[PATCH 3/4] lib min_heap: Add brief introduction to Min Heap API

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A short description of the Min Heap API is added to the min_heap.h,
explaining its purpose for managing min-heaps and emphasizing the use
of macro wrappers instead of direct function calls. For more details,
users are directed to the documentation at
Documentation/core-api/min_heap.rst.

+ * The Min Heap API provides utilities for managing min-heaps, a binary tree
+ * structure where each node's value is less than or equal to its children's
+ * values, ensuring the smallest element is at the root.
+ *
+ * Users should avoid directly calling functions prefixed with __min_heap_*().
+ * Instead, use the provided macro wrappers.
+ *
+ * For further details and examples, refer to Documentation/core-api/min_heap.rst.
