pointer to an u64 and will convert it into little endian or big endian, respectively.

Finally the u64pa_le() and u64pa_be() macros are similar to the previous two, only they take an array of u64 of size len and convert every element.

RETURN VALUE

Only u64_le() and u64_be() have a return value, that of the number u read as a little or big endian number, respectively.
