From: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>

Re-send with patches going to everyone.
(I'd forgotten I'd set 'ccCover = 0'.)

I noticed some very long (18KB) error messages from the compiler.
Turned out they were errors on lines that passed GENMASK() to FIELD_PREP().
Since most of the #defines are already statement functions the values
can be copied to locals so the actual parameters only get expanded once.

The 'bloat' is reduced further by using a simple test to ensure 'reg'
is large enough, slightly simplifying the test for constant 'val' and
only checking 'reg' and 'val' when the parameters are present.

The first two patches are slightly problematic.

drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/nfpcore/nfp_nsp_eth.c manages to use
a #define that should be an internal to bitfield.h, the changed file
is actually more similar to the previous version.

drivers/thunderbolt/tb.h passes a bifield to FIELD_GET(), these can't
be used with sizeof or __auto_type. The usual solution is to add zero,
but that can't be done in FIELD_GET() because it doesn't want the value
promoted to 'int' (no idea how _Generic() treated it.)
The fix is just to add zero at the call site.
(The bitfield seems to be in a structure rad from hardware - no idea
how that works on BE (or any LE that uses an unusual order for bitfields.)

Both changes may need to to through the same tree as the header file changes.

The changes are based on 'next' and contain the addition of field_prep()
and field_get() for non-constant values.

I also know it is the merge window.
I expect to be generating a v2 in the new year (someone always has a comment).

And this one again appeared in my spambox. Have you any ideas why?

So, can you share the before/after?

Not that hard to generate since the kernel makefiles will create foo.i

I would have fed the .i file though xargs - but someone broke it
(there is no option to ignore quotes, and -s70 isn't allowed).
So I used:
tr ' ' '\n' foo.i | (ll=; while read -r l; do ll1="$ll $l"; [ ${#l} = 0 -o ${#ll1} -ge 70 ] && { echo "$ll"; ll="$l";} || ll="$ll1"; done; echo "$ll")

GENMASK(hi, lo)
    ((unsigned long)(((int)sizeof(struct
    {_Static_assert(!(__builtin_choose_expr((sizeof(int) == sizeof(*(8 ?
    ((void *)((long)((lo) > (hi)) * 0l)) : (int *)8))), (lo) > (hi),
    false)), "const_true((lo) > (hi))" " is true");})) +
    (((typeof(unsigned long))((((typeof(unsigned long))1 <<
    (8*sizeof(typeof(unsigned long)) - 1 - (((typeof(unsigned long))(-1))
    < ( typeof(unsigned long))1))) - 1) + ((typeof(unsigned long))1 <<
    (8*sizeof(typeof(unsigned long)) - 1 - (((typeof(unsigned long))(-1))
    < ( typeof(unsigned long))1))))) << (lo) & ((typeof(unsigned
    long))((((typeof(unsigned long))1 << (8*sizeof(typeof(unsigned long))
    - 1 - (((typeof(unsigned long))(-1)) < ( typeof(unsigned long))1))) -
    1) + ((typeof(unsigned long))1 << (8*sizeof(typeof(unsigned long)) -
    1 - (((typeof(unsigned long))(-1)) < ( typeof(unsigned long))1)))))
    >> ((sizeof(unsigned long) * 8) - 1 - (hi)))))

A chunk of that would be removed by changing type_max() to do
2 * (n - 1) + 1 instead of (n - 1) + n, but for unsigned types
it isn't needed.
Changing type_max(t) to (t)-1 GENMASK(hi, lo) becomes
(patch not posted...)
    ((unsigned long)(((int)sizeof(struct
    {_Static_assert(!(__builtin_choose_expr((sizeof(int) == sizeof(*(8 ?
    ((void *)((long)((lo) > (hi)) * 0l)) : (int *)8))), (lo) > (hi),
    false)), "const_true((lo) > (hi))" " is true");})) + ((unsigned long)-1
    << (lo) & (unsigned long)-1 >> ((sizeof(unsigned long) * 8) - 1 - (hi)))))
There are still four expansions of both lo and hi - but they are
usually trivial. 

You asked for this one :-)

I'm getting the copies sent to my gmail account, but gmail has a mind of its own.
It bounces and spams a lot of list emails (never might the emails/minute limit
that meany you only get 'some of' lkml).

The email headers are a slight lie, the From: doesn't match the 'envelope from'.
Basically you can't send more than 100 emails/day (count of To: and Cc:) from a
'free' gmail address, so they are sent from elsewhere (with a 500/day limit).
But I don't want that address appearing in the emails - hence the subterfuge.
But the 'envelope from' is correct for where the emails come from.
(A test email to xxx.gmail.com with an envelope from of xxx.gmail.com sent
from a different smtp server confused gmail! The mail was errored, but it sent
the bounce to itself!)
