This is probably portable. I could do it much simpler in
assembly but it wouldn't be portable.

Printing both unsigned long long and signed long long.




#include <stdio.h>

unsigned long long tester0 = 12345678901234567890ULL;
unsigned long long tester1 = 0xffffffffffffffff;


char *ulltoa(char *buf, unsigned long long val)
{
    char tmp[0x20];
    char *cp = tmp;
    char *rp = buf;
    do {
            *cp++ = (char) (val%10ULL) + '0';
            val /= 10ULL;
       } while (val);
    do {
           *buf++ = *(--cp);
       } while (cp != tmp);
    *buf = 0x00;
    return rp;
}

char *lltoa(char *buf, long long val)
{
   char *cp = buf;
   if(val < 0) {
        *cp++ = (char) '-';
        val = ~val + 1LL;
   }
   (void) ulltoa(cp, (unsigned long)val);
   return buf;
}

int main()
{
    char buf[0x100];

    printf("%llu\n", 0ULL);
    printf("%llu\n", tester0);
    printf("%llu\n", tester1);
    printf("%s\n", ulltoa(buf, 0ULL));
    printf("%s\n", ulltoa(buf, tester0));
    printf("%s\n", ulltoa(buf, tester1));
    printf("%s\n", lltoa(buf, tester1));

    return 0;
}
