[PATCH 3/4] rculist: add list_for_each_entry_from_rcu()

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

 



list_for_each_entry_from_rcu() is an RCU version of
list_for_each_entry_from().  It walks a linked list under rcu
protection, from a given start point.

It is similar to list_for_each_entry_continue_rcu() but starts *at*
the given position rather than *after* it.

Naturally, the start point must be known to be in the list.
