Finally understand list_entry and list_for_each_entry
The list_for_each_entry macro in the linux kernel code I see the usage
of the linux list_for_each and list_for_each_entry function
container_of
list.h in user mode
Many linked list operations in the Linux kernel are traversed using list_for_each_entry, which is defined in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.32.9/include/linux/list.h path. The specific macro definition is as follows:
list_for_each_entry
/**
* 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_entry((head)->next, typeof(*pos), member); \
prefetch(pos->member.next), &pos->member != (head); \
pos = list_entry(pos->member.next, typeof(*pos), member))
The function of prefetch is to notify the CPU that the data is about to be used and needs to be loaded into the cache in advance to improve code efficiency
list_entry
/**
* 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)
container_of
/**
* container_of - cast a member of a structure out to the containing structure
* @ptr: the pointer to the member.
* @type: the type of the container struct this is embedded in.
* @member: the name of the member within the struct.
*
*/
#define container_of(ptr, type, member) ({ \
const typeof( ((type *)0)->member ) *__mptr = (ptr); \
(type *)( (char *)__mptr - offsetof(type,member) );})
The function of container_of : obtain the pointer to the data structure type through the known data structure member pointer ptr, data structure type, and member name of ptr in the data structure
Working principle : convert the 0 address to the data structure type type, use the temporary variable __mptr to point to the structure member pointer ptr
Use the ptr pointer to subtract the offset of the member in the structure, and the position pointed to by __mptr is the position of the data structure
Example:
struct person
{
char* name;
int age;
int height;
int weight;
...
};
person wang;
//目前可公开的情报：*ptr = &wang.age、type为person、member为age
//使用container_of即可获取到指向wang的指针
offsetof
#define offsetof(TYPE, MEMBER) ((size_t) &((TYPE *)0)->MEMBER)
The role of offsetof : Get the offset of a data member in the data structure
Working principle : The 0 address is forcibly converted to a Type* type pointer, so the position of each member of the data structure is the offset relative to the 0 address, and the address of the returned data structure member is the offset of the member
list_for_each_entry action
To sum up, we can understand the role of list_for_each_entry: all data structures containing list_head can use this method to traverse the linked list; the list_head structure does not contain the data part, use this function to traverse the linked list nodes, and then in the loop body, Read and write operations on the data part of the linked list, this is the commonality of list_for_each_entry
By traversing the list members in the linked list, you can locate the relevant nodes of the linked list, and then access the data part in the linked list nodes
Example of use
#include <stdio.h>
#include "list.h"
struct list_head {
struct list_head *next, *prev;
};
typedef struct usrList
{
int index;
int data;
struct list_head list;
}USR_LIST_TYPE;
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
USR_LIST_TYPE msg, *pmsg;
LIST_HEAD(msg_head);
int *ptr = &msg.data;
int i; /* insert the 10 msgs */
for(i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
pmsg = (USR_LIST_TYPE *)malloc(sizeof(USR_LIST_TYPE));
pmsg->index = i + 1;
pmsg->data = (i + 1)*10;
list_add_tail(&pmsg->list, &msg_head);
}
/* 根据list 遍历 整个链表，并打印信息 */
list_for_each_entry(pmsg, &msg_head, list)
{
printf("msg index:%d data:%d\n", pmsg->index, pmsg->data);
}
return 0;
}
The user mode cannot access the header file of #include <linux/list.h>, so copy the content of list.h to the custom file to use the relevant definition
