Thanks for the comments!
Do you mean doing it like the following?
struct irte {
union {
struct {
__u64 present : 1,
fpd : 1,
dst_mode : 1,
redir_hint : 1,
trigger_mode : 1,
dlvry_mode : 3,
avail : 4,
__reserved_1 : 4,
vector : 8,
__reserved_2 : 8,
dest_id : 32;
};
struct {
__u64 present : 1,
fpd : 1,
__reserved_1 : 6,
avail : 4,
__reserved_2 : 2,
urg : 1,
pst : 1,
vector : 8,
__reserved_3 : 14,
pda_l : 26;
};
__u64 low;
};
union {
struct {
__u64 sid : 16,
sq : 2,
svt : 2,
__reserved_3 : 44;
};
struct {
__u64 sid : 16,
sq : 2,
svt : 2,
__reserved_4 : 12,
pda_h : 32;
};
__u64 high;
};
};
In fact, I also intended to make these two defines as one, however, this code
will get build
error ("duplicated member") with new version of GCC, such as, gcc 4.9.1. I
cannot find a
good way to handle this gracefully, since I don't want to impact the existing
usage of this
structure . Do you have any ideas about this? Thanks a lot!
Thanks,
Feng
