Hmm, ROUND_UP() seems to be exactly what we need here. Though I think
compiler could be smart enough to give the same code with
QEMU_ALIGN_UP() as well. But we'd benefit from something like:
/* n-byte align pointer down */
#define QEMU_ALIGN_PTR_DOWN(p, n) \
((typeof(p))QEMU_ALIGN_DOWN((uintptr_t)(p), (n)))
/* n-byte align pointer up */
#define QEMU_ALIGN_PTR_UP(p, n) \
((typeof(p))QEMU_ALIGN_UP((uintptr_t)(p), (n)))
Kind regards,
Sergey
