:) doesn't seem to go through the preprocessor / compiler (at least on
:) my system.

Preprocessing this code:

  #include <inttypes.h>
  #include <avr/io.h>

  #if _SFR_IO_REG_P(SPMCR)
  #warning "spmcr true"
  #else
  #warning "spmcr false"
  #endif

  #if _SFR_IO_REG_P(SREG)
  #warning "sreg true"
  #else
  #warning "sreg false"
  #endif

  int main(void)
  {
    if (_SFR_IO_REG_P(SPMCR))
        return 1;

    if (_SFR_IO_REG_P(SREG))
        return 1;

    return (0);
  }

With `avr-gcc -mmcu=atmega128 -E messy.c`

I get this:

messy.c:5:24: missing binary operator before token "int"
messy.c:8:2: warning: #warning "spmcr false"
messy.c:11:23: missing binary operator before token "int"
messy.c:14:2: warning: #warning "sreg false"
# 17 "messy.c"
int main(void)
{
        if ((((unsigned int) &((*(volatile unsigned char *)(0x68)))) < 0x60))
                return 1;

        if ((((unsigned int) &((*(volatile unsigned char *)((0x3F) + 0x20)))) < 
0x60))
                return 1;

        return (0);
}


What I suspect is happening is that the #if parts don't like the casts in
the macros. The casts are thrown in when compiling a C program
(!_SFR_ASM_COMPAT) and don't go through the preprocessor for asm
(_SFR_ASM_COMPAT).

Is there some compelling reason you need to use the preprocessor? Can you
just use "_SFR_ADDR(SPMCR)" instead and let the compiler figure what code
to generate?

>From sfr_defs.h:

"In C programs, all 3 combinations of _SFR_ASM_COMPAT and __SFR_OFFSET are
supported - the _SFR_ADDR(SPMCR) macro can be used to get the address of
the SPMCR register (0x57 or 0x68 depending on device)."
