100.Sh DESCRIPTION
101These routines convert 16, 32 and 64-bit quantities between different
102byte orderings.
103The
104.Dq swap
105functions reverse the byte ordering of
106the given quantity; the others convert either from/to the native
107byte order used by the host to/from either little- or big-endian (a.k.a
108network) order.
109.Pp
110Apart from the swap functions,
111the names containing
112.Dq be
113convert between host and big-endian (most significant byte first) order
114of the given quantity, while the names containing
115.Dq le
116convert between host and little-endian (least significant byte first) order
117of the given quantity.
118.Pp
119All these functions use the numbers
12016, 32, or 64 for specifying the bitwidth of the quantities they operate on.
121Currently all supported architectures are either big- or little-endian
122so either the
123.Dq be
124or
125.Dq le
126variants are implemented as null macros.

142and

144functions are expected to conform to a future version of
145.St -p1003.1 .
146The other functions are extensions that should not be used
147when portability is required.
148.Sh HISTORY
149The
150.Nm swap{size}
151and
152.Nm {src-order}to{dst-order}{size}
153functions appeared in
154.Bx 4.2 .
155The
156.Nm {src-order}{size}to{dst-order}
157functions appeared in
158.Ox 5.6 .
159A subset of them was submitted for standardization after
160.St -p1003.1-2008 .
161.Sh BUGS
162The perceived antagonism between
163.Sq host
164and
165.Sq network
166byte order does not allow PDP-11 users to sleep soundly at night.
