[PATCH 2/5] rbtree: add rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() helper

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

 



Because deletion (of the entire tree) is a relatively common use of the
rbtree_postorder iteration, and because doing it safely means fiddling
with temporary storage, provide a helper to simplify postorder rbtree
iteration.
