Overview

Q_IFRAWMASK() returns a q-specific bit mask for q's combined integer and fractional data bits.

Q_IFVALIMASK() and Q_IFVALFMASK() return q-specific bit masks for the integer and fractional bits of q's combined integer and fractional data bits value, i.e., are applicable to the values returned by Q_GIFABSVAL() and Q_GIFVAL().

Q_GIFRAW() returns q's raw masked integer/fractional data bits.

Q_GIFABSVAL() and Q_GIFVAL() return the absolute and real values of q's integer/fractional data bits respectively.

Q_SIFVAL() sets q's combined integer/fractional data bits to the value ifv, whereas Q_SIFVALS() independently sets q's integer and fractional data bits to the separate values iv and fv.

All of those functions operate on the following data types: s8q_t, u8q_t, s16q_t, u16q_t, s32q_t, u32q_t, s64q_t, and u64q_t, which are referred to generically as QTYPE. The ITYPE refers to the stdint(7) integer types.

Return values

Q_IFRAWMASK(), Q_IFVALIMASK(), Q_IFVALFMASK(), Q_GIFABSVAL(), Q_GIFVAL(), Q_GIFRAW(), Q_GIFABSVAL() and Q_GIFVAL() return their respective values as integers of the same underlying ITYPE as q.

Q_SIFVAL() and Q_SIFVALS() return the value of q post change.
