2 * klist.c - Routines for manipulating klists.
5 * This klist interface provides a couple of structures that wrap around
6 * struct list_head to provide explicit list "head" (struct klist) and
7 * list "node" (struct klist_node) objects. For struct klist, a spinlock
8 * is included that protects access to the actual list itself. struct
9 * klist_node provides a pointer to the klist that owns it and a kref
10 * reference count that indicates the number of current users of that node
11 * in the list.
13 * The entire point is to provide an interface for iterating over a list
14 * that is safe and allows for modification of the list during the
15 * iteration (e.g. insertion and removal), including modification of the
16 * current node on the list.
18 * It works using a 3rd object type - struct klist_iter - that is declared
19 * and initialized before an iteration. klist_next() is used to acquire the
20 * next element in the list. It returns NULL if there are no more items.
21 * Internally, that routine takes the klist's lock, decrements the reference
22 * count of the previous klist_node and increments the count of the next
23 * klist_node. It then drops the lock and returns.
25 * There are primitives for adding and removing nodes to/from a klist.
26 * When deleting, klist_del() will simply decrement the reference count.
27 * Only when the count goes to 0 is the node removed from the list.
28 * klist_remove() will try to delete the node from the list and block
29 * until it is actually removed. This is useful for objects (like devices)
30 * that have been removed from the system and must be freed (but must wait
31 * until all accessors have finished).
