Subject: [PATCH v2] bitfield: fix *_encode_bits()
Date: Thu, 14 Jun 2018 23:26:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180614212643.29563-1-johannes@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
There's a bug in *_encode_bits() in using ~field_multiplier() for
the check whether or not the constant value fits into the field,
this is wrong and clearly ~field_mask() was intended. This was
triggering for me for both constant and non-constant values.
Additionally, make this case actually into an compile error.
Declaring the extern function that will never exist with just a
warning is pointless as then later we'll just get a link error.
While at it, also fix the indentation in those lines I'm touching.
Fixes: 00b0c9b82663 ("Add primitives for manipulating bitfields both in host- and fixed-endian.")

v2: replace stray tab by space
If you don't mind, I'd like to take this through the networking
tree(s) as a fix since I have some pending code that depends on
it.
