初识内核链表

前面我们说过如何用C实现通用类型的链表,比如void*的指针,零长数组等。可是小菜鸟毕竟赶不上大师,还是Linux内核巧妙啊,这里面的链表,才是链表中的“奇葩”。


源码的路径是include/linux/list.h

我们先找几个简单的读一读吧。

struct list_head {
struct list_head *next, *prev;
};
这个是在include/linux/types.h中定义的。虽然名字叫list_head,让人感觉是头节点,其实这就是通用的节点,和头一点关系都没有。你也许会奇怪,怎么没有数据域?是的,就是没有数据域。那数据怎么办?后面你就知道了,这个节点是内嵌在用户数据中的。

static inline void INIT_LIST_HEAD(struct list_head *list)
{
	list->next = list;
	list->prev = list;
}

节点的初始化函数,自己指向自己。


#define LIST_HEAD_INIT(name) { &(name), &(name) }

#define LIST_HEAD(name) 
	struct list_head name = LIST_HEAD_INIT(name)
定义头结点并且初始化。

static inline void __list_add(struct list_head *new,
			      struct list_head *prev,
			      struct list_head *next)
{
	next->prev = new;
	new->next = next;
	new->prev = prev;
	prev->next = new;
}
在两个节点中间插入一个新节点。


static inline void list_add(struct list_head *new, struct list_head *head)
{
	__list_add(new, head, head->next);
}
假如head是头结点的话,这个就是头插了。

static inline void list_add_tail(struct list_head *new, struct list_head *head)
{
	__list_add(new, head->prev, head);
}
head->prev就是最后一个节点了,这个节点的后面那个就是head,所以这个函数是尾插。


static inline void __list_del(struct list_head * prev, struct list_head * next)
{
	next->prev = prev;
	prev->next = next;
}
删除掉一个节点(必须知道这个节点的前驱和后继)


static inline void list_del(struct list_head *entry)
{
	__list_del(entry->prev, entry->next);
	
}
删除某个节点。


static inline int list_empty(struct list_head *head)
{
	return head->next == head;
}
判断链表是不是为空,这里的head是头结点。


/**
 * list_for_each	-	iterate over a list
 * @pos:	the &struct list_head to use as a loop cursor.
 * @head:	the head for your list.
 */
#define list_for_each(pos, head) 
	for (pos = (head)->next; pos != (head); pos = pos->next)
这是遍历。


/**
 * list_for_each_safe - iterate over a list safe against removal of list entry
 * @pos:	the &struct list_head to use as a loop cursor.
 * @n:		another &struct list_head to use as temporary storage
 * @head:	the head for your list.
 */
#define list_for_each_safe(pos, n, head) 
	for (pos = (head)->next, n = pos->next; pos != (head); 
		pos = n, n = pos->next)
安全遍历,看注释就明白,这个在遍历的过程中删除节点也是可以用的,因为当前节点的下一个已经保存了哦。

/**
 * list_entry - get the struct for this entry
 * @ptr:	the &struct list_head pointer.
 * @type:	the type of the struct this is embedded in.
 * @member:	the name of the list_struct within the struct.
 */
#define list_entry(ptr, type, member) 
	container_of(ptr, type, member)
关于container_of宏,我在另一篇博文中已经解释了,这里不再赘述。其实这个宏就是给container_of换了个马甲,叫

list_entry, ptr是指向list_head 的指针(简称小指针),type是结构体的类型,比如struct XXXX, member 是list_head 在结构体里的名字。最后就得到了指向struct XXXX的指针(简称大指针)。我们把这个宏叫做“小指针转大指针”。

/**
 * list_first_entry - get the first element from a list
 * @ptr:	the list head to take the element from.
 * @type:	the type of the struct this is embedded in.
 * @member:	the name of the list_struct within the struct.
 *
 * Note, that list is expected to be not empty.
 */
#define list_first_entry(ptr, type, member) 
	list_entry((ptr)->next, type, member)
ptr在这里表示头指针,这个宏得到了第一个结构体的地址(大指针)。


/**
 * list_next_entry - get the next element in list
 * @pos:	the type * to cursor
 * @member:	the name of the list_struct within the struct.
 */
#define list_next_entry(pos, member) 
	list_entry((pos)->member.next, typeof(*(pos)), member)
pos在这里是一个结构体的指针(大指针),这个宏得到了下一个结构体的地址。


/**
 * list_for_each_entry	-	iterate over list of given type
 * @pos:	the type * to use as a loop cursor.
 * @head:	the head for your list.
 * @member:	the name of the list_struct within the struct.
 */
#define list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)				
	for (pos = list_first_entry(head, typeof(*pos), member);	
	     &pos->member != (head);					
	     pos = list_next_entry(pos, member))
遍历链表中的每个大指针。

pos:大指针,head:头结点,member:list_head 在结构体中的名字


基本的就说到这里,下面我们写个例子。

#include <stdio.h>
#include "list.h"


struct person {
	char name[12];
	struct list_head list;
	char sex;
	unsigned char age;
};


int main()
{
	struct person persons[] = {
		{"Marry", NULL,NULL,'f',20},
		{"Mike",NULL,NULL,'m',23},
		{"Leslie",NULL,NULL,'m', 36},
		{"Ann",NULL,NULL,'f',27}
	};

	LIST_HEAD(head);//头结点

	int i;
	for (i = 0; i < sizeof(persons)/sizeof(persons[0]); ++i) {
		list_add(&persons[i].list, &head);
	}
	
	struct list_head *cur = NULL;
	struct person *pdata = NULL;

	list_for_each(cur, &head) {
		pdata = container_of(cur, struct person, list);
		printf("%s:%d
", pdata->name, pdata->age);
	}


	printf("list_for_each_entry
");	
	list_for_each_entry(pdata, &head, list) {
		printf("%s:%d
", pdata->name, pdata->age);
	}

	
	
	return 0;
}

运行结果:

Ann:27

Leslie:36

Mike:23

Marry:20

list_for_each_entry

Ann:27

Leslie:36

Mike:23

Marry:20
