Something like: static inline u32 host1x_sync_cfpeek_ctrl_r(void) { return 0x74c; } #define HOST1X_SYNC_CFPEEK_CTRL \ host1x_sync_cfpeek_ctrl_r() static inline u32 host1x_sync_cfpeek_ctrl_cfpeek_ena_f(u32 v) { return (v & 0x1) << 31; } #define HOST1X_SYNC_CFPEEK_CTRL_CFPEEK_ENA_F(v) \ host1x_sync_cfpeek_ctrl_cfpeek_ena_f(v) I'd use the macros in .c files. That way the references will look familiar to reader of .c files, but we can still get the benefits of compiler processing (type checking, better error codes etc) and gcov coverage tracking.
