								<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								These macros as used for reading and writing raw data in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								sections; each access (except for bytes) is vectored through
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the target format of the BFD and mangled accordingly. The
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								mangling performs any necessary endian translations and
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								removes alignment restrictions.  Note that types accepted and
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								returned by these macros are identical so they can be swapped
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								around in macros—for example, <span class="file">libaout.h</span> defines <code>GET_WORD</code>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to either <code>bfd_get_32</code> or <code>bfd_get_64</code>.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>In the put routines, <var>val</var> must be a <code>bfd_vma</code>.  If we are on a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								system without prototypes, the caller is responsible for making
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								sure that is true, with a cast if necessary.  We don't cast
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								them in the macro definitions because that would prevent <code>lint</code>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								or <code>gcc -Wall</code> from detecting sins such as passing a pointer. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								To detect calling these with less than a <code>bfd_vma</code>, use
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>gcc -Wconversion</code> on a host with 64 bit <code>bfd_vma</code>'s.
