73.Sh DESCRIPTION
74These macros operate on strings of bits.
75.Pp
76The macro
77.Fn bit_alloc
78returns a pointer of type
79.Dq Fa "bitstr_t *"
80to sufficient space to store
81.Fa nbits
82bits, or
83.Dv NULL
84if no space is available.
85.Pp
86The macro
87.Fn bit_decl
88allocates sufficient space to store
89.Fa nbits
90bits on the stack.
91.Pp
92The macro
93.Fn bitstr_size
94returns the number of elements of type
95.Fa bitstr_t
96necessary to store
97.Fa nbits
98bits.
99This is useful for copying bit strings.
100.Pp
101The macros
102.Fn bit_clear
103and
104.Fn bit_set
105clear or set the zero-based numbered bit
106.Fa bit ,
107in the bit string
108.Ar name .
109.Pp
110The
111.Fn bit_nset
112and
113.Fn bit_nclear
114macros
115set or clear the zero-based numbered bits from
116.Fa start
117through
118.Fa stop
119in the bit string
120.Ar name .
121.Pp
122The
123.Fn bit_test
124macro
125evaluates to non-zero if the zero-based numbered bit
126.Fa bit
127of bit string
128.Fa name
129is set, and zero otherwise.
130.Pp
131The
132.Fn bit_ffs
133macro
134stores in the location referenced by
135.Fa value
136the zero-based number of the first bit set in the array of
137.Fa nbits
138bits referenced by
139.Fa name .
140If no bits are set, the location referenced by
141.Fa value
142is set to \-1.
143.Pp
144The macro
145.Fn bit_ffc
146stores in the location referenced by
147.Fa value
148the zero-based number of the first bit not set in the array of
149.Fa nbits
150bits referenced by
151.Fa name .
152If all bits are set, the location referenced by
153.Fa value
154is set to \-1.
155.Pp
156The arguments to these macros are evaluated only once and may safely
157have side effects.
