.Dd July 28, 2000 .Dt BITMASK_SNPRINTF 9 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm snprintb .Nd bitmask output conversion .Sh SYNOPSIS n util.h .Ft int .Fn "snprintb" "char *buf" "size_t buflen" "const char *fmt" "uint64_t val" .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Fn snprintb function formats a bitmask into a mnemonic form suitable for printing.
p This conversion is useful for decoding bit fields in device registers. It formats the integer .Fa val into the buffer .Fa buf , of size .Fa buflen , using a specified radix and an interpretation of the bits within that integer as though they were flags.
p The decoding directive string .Fa fmt describes how the bitfield is to be interpreted and displayed. The first character of .Fa fmt is a binary character representation of the output numeral base in which the bitfield will be printed before it is decoded. Recognized radix values
q "in C escape-character format" are .Li \e10
q octal , .Li \e12
q decimal , and .Li \e20
q hexadecimal .
p The remaining characters in .Fa fmt are interpreted as a list of bit-position\(endescription pairs. A bit-position\(endescription pair begins with a binary character value that represents the position of the bit being described. A bit position value of one describes the least significant bit. Whereas a position value of 32
q "octal 40, hexadecimal 20, the ASCII space character" describes the most significant bit.
p The remaining characters in a bit-position\(endescription pair are the characters to print should the bit being described be set. Description strings are delimited by the next bit position value character encountered
q "distinguishable by its value being \*[Le] 32" , or the end of the decoding directive string itself. .Sh RETURN VALUES The .Fn snprintb function returns the number of characters that are required to format the value .Fa val given the format string .Fa fmt excluding the terminating NUL. The returned string in .Fa buf is always NUL-terminated. .Sh EXAMPLES Two examples of the old formatting style: d -literal -offset indent snprintb(buf, buflen, "\e10\e2BITTWO\e1BITONE", 3) \(rA "3\*[Lt]BITTWO,BITONE\*[Gt]" snprintb(buf, buflen "\e20\ex10NOTBOOT\ex0fFPP\ex0eSDVMA\ex0cVIDEO" "\ex0bLORES\ex0aFPA\ex09DIAG\ex07CACHE" "\ex06IOCACHE\ex05LOOPBACK\ex04DBGCACHE", 0xe860) \(rA "0xe860\*[Lt]NOTBOOT,FPP,SDVMA,VIDEO,CACHE,IOCACHE\*[Gt]" .Ed .Sh ERRORS If the buffer .Fa buf is too small to hold the formatted output, .Fn snprintb will still return the buffer, containing a truncated string. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr snprintf 3 .Sh HISTORY The .Fn snprintb function was originally implemented as a non-standard .Li %b format string for the kernel .Fn printf function in .Nx 1.5 and earlier releases. It got implemented as .Fn bitmap_snprintf for .Nx 1.6 and this version was used to implement .Fn snprintb . .Sh BUGS .Fn snprintb supports a new extended form of formatting string, which is not yet described here.
