Here is an example: say you have 5 constraints: qos1 with a value of 10 qos2 with 5 qos3 with 10 qos4 with 11 Now, you hash that list by the qos-values: 11 ---- 10 ----- 5 | | | qos4 qos3 qos2 | qos1 To compute the maximum you just walk the "----" list. To reduce qos4 from 11 to 5 you remove it from its "|" list and prepend it to the corresponding "|" list. (4 Pointer adjustments + searching the "-----" list for the right place to insert. result: 10 ---- 5 | | qos3 qos4 | | qos1 qos2 Cheers, Flo _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
