Dear Vadim Bendebury,
In message CANy1buJ0mhpDY948c+PM6u4EsWtoHw3+-u+m_FNiG3BztBinVA@mail.gmail.com you wrote:
because this chip is sensitive to the access cycle size (byte versus word).
When using macros one can rely on the passed in pointer type to decide which access to use (byte vs word). If using inline functions, there would be two separate functions required for read (byte and u32) and write (byte and u32).
This would then be an improvement in the code, as we then can see what the code is actually doing.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
