NAME

ffs, ffsl, ffsll - find first bit set in a word  

SYNOPSIS

#include <strings.h>

int ffs(int i);

#include <string.h>

int ffsl(long int i);

int ffsll(long long int i);

Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

ffs():

Since glibc 2.12:

    _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 700
    || ! (_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L)
    || /* Glibc since 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
    || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
Before glibc 2.12:
none

ffsl(), ffsll():

Since glibc 2.27:

    _DEFAULT_SOURCE
Before glibc 2.27:

    _GNU_SOURCE
 

DESCRIPTION

The ffs() function returns the position of the first (least significant) bit set in the word i. The least significant bit is position 1 and the most significant position is, for example, 32 or 64. The functions ffsll() and ffsl() do the same but take arguments of possibly different size.  

RETURN VALUE

These functions return the position of the first bit set, or 0 if no bits are set in i.

CONFORMING TO

ffs(): POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, 4.3BSD.

The ffsl() and ffsll() functions are glibc extensions.

BSD systems have a prototype in <string.h>.
