.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
These macros define and operate on doubly-linked lists.
|
|
.PP
|
|
In the macro definitions,
|
|
.I TYPE
|
|
is the name of a user defined structure,
|
|
that must contain a field of type
|
|
.IR LIST_ENTRY ,
|
|
named
|
|
.IR NAME .
|
|
The argument
|
|
.IR HEADNAME
|
|
is the name of a user defined structure that must be declared
|
|
using the macro
|
|
.BR LIST_HEAD ().
|
|
.PP
|
|
A list is headed by a structure defined by the
|
|
.BR LIST_HEAD ()
|
|
macro.
|
|
This structure contains a single pointer to the first element
|
|
on the list.
|
|
The elements are doubly linked so that an arbitrary element can be
|
|
removed without traversing the list.
|
|
New elements can be added to the list after an existing element,
|
|
before an existing element, or at the head of the list.
|
|
A
|
|
.I LIST_HEAD
|
|
structure is declared as follows:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.in +4
|
|
.EX
|
|
LIST_HEAD(HEADNAME, TYPE) head;
|
|
.EE
|
|
.in
|
|
.PP
|
|
where
|
|
.I HEADNAME
|
|
is the name of the structure to be defined, and
|
|
.I TYPE
|
|
is the type of the elements to be linked into the list.
|
|
A pointer to the head of the list can later be declared as:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.in +4
|
|
.EX
|
|
struct HEADNAME *headp;
|
|
.EE
|
|
.in
|
|
.PP
|
|
(The names
|
|
.I head
|
|
and
|
|
.I headp
|
|
are user selectable.)
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_HEAD_INITIALIZER ()
|
|
evaluates to an initializer for the list
|
|
.IR head .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_EMPTY ()
|
|
evaluates to true if there are no elements in the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_ENTRY ()
|
|
declares a structure that connects the elements in
|
|
the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_FIRST ()
|
|
returns the first element in the list or NULL if the list
|
|
is empty.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_FOREACH ()
|
|
traverses the list referenced by
|
|
.I head
|
|
in the forward direction, assigning each element in turn to
|
|
.IR var .
|
|
.\" .PP
|
|
.\" The macro

|

The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_INIT ()
|
|
initializes the list referenced by
|
|
.IR head .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_INSERT_HEAD ()
|
|
inserts the new element
|
|
.I elm
|
|
at the head of the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_INSERT_AFTER ()
|
|
inserts the new element
|
|
.I elm
|
|
after the element
|
|
.IR listelm .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_INSERT_BEFORE ()
|
|
inserts the new element
|
|
.I elm
|
|
before the element
|
|
.IR listelm .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_NEXT ()
|
|
returns the next element in the list, or NULL if this is the last.
|
|
.\" .PP
|
|
.\" The macro
|
|
.\" .BR LIST_PREV ()
|

.\" returns the previous element in the list, or NULL if this is the first.

|
.\" must contain element
|
|
.\" .IR elm .
|
|
.PP
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_REMOVE ()
|
|
removes the element
|
|
.I elm
|
|
from the list.
|
|
.\" .PP
|
|
.\" The macro
|
|
.\" .BR LIST_SWAP ()
|
|
.\" swaps the contents of
|
|
.\" .I head1
|
|
.\" and

.\" .IR head2 .
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
.BR LIST_EMPTY ()
|
|
returns non-zero if the list is empty,
|
|
and zero if the list contains at least one entry.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.BR LIST_FIRST (),
|
|
and
|
|
.BR LIST_NEXT ()
|
|
return a pointer to the first or next
|
|
.I LIST_ENTRY
|
|
structre, respectively.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.BR LIST_HEAD_INITIALIZER ()
|
|
returns an initializer that can be assigned to the list
|

.IR head .
|
|
.SH CONFORMING TO
|
|
Not in POSIX.1, POSIX.1-2001 or POSIX.1-2008.
|
|
Present on the BSDs
|
|
(LIST macros first appeared in 4.4BSD).
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_FOREACH ()
|
|
doesn't allow
|
|
.I var
|
|
to be removed or freed within the loop,
|
|
as it would interfere with the traversal.
|
|
The macro
|
|
.BR LIST_FOREACH_SAFE (),
|
|
which is not present in glibc,
|
|
solves this bug by
|
|
allowing to both remove
|
|
.I var
|
|
as well as free it from within the loop safely
|
|
without interfering with the traversal.
