SYNOPSIS
#include
<sys/types.h>
#include <machine/bswap.h>
uint16_t
bswap16(uint16_t);
uint32_t
bswap32(uint32_t);
uint64_t
bswap64(uint64_t);
DESCRIPTION
Thebswap16(),
bswap32(),
and
bswap64()
functions return the value of their argument with the bytes inverted. They can
be used to convert 16, 32 or 64 bits integers from little to big endian, or
