.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This constraint will set the number of most significant bits (msbits) if a sample format with the specified width has been select\&. If width is set to 0 the msbits will be set for any sample format with a width larger than the specified msbits\&.
.SH "RETURN"
.PP
Zero if successful, or a negative error code on failure\&.
