.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn printf ,
.Fn snprintf ,
.Fn vprintf ,
.Fn vsnprintf ,
.Fn uprintf ,
.Fn ttyprintf ,
and
.Fn db_printf
functions allow the kernel to send formatted messages to various output
devices.
The functions
.Fn printf
and
.Fn vprintf
send formatted strings to the system console and to the system log.
The functions
.Fn uprintf
and
.Fn ttyprintf
send formatted strings to the current process's controlling tty and a specific
tty,
respectively.
The function
.Fn db_printf
sends formatted strings to the ddb console, and is only used to implement
.Xr ddb 4 .
.Pp
Since each of these kernel functions is a variant of its user space
counterpart, this page describes only the differences between the user
space and kernel versions.
Refer to
.Xr printf 3
for functional details.
.Ss FORMAT OPTIONS
The kernel functions don't support any floating point formatting
specifiers.
In addition to other formatting specifiers common with the user
space functions, the kernel functions accept the following format specifiers
in the format string
.Fa format :
.Bl -tag -width "\e177"
.It Li %b
Bit field expansion.
This format specifier is useful for decoding bit fields in device registers.
It displays an integer using a specified radix
.Pq base
and an interpretation of
the bits within that integer as though they were flags.
It requires two arguments from the argument vector, the first argument being
the bit field to be decoded
.Pq "as an integer"
and the second being a decoding directive string.
.Pp
The decoding directive string describes how the bitfield is to be interpreted
and displayed.
The first character of the string is a binary character representation of the
output numeral base in which the bitfield will be printed before it is decoded.
Recognized radix values
.Pq "in C escape-character format"
are
.Li \e10
.Pq octal ,
.Li \e12
.Pq decimal ,
and
.Li \e20
.Pq hexadecimal .
.Pp
The remaining characters in the decoding directive string are interpreted as a
list of bit-position\(endescription pairs.
A bit-position\(endescription pair begins with a binary character value
that represents the position of the bit being described.
A bit position value of one describes the least significant bit.
Whereas a position value of 32
.Pq "octal 40, hexadecimal 20, the ASCII space character"
describes the most significant bit.
.Pp
To deal with more than 32 bits, the characters 128
.Pq "octal 200, hexadecimal 80"
through 255
.Pq "octal 377, hexadecimal FF"
are used.
The value 127 is subtracted from the character to determine the
bit position (1 is least significant, and 128 is most significant).
.Pp
The remaining characters in a bit-position\(endescription pair are the
characters to print should the bit being described be set.
Description strings are delimited by the next bit position value character
encountered
.Po
distinguishable by its value being \*(Le 32 or \*(Ge 128
.Pc ,
or the end of the decoding directive string itself.
.It Li %r
Displays an integer using the current
.Tn DDB
radix.
This non-standard interpretation of
.Li %r
is only available to
.Fn db_printf .
.It Li %z
Displays a signed integer using the C-style hexadecimal constant format.
This format specifier is only available to
.Fn db_printf .
.El
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn printf ,
.Fn snprintf ,
.Fn vprintf ,
and
.Fn vsnprintf
functions return the number of characters they placed in the buffer
.Fa buf .
.Sh EXAMPLES
Use of the
.Li %b
format specifier for decoding device registers.
.Bd -literal -offset indent
printf("reg=%b\en", 3, "\e10\e2BITTWO\e1BITONE")
\(rA "reg=3<BITTWO,BITONE>"
printf("enablereg=%b\en", 0xe860,
