|
|
.Nm dehumanize_number ,
|
|
.Nm humanize_number
|
|
.Nd format a number into a human readable form and vice versa
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn dehumanize_number "const char *str" "int64_t *result"
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn humanize_number "char *buffer" "size_t len" "int64_t number" "const char *suffix" "int scale" "int flags"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn humanize_number
|
|
function formats the signed 64 bit quantity given in
|
|
.Fa number
|
|
into
|
|
.Fa buffer .
|
|
A space and then
|
|
.Fa suffix
|
|
is appended to the end.
|
|
.Fa buffer
|
|
must be at least
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes long.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the formatted number (including
|
|
.Fa suffix )
|
|
would be too long to fit into
|
|
.Fa buffer ,
|
|
then divide
|
|
.Fa number
|
|
by 1024 until it will.
|
|
In this case, prefix
|
|
.Fa suffix
|
|
with the appropriate SI designator.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The prefixes are:
|
|
.Bl -column "Prefix" "Description" "Multiplier" -offset indent
|
|
.It Sy "Prefix" Ta Sy "Description" Ta Sy "Multiplier"
|
|
.It k kilo 1024
|
|
.It M mega 1048576
|
|
.It G giga 1073741824
|
|
.It T tera 1099511627776
|
|
.It P peta 1125899906842624
|
|
.It E exa 1152921504606846976
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
must be at least 4 plus the length of
|
|
.Fa suffix ,
|
|
in order to ensure a useful result is generated into
|
|
.Fa buffer .
|
|
To use a specific prefix, specify this as
|
|
.Fa scale
|
|
(Multiplier = 1024 ^ scale).
|
|
This can not be combined with any of the
|
|
.Fa scale
|
|
flags below.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following flags may be passed in
|
|
.Pa scale :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Dv -offset indent
|
|
.It Dv HN_AUTOSCALE
|
|
Format the buffer using the lowest multiplier possible.
|
|
.It Dv HN_GETSCALE
|
|
Return the prefix index number (the number of times
|
|
.Fa number
|
|
must be divided to fit) instead of formatting it to the buffer.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following flags may be passed in
|
|
.Pa flags :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Dv -offset indent
|
|
.It Dv HN_DECIMAL
|
|
If the final result is less than 10, display it using one digit.
|
|
.It Dv HN_NOSPACE
|
|
Do not put a space between
|
|
.Fa number
|
|
and the prefix.
|
|
.It Dv HN_B
|
|
Use 'B' (bytes) as prefix if the original result does not have a prefix.
|
|
.It Dv HN_DIVISOR_1000
|
|
Divide
|
|
.Fa number
|
|
with 1000 instead of 1024.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn dehumanize_number
|
|
function parses the string representing an integral value given in
|
|
.Fa str
|
|
and stores the numerical value in the integer pointed to by
|
|
.Fa result .
|
|
The provided string may hold one of the suffixes, which will be interpreted
|
|
and used to scale up its accompanying numerical value.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Fn humanize_number
|
|
returns the number of characters stored in
|
|
.Fa buffer
|
|
(excluding the terminating NUL) upon success, or \-1 upon failure.
|
|
If
|
|
.Dv HN_GETSCALE
|
|
is specified, the prefix index number will be returned instead.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn dehumanize_number
|
|
returns 0 if the string was parsed correctly.
|
|
A \-1 is returned to indicate failure and an error code is stored in
|
|
.Va errno .
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn dehumanize_number
|
|
will fail and no number will be stored in
|
|
.Fa result
|
|
if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The string in
|
|
.Fa str
|
|
was empty or carried an unknown suffix.
|
|
.It Bq Er ERANGE
|
|
The string in
|
|
.Fa str
|
|
represented a number that does not fit in
|
|
.Fa result .
