DESCRIPTION

29       The  function  ddi_ffs() takes its argument and returns the shift count
30       that the first (least significant) bit set in the argument  corresponds
31       to.  The  function  ddi_fls()  does the same, only it returns the shift
32       count for the last (most significant) bit set in the argument.
33

RETURN VALUES

35       0    No bits are set in mask.
36
37
38       N    Bit  N is the least  significant  (ddi_ffs)  or  most  significant
39            (ddi_fls)  bit set in mask. Bits are numbered from  1 to  32, with
40            bit 1 being the least significant bit position and bit 32 the most
41            significant position.
