These functions provide a generic doubly-linked list
implementation. To utilize it, simply embed a
list_node_t field in the structures that will
constitute the linked list elements and pass the
list_node_t field offset to
list_create
()
in the appropriate parameter (see below). A single
list_node_t field can only be used in a single list
simultaneously, so to add a structure to multiple lists, embed multiple
list_node_t fields in your user structure.
Please note that a list_node_t contains pointers back to its parent list_t so you cannot copy the list_t around once it has been initialized. In particular, this kind of construct will not work:
struct { list_t l; } a, b; list_create(&a.l, ...); b = a; <= This will break the list in `b', as the `l' element in `a' got copied to a different memory address.
To do this you must move the list items to the
new list using functions such as
list_move_tail
().
The
list_create
()
function initializes a new list. The driver supplies the storage for the
list handle, the size of an individual element, and the offset of a
list_node_t within the element to use for the links of
the list.
The
list_destroy
()
function destroys the list handle, including freeing any resources that may
have been internally allocated for the list. The list must be empty when
this function is called.
The
list_insert_after
()
and
list_insert_before
()
functions insert new_item into the linked list at a
location after or before the reference item, which must already be on the
list.
The
list_insert_head
()
and
list_insert_tail
()
functions insert the new_item on the list at either
the head or tail of the list. The head is the first item, the tail is the
last item.
The
list_remove
()
function removes the item from the list.
The
list_remove_head
()
and
list_remove_tail
()
functions remove the head (first) or tail (last) item from the list. The
item removed is returned to the caller. If the list is empty when these
functions are called, then no change is made and
NULL
is returned to the caller.
The
list_head
()
and
list_tail
()
functions simply return the head (first) or tail (last) item on the list.
NULL
is returned if the list is empty.
The
list_next
()
and
list_prev
()
functions return the next or previous item in the list, relative to the
named reference item which must be linked on the list. If the referenced
item is either the last entry in the list for
list_next
() or the first entry in the list for
list_prev
(), then the functions will return
NULL
. This is useful for iterating over a list with
the following pattern:
list_t list_t; ... for (foo_t *foo = list_head(&list_t); foo != NULL; foo = list_next(&list_t, foo)) { /* Process each entry of the list */ } for (foo_t *foo = list_tail(&list_t); foo != NULL; foo = list_prev(&list_t, foo)) { /* Same thing, but in reverse */ }
The
list_is_empty
()
function returns 0 if the list has items in it, or non-zero otherwise.
The
list_link_init
()
function initializes the list_node_t. It is
functionally equivalent to
bzero
(node,
sizeof (*node));;.
The
list_link_active
()
function returns non-zero if the node is on an active list.
The
list_move_tail
()
function is used to append the items on the src list
to the end of the dst list. It is mandatory that the
two lists were initialized using identical size and offset parameters. Upon
completion, the src list will be empty.
The
list_link_replace
()
function replaces lold node on an active list with the
lnew node. When the function is called the
lnew node must not be linked on any list. Upon
completion the lold node will be left unlinked from
any list.
