Yes. As we see, it takes the same set of arguments and contains very similar block of inline assembler. It just uses the [btr](http://x86.renejeschke.de/html/file_module_x86_id_24.html) instruction instead of `bts`. As we can understand form the function's name, it clears a given bit by the given address. The `btr` instruction acts like `btr`. This instruction also selects a given bit which is specified in the first operand, stores its value in the `CF` flag register and clears this bit in the given bit array which is specified with second operand.

It is similar on `set_bit` function, but also has two differences. The first difference is `xor` operation instead of `or` and the second is `bts` instead of `bts`. It is similar on `set_bit` function, but also has two differences. The first difference is `xor` operation instead of `or` and the second is `btc` instead of `bts`.
For this moment we know the most important architecture-specific operations with bit arrays. Time to look at generic bitmap API. For this moment we know the most important architecture-specific operations with bit arrays. Time to look at generic bitmap API.
