/*
 * These macros are for the bodies of functions that convert buffers of one
 * integer type to another using hardware.  They all start with `H5T_CONV_'
 * and end with two letters that represent the source and destination types,
 * respectively. The letters `s' and `S' refer to signed values while the
 * letters `u' and `U' refer to unsigned values. The letter which is
 * capitalized indicates that the corresponding type (source or destination)
 * is at least as large as the other type.  Certain conversions may
 * experience overflow conditions which arise when the source value has a
 * magnitude that cannot be represented by the destination type.
 *
 * Suffix	Description
 * ------	-----------
 * sS:		Signed integers to signed integers where the destination is
 *		at least as wide as the source.	 This case cannot generate
 *		overflows.
 *
 * sU:		Signed integers to unsigned integers where the destination is
 *		at least as wide as the source.	 This case experiences
 *		overflows when the source value is negative.
 *
 * uS:		Unsigned integers to signed integers where the destination is
 *		at least as wide as the source.	 This case can experience
 *		overflows when the source and destination are the same size.
 *
 * uU:		Unsigned integers to unsigned integers where the destination
 *		is at least as wide as the source.  Overflows are not
 *		possible in this case.
 *
 * Ss:		Signed integers to signed integers where the source is at
 *		least as large as the destination.  Overflows can occur when
 *		the destination is narrower than the source.
 *
 * Su:		Signed integers to unsigned integers where the source is at
 *		least as large as the destination.  Overflows occur when the
 *		source value is negative and can also occur if the
 *		destination is narrower than the source.
 *
 * Us:		Unsigned integers to signed integers where the source is at
 *		least as large as the destination.  Overflows can occur for
 *		all sizes.
 *
 * Uu:		Unsigned integers to unsigned integers where the source is at
 *		least as large as the destination. Overflows can occur if the
 *		destination is narrower than the source.
 *
 * su:		Conversion from signed integers to unsigned integers where
 *		the source and destination are the same size. Overflow occurs
 *		when the source value is negative.
 *
 * us:		Conversion from unsigned integers to signed integers where
 *		the source and destination are the same size.  Overflow
 *		occurs when the source magnitude is too large for the
 *		destination.
 *
 * The macros take a subset of these arguments in the order listed here:
 *
 * CDATA:	A pointer to the H5T_cdata_t structure that was passed to the
 *		conversion function.
 *
 * S_ID:	The hid_t value for the source data type.
 *
 * D_ID:	The hid_t value for the destination data type.
 *
 * BUF:		A pointer to the conversion buffer.
 *
 * NELMTS:	The number of values to be converted.
 *
 * ST:		The C name for source data type (e.g., int)
 *
 * DT:		The C name for the destination data type (e.g., signed char)
 *
 * D_MIN:	The minimum possible destination value.	 For unsigned
 *		destination types this should be zero.	For signed
 *		destination types it's a negative value with a magnitude that
 *		is usually one greater than D_MAX.  Source values which are
 *		smaller than D_MIN generate overflows.
 *
 * D_MAX:	The maximum possible destination value. Source values which
 *		are larger than D_MAX generate overflows.

 *		function.  The algorithm is basically:
 *
 * 		For each member of the struct
 *		  If sizeof detination type <= sizeof source type then
 *		    Convert member to destination type for all elements
 *		    Move memb to BKG buffer for all elements
 *		  Else
 *		    Move member as far left as possible for all elements
 *		  
 *		For each member of the struct (in reverse order)
 *		  If not destination type then
 *		    Convert member to destination type for all elements
 *		    Move member to correct position in BKG for all elements
 *
 *		Copy BKG to BUF for all elements

 * Return:	Non-negative on success/Negative on failure

 * Modifications:

 *              Added support for non-zero strides. If BUF_STRIDE is

 *
 * 		Robb Matzke, 1999-06-16
 *		If the source and destination data structs are the same size
 *		then we can convert on a field-by-field basis instead of an
 *		element by element basis. In other words, for all struct
 *		elements being converted by this function call, first convert
 *		all of the field1's, then all field2's, etc. This can
 *		drastically reduce the number of calls to H5T_convert() and
 *		thereby eliminate most of the conversion constant overhead.
 *              
 *              Robb Matzke, 2000-05-17

 * Function:	H5T_conv_f_f

 * Purpose:	Convert one floating point type to another.  This is a catch

 * Return:	Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
 *
 * Programmer:	Robb Matzke
 *		Tuesday, June 23, 1998
 *
 * Modifications:
 *		Robb Matzke, 7 Jul 1998
 *		Added overflow handling.
 *
 *		Robb Matzke, 1999-06-16
 *		Added support for non-zero strides. If BUF_STRIDE is non-zero

 *		BUF_STRIDE bytes each time; otherwise assume both source and
 *		destination values are packed.
