/** @file
    This header, <stdarg.h>, declares type va_list and defines macros: va_start, va_arg, va_end;
    for advancing through a list of arguments whose number and types are not known to the
    called function when it is translated.

    A function may be called with a variable number of arguments of varying types.
    The rightmost argument plays a special role in the access mechanism, and will
    be designated paramN in this and subsequent descriptions.

    The type va_list is a type suitable for holding information needed by the
    macros va_start, va_arg, and va_end.  If access to the varying arguments
    is desired, the called function shall declare an object (referred to as ap
    in these descriptions) having type va_list.  The object ap may be passed as
    an argument to another function; if the receiving function invokes the va_arg macro
    with parameter ap, the value of ap in the calling function becomes indeterminate
    and must be passed to the va_end macro prior to any further reference to ap.

    The va_start and va_arg macros must be implemented as macros, not as actual
    functions.  The va_start and va_end macros must be invoked in the
    function accepting a varying number of arguments, if access to the varying
    arguments is desired.

/** @{
    The va_arg macro expands to an expression that has the type and value of
    the next argument in the call.  The parameter ap shall be the same as the
    va_list ap initialized by va_start.  Each invocation of va_arg modifies ap
    so that the values of successive arguments are returned in turn.  The
    parameter type is a type name specified such that the type of a pointer to
    an object that has the specified type can be obtained simply by postfixing
    a * to type.  If there is no actual next argument, or if type is not
    compatible with the type of the actual next argument (as promoted
    according to the default argument promotions), the behavior is undefined.

    Synopsys: type va_arg(va_list ap, type);

    @param  ap    An object of type va_list that was initialized by a prior
                  invocation of va_start.

    @param  type  A type name specifying the type of the parameter to be retrieved.

    @return       The first invocation of the va_arg macro after that of the
                  va_start macro returns the value of the argument after that
                  specified by paramN.  Successive invocations return the values
                  of the remaining arguments in succession.
