Can you extract the masking logic, rather than repeating it 7 times: #define maskbits(a, v, m) ((a) & ~(m) | (v)) And if you're going to the trouble of making a macro, why not make it a bit more useful and have it check that the value and the mask match, ie: (v & ~m == 0) Final random thought, you could make the size/endian an argument: #define setmaskedbits(a, v, m, s) out_##s((a), (in_##s(a) & ~(m) | (v)) cheers -- Michael Ellerman OzLabs, IBM Australia Development Lab wwweb: http://michael.ellerman.id.au phone: +61 2 6212 1183 (tie line 70 21183) We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children. - S.M.A.R.T Person
