内核链表示意图
关于内核链表与简单的双向连表,是否有过疑惑
内核链表定义:
struct list_head{
struct list_head *next,*prev;
};
struct doublelist{
datatype data;
struct list_head list;
}double_list;
简单的双向链表定义:
struct doublelist{
datatype data;
struct doublelist *next, *prior;
}double_list;
不同:
内核链表:大结构体内包含另一个包含两个指针变量的小结构体
双向链表:大结构体内包含两个个与自身类型相同的结构体指针
可见内核链表是将两个指针变量封装在一个小结构体内,那么问题来了。
问题1、
被封装的指针指向的地址是堆中对应的大结构体地址还是指向小结构体内的地址呢?这个问题想想就模糊了,来看看内核是怎么做的吧。
链表初始化时:
static inline void INIT_LIST_HEAD(struct list_head *list)
{
list->next = list;
list->prev = list;
}
是的,你看到的没错,它指向的只是小结构体的地址!
问题2、
那么当你新增节点的时候会不会实现将链表与下一个大结构体的起始位置相关联呢?
static inline void list_add(struct list_head *new, struct list_head *head)
{
__list_add(new, head, head->next);
}
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;
我嘞个呵呵,看到new的数据类型没,是不是对应的list_head类型?看到没有,内核他在搞什么鬼,指向小结构体地址那我的大结构体数据是怎么读取?使用指针,我还没那么神吧。关于怎么通过小结构体变量来读取到大结构体的地址我就不深入探讨了,这个内核有相应的处理。
只研究下我们该怎么使用内核链表这种机制实现自己的数据读取。
对比:
使用内核历遍链表代码:
double_plist p;
list_for_each_entry(p, &H->list,list){
}
使用简单双链表历遍链表:
double_plist p;
for(p=list->next; p!=list; p=p->next){
<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>......
}
list_for_each_entry定义
/**内核里的list_for_each_entry的定义
************历遍链表****************
*
* @pos: 临时的H类型的指针变量
* @head: 表头H内存放的list结构体地址
* @member H内的小结构体变量名,我的就是list
*
*/
#define list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) \
for (pos = list_entry((head)->next, typeof(*pos), member); \
&pos->member != (head); \
pos = list_entry(pos->member.next, typeof(*pos), member))
#define container_of(ptr, type, member) ({ \
const typeof( ((type *)0)->member ) *__mptr = (ptr); \
(type *)( (char *)__mptr - offsetof(type,member) );})
#define offsetof(TYPE, MEMBER) ((size_t) &((TYPE *)0)->MEMBER)
看懂了这个宏定义没?我是没看太懂,只是自己太概猜测的他应该要实现的功能:
pos是个临时大结构体的指针变量,head则是表头的list地址,而最后一个则是list变量,从list所指向的下一个小结构体地址开时历遍,终止条件是不等于表头list的地址每指向下一个节点的同时使用指针运算等我还不清楚的东西通过小结构体的地址和小结构体的空间大小与大结构体内的空间换算出大结构体的起始地址赋予临时的指针变量pos(p),这样就可以通过p实现简单的链表里的运算啦!
内核链表为什么要搞的这么复杂呢,我们是不是应该这样想想,对于一个系统,所面对的肯定不是小数据是吧,面对每个结构体都对应这这么庞大的数据,将指针变量封装也比较好实现不同的大结构体的数据处理,再说我猜测的一个想法,使用指针运算的时候是不是还会计算数据空间,使用小结构体这种封装机制是不是可以实现继续计算相对较小的空间大小从而实现指针运算?要是数据诺大,你说省出了多少时间?
对此,内核链表为何要加个小结构体变量的探讨先到此吧!
程序实现:
使用内核链表实现增删查改
1、主函数
main.c(有些文件我改名了,没改头文件的宏定义,那个没关系的)
#include "head.h"
//@使用系统的内核链表来完成数据的 增 删 查 改
//
int main(void)
{
int num, i;
double_plist list;
doublelist_init(&list); //初始化双向链表
printf("\n请输入链表长度:");
scanf("%d",&num);
//增
printf("---------------- ① ----------------\n");
printf("----------------增加----------------\n");
for(i=1;i<=num;i++){
printf(">>> 增加 %d\n", i);
doublelist_addnum(list,i); //加入数据到双向链表
}
//查
printf("---------------- ② ----------------\n");
printf("----------------显示----------------\n");
doublelist_show(list); //显示双向链表内数据
//删
printf("---------------- ③ ----------------\n");
printf("----------------删除----------------\n");
printf("请输入要删除的数据\n");
scanf("%d",&num);
doublelist_del(list,num);
//再查
printf("----------------显示----------------\n");
doublelist_show(list); //显示双向链表内数据
//修改
printf("\n---------------- ④ ----------------\n");
printf("----------------增加----------------\n");
printf(">>>: n m ,则将 n 修改为 m\n");
scanf("%d %d", &i, &num);
doublelist_revise(list, i, num); //显示双向链表内数据
//再再查
printf("----------------显示----------------\n");
doublelist_show(list); //显示双向链表内数据
return 0;
}
2、头文件
head.h
#ifndef __doubleLIST_H__
#define __doubleLIST_H__
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "kernellist.h"
typedef int datatype;
typedef struct doublelist{
datatype data;
struct list_head list;
#if 0
list成员是两个list_head类型的指针,在内核定义,
struct list_head{
list_headstruct list_head *next,*prev;
};
#endif
}double_list,*double_plist;
extern void doublelist_new(double_plist * );
extern void doublelist_init(double_plist * );//初始化表头
extern void doublelist_show(double_plist );//查
extern void doublelist_addnum(double_plist, int);//增
extern void doublelist_del(double_plist ,int);//删
extern void doublelist_revise(double_plist ,int , int );//改
#endif
3、调用内核链表函数,实现增删查改
kernellist.c
#include "head.h"
//开辟新的节点空间
void doublelist_new(double_plist *list){
*list=(double_plist)malloc(sizeof(double_list));
if(NULL == *list){
perror("malloc\n");
exit(-1);
}
}
//双向链表初始化
void doublelist_init(double_plist *H){
*H=(double_plist)malloc(sizeof(double_list));
if(NULL == *H){
perror("malloc\n");
exit(-1);
}
//(*list)->next=(*list)->prior=(*list);
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&(*H)->list);
#if 0
调用内核链表头文件函数,INIT_LIST_HEAD使得大结构体H的小结构体list的prev和next都指向小结构体本身的地址;
讲解:malloc申请一个大的结构体空间的时候,包含了小结构体list两个指针变量的空间,内核链表初始化时H保存
的任然是个表头,表头存放数据,list内的指针变量也和双向链表一样只指向大结构体内的小结构体list的地址空间
的起始地址。
static inline void INIT_LIST_HEAD(struct list_head *list)
{
list->next = list;
list->prev = list;
}
#endif
}
//------------------------------增-------------------------------------
//将新值放到链表表头之后
//比如 依次存放 1 2 3 4 5
//链表则为: 表头 5 4 3 2 1
void doublelist_addnum(double_plist H,int num)
{
double_plist new;
doublelist_new(&new); //开辟新的空间给new
new->data = num;
list_add(&new->list,&H->list);
#if 0
内核链表list_add函数是将新的节点内的list指针成员与之前H的list的
内的list指针成员相互指向,而并非是指向大结构体的起始地址。通过
以下的内核定义可以看出。
static inline void list_add(struct list_head *new, struct list_head *head)
{
__list_add(new, head, head->next);
}
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;
#endif
}
//将新值放到链表表尾之后
//比如 依次存放 1 2 3 4 5
//链表则为: 旧表尾 1 2 3 4 5
void doublelist_addnum_tail(double_plist H,int num)
{
double_plist new;
doublelist_new(&new); //开辟新的空间给new
new->data = num;
list_add_tail(&new->list,&H->list);
}
//------------------------------查-------------------------------------
//显示双向链表内数据
void doublelist_show(double_plist H)
{
int i=1;
double_plist p;
//for(p=list->next; p!=list; p=p->next){
list_for_each_entry(p, &H->list,list){
#if 0
/**内核里的list_for_each_entry的定义
************历遍链表****************
*

* @head: 表头H内存放的list结构体地址
* @member H内的小结构体变量名,我的就是list
*
*/
#define list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) \
for (pos = list_entry((head)->next, typeof(*pos), member); \
&pos->member != (head); \
pos = list_entry(pos->member.next, typeof(*pos), member))
#endif
while(i++%6==0){
printf("\n");
}
printf("%d\t",p->data);
}
printf("\n");
}
//------------------------------删-------------------------------------
#if 0
/**

* @entry: 参数是对应的结构体list变量的地址
*/
static inline void list_del(struct list_head *entry)
{
__list_del(entry->prev, entry->next);
entry->next = LIST_POISON1;
entry->prev = LIST_POISON2;
}
#endif
void doublelist_del(double_plist H,int num)
{
int flag=0; //flag 找到删除点的标志位
double_plist p;
//for(p=list->next; p!=list; p=p->next){
list_for_each_entry(p, &(H->list),list){
//如果找到了链表对应的值
if(num == p->data){

free(p);
flag=1; //标志位置1;
break;
}
}
//如果没找到链表对应的值
if(flag==0){
printf("***在链表中没有找到对应的值***\n");
}
}
//------------------------------改-------------------------------------
void doublelist_revise(double_plist H,int old_num, int new_num)
{
int flag=0; //flag 找到删除点的标志位
double_plist p;
list_for_each_entry(p, &H->list,list){
//for(p=list->next; p!=list; p=p->next){

flag=1; //标志位置1;
}
}
//如果没修改链表对应的值
if(flag==0){
printf("***在链表中没有找到对应的值***\n");
}
}
