Detailed Description

The linked list library provides a set of functions for manipulating linked lists.

A linked list is made up of elements where the first element must be a pointer. This pointer is used by the linked list library to form lists of the elements.

Lists are declared with the LIST() macro. The declaration specifies the name of the list that later is used with all list functions.

Lists can be manipulated by inserting or removing elements from either sides of the list (list_push(), list_add(), list_pop(), list_chop()). A specified element can also be removed from inside a list with list_remove(). The head and tail of a list can be extracted using list_head() and list_tail(), respectively.

This library is not safe to be used within an interrupt context.

Macro Definition Documentation

◆ LIST

#define LIST ( name)
Value:
static void *LIST_CONCAT(name,_list) = NULL; \
static list_t name = (list_t)&LIST_CONCAT(name,_list)
void ** list_t
The linked list type.
Definition list.h:136

Declare a linked list.

This macro declares a linked list with the specified type. The type must be a structure (struct) with its first element being a pointer. This pointer is used by the linked list library to form the linked lists.

The list variable is declared as static to make it easy to use in a single C module without unnecessarily exporting the name to other modules.

Parameters
nameThe name of the list.

Definition at line 90 of file list.h.

◆ LIST_STRUCT

#define LIST_STRUCT ( name)
Value:
void *LIST_CONCAT(name,_list); \
list_t name

Declare a linked list inside a structure declaraction.

This macro declares a linked list with the specified type. The type must be a structure (struct) with its first element being a pointer. This pointer is used by the linked list library to form the linked lists.

Internally, the list is defined as two items: the list itself and a pointer to the list. The pointer has the name of the parameter to the macro and the name of the list is a concatenation of the name and the suffix "_list". The pointer must point to the list for the list to work. Thus the list must be initialized before using.

The list is initialized with the LIST_STRUCT_INIT() macro.

Parameters
nameThe name of the list.

Definition at line 112 of file list.h.

◆ LIST_STRUCT_INIT

#define LIST_STRUCT_INIT ( struct_ptr,
name )
Value:
do { \
(struct_ptr)->name = &((struct_ptr)->LIST_CONCAT(name,_list)); \
(struct_ptr)->LIST_CONCAT(name,_list) = NULL; \
list_init((struct_ptr)->name); \
} while(0)

Initialize a linked list that is part of a structure.

This macro sets up the internal pointers in a list that has been defined as part of a struct. This macro must be called before using the list.

Parameters
struct_ptrA pointer to the struct
nameThe name of the list.

Function Documentation

◆ list_add()

◆ list_chop()

void * list_chop ( list_t list)

Remove the last object on the list.

This function removes the last object on the list and returns it.

Parameters
listThe list
Returns
The removed object

Definition at line 100 of file list.c.

◆ list_contains()

bool list_contains ( const_list_t list,
const void * item )

Check if the list contains an item.

Parameters
listThe list that is checked
itemAn item to look for in the list
Returns
0 if the list does not contains the item, and 1 otherwise
        This function searches for an item in the list and returns
    0 if the list does not contain the item, and 1 if the item
    is present in the list.

Definition at line 185 of file list.c.

◆ list_copy()

static void list_copy ( list_t dest,
const_list_t src )
inlinestatic

Duplicate a list.

This function duplicates a list by copying the list reference, but not the elements.

Note
This function does not copy the elements of the list, but merely duplicates the pointer to the first element of the list.
Parameters
destThe destination list.
srcThe source list.

Definition at line 261 of file list.h.

◆ list_head()

◆ list_init()

static void list_init ( list_t list)
inlinestatic

Initialize a list.

This function initalizes a list. The list will be empty after this function has been called.

Parameters
listThe list to be initialized.

Definition at line 152 of file list.h.

◆ list_insert()

void list_insert ( list_t list,
void * previtem,
void * newitem )

Insert an item after a specified item on the list.

Parameters
listThe list
previtemThe item after which the new item should be inserted
newitemThe new item that is to be inserted
Author
Adam Dunkels
        This function inserts an item right after a specified
        item on the list. This function is useful when using
        the list module to ordered lists.

        If previtem is NULL, the new item is placed at the
        start of the list.

Definition at line 173 of file list.c.

◆ list_length()

int list_length ( const_list_t list)

Get the length of a list.

This function counts the number of elements on a specified list.

◆ list_pop()

void * list_pop ( list_t list)

Remove the first object on a list.

This function removes the first object on the list and returns a pointer to it.

◆ list_tail()

void * list_tail ( const_list_t list)
