From 816ad8f1e498fe5e9e992da137316302219f2137 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Oltean Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2024 14:51:52 -0700 Subject: lib: packing: remove kernel-doc from header file It is not necessary to have the kernel-doc duplicated both in the header and in the implementation. It is better to have it near the implementation of the function, since in C, a function can have N declarations, but only one definition.

The same function is used both when "pbuf" is input and "uval" is output, as in the other way around. Create 2 wrapper functions where const correctness can be ensured. Do ugly type casts inside, to be able to reuse packing() as currently implemented - which will _not_ modify the input argument. Also, take the opportunity to change the type of startbit and endbit to size_t - an unsigned type - in these new function prototypes. When int, an extra check for negative values is necessary. Hopefully, when packing() goes away completely, that check can be dropped. My concern is that code which does rely on the conditional directionality of packing() is harder to refactor without blowing up in size. So it may take a while to completely eliminate packing(). But let's make alternatives available for those who do not need that.
