I think there is a solution to avoid multiple evaluations of parameters: // var is definitely an lvalue, so its address can definitely be taken #def= ine ASSIGN_UNLESS_EQUAL(var, val) do { \ =09typeof(var) *const var_ =3D &(var); \ =09typeof(val) const val_ =3D (val); \ =09if (*var_ !=3D val_) \ =09=09*var_ =3D val_; \ } while (0) The solution relies on the compiler optimizer.
