Red-Black tree structure in Kernel

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

 



Hi all,
 
I noticed in some of the kernel stuctures specially in hash tables when a collision happens they have both a red-black tree and a regular link list structure for storing the same object, that is they store the same object both in a red-black tree structure and in a regular linear link list. Could anyone explain why they want to maintain the same object in two separate lists?
 
Thanks
