The value of \fIbit\fR specifies the number of the bit to be modified within target. Bits are numbered from zero to one less than the maximum number of bits in a \fBlong\fR. If the value of bit falls outside of this range, the result of the operation is undefined. .SH RETURN VALUES .sp .LP The \fBatomic_set_long_excl()\fR and \fBatomic_clear_long_excl()\fR functions return 0 if \fIbit\fR was successfully set or cleared. They return -1 if \fIbit\fR was already set or cleared. .SH ERRORS .sp .LP No errors are defined. .SH ATTRIBUTES .sp .LP See \fBattributes\fR(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: .sp .sp .TS tab() box; cw(2.75i) |cw(2.75i) lw(2.75i) |lw(2.75i) .
