+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These macros define and operate on doubly linked circular queues.
+.P
+In the macro definitions,
+.I TYPE
+is the name of a user-defined structure,
+that must contain a field of type
+.IR CIRCLEQ_ENTRY ,
+named
+.IR NAME .
+The argument
+.I HEADNAME
+is the name of a user-defined structure
+that must be declared using the macro
+.BR CIRCLEQ_HEAD ().
+.SS Creation
+A circular queue is headed by a structure defined by the
+.BR CIRCLEQ_HEAD ()
+macro.
+This structure contains a pair of pointers,
+one to the first element in the queue
+and the other to the last element in the queue.
+The elements are doubly linked
+so that an arbitrary element can be removed without traversing the queue.
+New elements can be added to the queue
+after an existing element,
+before an existing element,
+at the head of the queue,
+or at the end of the queue.
+A
+.I CIRCLEQ_HEAD
+structure is declared as follows:
+.P
+.in +4
+.EX
+CIRCLEQ_HEAD(HEADNAME, TYPE) head;
+.EE
+.in
+.P
+where
+.I struct HEADNAME
+is the structure to be defined, and
+.I struct TYPE
+is the type of the elements to be linked into the queue.
+A pointer to the head of the queue can later be declared as:
+.P
+.in +4
+.EX
+struct HEADNAME *headp;
+.EE
+.in
+.P
+(The names
+.I head
+and
+.I headp
+are user selectable.)
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_ENTRY ()
+declares a structure that connects the elements in the queue.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_HEAD_INITIALIZER ()
+evaluates to an initializer for the queue
+.IR head .
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_INIT ()
+initializes the queue referenced by
+.IR head .
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_EMPTY ()
+evaluates to true if there are no items on the queue.
+.SS Insertion
+.BR CIRCLEQ_INSERT_HEAD ()
+inserts the new element
+.I elm
+at the head of the queue.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_INSERT_TAIL ()
+inserts the new element
+.I elm
+at the end of the queue.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_INSERT_BEFORE ()
+inserts the new element
+.I elm
+before the element
+.IR listelm .
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_INSERT_AFTER ()
+inserts the new element
+.I elm
+after the element
+.IR listelm .
+.SS Traversal
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FIRST ()
+returns the first item on the queue.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_LAST ()
+returns the last item on the queue.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_PREV ()
+returns the previous item on the queue, or
+.I &head
+if this item is the first one.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_NEXT ()
+returns the next item on the queue, or
+.I &head
+if this item is the last one.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_LOOP_PREV ()
+returns the previous item on the queue.
+If
+.I elm
+is the first element on the queue, the last element is returned.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_LOOP_NEXT ()
+returns the next item on the queue.
+If
+.I elm
+is the last element on the queue, the first element is returned.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FOREACH ()
+traverses the queue referenced by
+.I head
+in the forward direction, assigning each element in turn to
+.IR var .
+.I var
+is set to
+.I &head
+if the loop completes normally, or if there were no elements.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FOREACH_REVERSE ()
+traverses the queue referenced by
+.I head
+in the reverse direction,
+assigning each element in turn to
+.IR var .
+.SS Removal
+.BR CIRCLEQ_REMOVE ()
+removes the element
+.I elm
+from the queue.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.BR CIRCLEQ_EMPTY ()
+returns nonzero if the queue is empty,
+and zero if the queue contains at least one entry.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FIRST (),
+.BR CIRCLEQ_LAST (),
+.BR CIRCLEQ_LOOP_PREV (),
+and
+.BR CIRCLEQ_LOOP_NEXT ()
+return a pointer to the first, last, previous, or next
+.I TYPE
+structure, respectively.
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_PREV (),
+and
+.BR CIRCLEQ_NEXT ()
+are similar to their
+.BR CIRCLEQ_LOOP_* ()
+counterparts,
+except that if the argument is the first or last element, respectively,
+they return
+.IR &head .
+.P
+.BR CIRCLEQ_HEAD_INITIALIZER ()
+returns an initializer that can be assigned to the queue
+.IR head .
+.SH STANDARDS
+BSD.
+.SH BUGS
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FOREACH ()
+and
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FOREACH_REVERSE ()
+don't allow
+.I var
+to be removed or freed within the loop,
+as it would interfere with the traversal.
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FOREACH_SAFE ()
+and
+.BR CIRCLEQ_FOREACH_REVERSE_SAFE (),
+which are present on the BSDs but are not present in glibc,
+fix this limitation by allowing
+.I var
+to safely be removed from the list and freed from within the loop
+without interfering with the traversal.
