.SH DESCRIPTION
These macros define and operate on five types of data structures:
singly-linked lists, singly-linked tail queues, lists, tail queues,
and circular queues.
All five structures support the following functionality:
.RS
.sp 1
Insertion of a new entry at the head of the list.
.br
Insertion of a new entry after any element in the list.
.br
O(1) removal of an entry from the head of the list.
.br
O(n) removal of any entry in the list.
.br
Forward traversal through the list.
.RE
.LP
Singly-linked lists are the simplest of the five data structures
and support only the above functionality.
Singly-linked lists are ideal for applications with large datasets
and few or no removals,
or for implementing a LIFO queue.
.LP
Singly-linked tail queues add the following functionality:
.RS
.sp 1
Entries can be added at the end of a list.
.sp 1
.RE
However:
.RS
All list insertions must specify the head of the list.
.br
Each head entry requires two pointers rather than one.
.br
Code size is about 15% greater and operations run about 20% slower
than singly-linked lists.
.RE
.LP
Singly-linked tailqs are ideal for applications with large datasets and
few or no removals,
or for implementing a FIFO queue.
.LP
All doubly linked types of data structures (lists, tail queues, and circle
queues) additionally allow:
.RS
.sp 1
Insertion of a new entry before any element in the list.
.br
O(1) removal of any entry in the list.
.RE
However:
.RS
Each elements requires two pointers rather than one.
.br
Code size and execution time of operations (except for removal) is about
twice that of the singly-linked data-structures.
.RE
.LP
Linked lists are the simplest of the doubly linked data structures and support
only the above functionality over singly-linked lists.
.LP
Tail queues add the following functionality:
.RS
.sp 1
Entries can be added at the end of a list.
.RE
However:
.RS
All list insertions and removals must specify the head of the list.
.br
Each head entry requires two pointers rather than one.
.br
Code size is about 15% greater and operations run about 20% slower
than singly-linked lists.
.RE
.LP
Circular queues add the following functionality:
.RS
.sp 1
Entries can be added at the end of a list.
.br
They may be traversed backwards, from tail to head.
.RE
However:
.RS
All list insertions and removals must specify the head of the list.
.br
Each head entry requires two pointers rather than one.
.br
The termination condition for traversal is more complex.
.br
Code size is about 40% greater and operations run about 45% slower
than lists.
.RE
.LP
In the macro definitions,
.I TYPE
is the name of a user defined structure,
that must contain a field of type
.BR SLIST_ENTRY ,
.BR STAILQ_ENTRY ,
.BR LIST_ENTRY ,
.BR TAILQ_ENTRY ,
or
.BR CIRCLEQ_ENTRY ,
named
.IR NAME
The argument
.I HEADNAME
is the name of a user defined structure that must be declared
using the macros
.BR SLIST_HEAD ,
.BR STAILQ_HEAD ,
.BR LIST_HEAD ,
.BR TAILQ_HEAD ,
or
.BR CIRCLEQ_HEAD .
See the examples below for further explanation of how these
macros are used.
.SH SINGLY-LINKED LISTS
A singly-linked list is headed by a structure defined by the
.BR SLIST_HEAD
macro.
This structure contains a single pointer to the first element
on the list.
The elements are singly linked for minimum space and pointer manipulation
overhead at the expense of O(n) removal for arbitrary elements.
New elements can be added to the list after an existing element or
at the head of the list.
An
.I SLIST_HEAD
structure is declared as follows:
.RS
.sp
SLIST_HEAD(HEADNAME, TYPE) head;
.sp
.RE
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:
.RS
.sp
struct HEADNAME *headp;
.sp
.RE
(The names
.IR head
and
.IR headp
are user selectable.)
.LP
The macro
.BR SLIST_ENTRY
declares a structure that connects the elements in
the list.
.LP
The macro
.BR SLIST_INIT
initializes the list referenced by
.IR head .
.LP
The macro
.BR SLIST_INSERT_HEAD
inserts the new element
.I elm
at the head of the list.
.LP
The macro
.BR SLIST_INSERT_AFTER
inserts the new element
.I elm
after the element
.IR listelm .
.LP
The macro
.BR SLIST_REMOVE_HEAD
removes the element
.I elm
from the head of the list.
For optimum efficiency,
elements being removed from the head of the list should explicitly use
this macro instead of the generic
.I SLIST_REMOVE
macro.
.LP
The macro
.BR SLIST_REMOVE
removes the element
.I elm
from the list.
.SH SINGLY-LINKED LIST EXAMPLE

.SH SINGLY-LINKED TAIL QUEUES
A singly-linked tail queue is headed by a structure defined by the
.BR STAILQ_HEAD
macro.
This structure contains a pair of pointers,
one to the first element in the tail queue and the other to
the last element in the tail queue.
The elements are singly linked for minimum space and pointer
manipulation overhead at the expense of O(n) removal for arbitrary
elements.
New elements can be added to the tail queue after an existing element,
at the head of the tail queue, or at the end of the tail queue.
A
.I STAILQ_HEAD
structure is declared as follows:
.RS
.sp
STAILQ_HEAD(HEADNAME, TYPE) head;
.sp
.RE
where
.BR HEADNAME
is the name of the structure to be defined, and
.BR TYPE
is the type of the elements to be linked into the tail queue.
A pointer to the head of the tail queue can later be declared as:
.RS
.sp
struct HEADNAME *headp;
.sp
.RE
(The names
.IR head
and
.IR headp
are user selectable.)
.LP
The macro
.BR STAILQ_ENTRY
declares a structure that connects the elements in
the tail queue.
.LP
The macro
.BR STAILQ_INIT
initializes the tail queue referenced by
.IR head .
.LP
The macro
.BR STAILQ_INSERT_HEAD
inserts the new element
.I elm
at the head of the tail queue.
.LP
The macro
.BR STAILQ_INSERT_TAIL
inserts the new element
.I elm
at the end of the tail queue.
.LP
The macro
.BR STAILQ_INSERT_AFTER
inserts the new element
.I elm
after the element
.IR listelm .
.LP
The macro
.BR STAILQ_REMOVE_HEAD
removes the element
.I elm
from the head of the tail queue.
For optimum efficiency,
elements being removed from the head of the tail queue should
use this macro explicitly rather than the generic
.I STAILQ_REMOVE
macro.
.LP
The macro
.BR STAILQ_REMOVE
removes the element
.I elm
from the tail queue.

.SH LISTS
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.
