package System.Bitfield_Utils is

   --  This package provides a procedure for copying arbitrarily large and
   --  arbitrarily bit-aligned bit fields.

   --  Type Val is used to represent small bit fields. Val_2 represents a
   --  contiguous pair of Vals. Val_2'Alignment is half of its size in bytes,
   --  which is likely not the natural alignment. This is done to ensure that
   --  any bit field that fits in a Val can fit in an aligned Val_2, starting
   --  somewhere in the first half, and possibly crossing over into the second
   --  half. This allows us to isolate a Val value by shifting and masking the
   --  Val_2.
   --
   --  Val can be 8, 16, or 32 bits; larger values are more efficient. It can't
   --  be 64 bits, because we need Val_2 to be a double-wide shiftable type,
   --  and 128 bits is not supported. Instantiating with an 8-bit Val is useful
   --  for testing and debugging; 32 bits should be used for production.
   --
   --  We use modular types here, not because we want modular arithmetic, but
   --  so we can do shifting and masking. The actual for Val_2 should have
   --  pragma Provide_Shift_Operators, so that the Shift_Left and Shift_Right
   --  intrinsics can be passed in. It is impossible to put that pragma on a
   --  generic formal, or on a type derived from a generic formal, so they have
   --  to be passed in.
   --
   --  Endian indicates whether we're on little-endian or big-endian machine.

      --  An Address and a Bit_Offset together form a "bit address". This
      --  copies the source bit field to the destination. Size is the size in
      --  bits of the bit field. The bit fields can be arbitrarily large, but
      --  the starting offsets must be within the first byte that the Addresses
      --  point to. The Address values need not be aligned.
      --
      --  For example, a slice assignment of a packed bit field:
      --
      --     D (D_First .. D_Last) := S (S_First .. S_Last);
      --
      --  can be implemented using:
      --
      --     Copy_Bitfield
      --       (S (S_First)'Address, S (S_First)'Bit,
      --        D (D_First)'Address, D (D_First)'Bit,
      --        Size);
