18 #ifndef LTTNG_OPTIONAL_H
19 #define LTTNG_OPTIONAL_H
25 * Define wrapper structure representing an optional value.
27 * This macro defines an "is_set" boolean field that must be checked
28 * when accessing the optional field. This "is_set" field provides
29 * the semantics that would be expected of a typical "raw pointer" field
30 * which would be checked for NULL.
32 * Prefer using this macro where "special" values would be used, e.g.
33 * -1ULL for uint64_t types.
35 * Declaration example:
38 * LTTNG_OPTIONAL(int, b);
42 * struct my_struct foo = LTTNG_OPTIONAL_INIT;
44 * LTTNG_OPTIONAL_SET(&foo.b, 42);
46 * printf("%d", foo.b.value);
49 * LTTNG_OPTIONAL_UNSET(&foo.b);

58 * Alias used for communication structures. If the layout of an LTTNG_OPTIONAL
59 * is changed, the original layout should still be used for communication
62 * LTTNG_OPTIONAL_COMM should be combined with the LTTNG_PACKED macro when
63 * used for IPC / network communication.
65 #define LTTNG_OPTIONAL_COMM LTTNG_OPTIONAL
68 * This macro is available as a 'convenience' to allow sites that assume
69 * an optional value is set to assert() that it is set when accessing it.
71 * Since this returns the 'optional' by value, it is not suitable for all
72 * wrapped optional types. It is meant to be used with PODs.
74 #define LTTNG_OPTIONAL_GET(optional) \
76 assert(optional.is_set); \
81 * Initialize an optional field.
83 * The wrapped field is set to the value it would gave if it had static storage
86 #define LTTNG_OPTIONAL_INIT { .is_set = 0 }
88 /* Set the value of an optional field. */
89 #define LTTNG_OPTIONAL_SET(field_ptr, val) \
