Scans the bits in v starting with bit 0, looking for the first set bit.
Scans the bits in v from the most significant bit to the least significant bit, looking for the first set bit.
Swaps bytes in a 4 byte uint end-to-end, i.e. byte 0 becomes byte 3, byte 1 becomes byte 2, byte 2 becomes byte 1, byte 3 becomes byte 0.
Tests the bit.
Tests and complements the bit.
Tests and resets (sets to 0) the bit.
Tests and sets the bit.
Reads I/O port at port_address.
Writes and returns value to I/O port at port_address.
These functions are built-in intrinsics to the compiler.
Intrinsic functions are functions built in to the compiler, usually to take advantage of specific CPU features that are inefficient to handle via external functions. The compiler's optimizer and code generator are fully integrated in with intrinsic functions, bringing to bear their full power on them. This can result in some surprising speedups.
Note that this module is only present in Tango because the module name is hardcoded into DMD, see http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=178 To correctly use this functionality in Tango, import tango.core.BitManip.
