It seems a candidate as well, if I'm not mistaken.

We can utilize the for_each_set_clump8 macro in the gen_74x164_set_multiple function, but I skipped over it earlier since I noticed it used the BITS_PER_BYTE define rather than a hardcoded 8. If it always loops 8 bits at a time, then we can use the for_each_set_clump8 macro; otherwise we would need the more generic for_each_set_clump macro to handle the non-8-bit looping cases. Will BITS_PER_BYTE always be defined as 8 bits? William Breathitt Gray > > > -- > With Best Regards, > Andy Shevchenko > >

Yes, Linux cannot run on platforms where BITS_PER_BYTE != 8 (no 9-bit bytes ;) include/linux/bits.h:#define BITS_PER_BYTE 8 Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert

It's not correct question, the right one "is the hardware always in 8-bit chunks". And datasheet is crystal clear about this. This very old and famous IC has 8-bit from the 70-s (IIRC the epoch of the design). So, it is always in 8-bit chunks.
