+.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 tail queue. +A pointer to the head of the tail 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 STAILQ_ENTRY () +declares a structure that connects the elements in the tail queue. +.P +.BR STAILQ_HEAD_INITIALIZER () +evaluates to an initializer for the tail queue +.IR head . +.P +.BR STAILQ_INIT () +initializes the tail queue referenced by +.IR head . +.P +.BR STAILQ_EMPTY () +evaluates to true if there are no items on the tail queue. +.SS Insertion +.BR STAILQ_INSERT_HEAD () +inserts the new element +.I elm +at the head of the tail queue. +.P +.BR STAILQ_INSERT_TAIL () +inserts the new element +.I elm +at the end of the tail queue. +.P +.BR STAILQ_INSERT_AFTER () +inserts the new element +.I elm +after the element +.IR listelm . +.SS Traversal +.BR STAILQ_FIRST () +returns the first item on the tail queue or NULL if the tail queue is empty. +.\" .P +.\" .BR STAILQ_LAST () +.\" returns the last item on the tail queue. +.\" If the tail queue is empty the return value is NULL . +.P +.BR STAILQ_NEXT () +returns the next item on the tail queue, or NULL this item is the last. +.P +.BR STAILQ_FOREACH () +traverses the tail queue referenced by +.I head +in the forward direction, +assigning each element in turn to +.IR var . +.\" .P +.\" .BR STAILQ_FOREACH_FROM () +.\" behaves identically to +.\" .BR STAILQ_FOREACH () +.\" when +.\" .I var +.\" is NULL, else it treats +.\" .I var +.\" as a previously found STAILQ element and begins the loop at +.\" .I var +.\" instead of the first element in the STAILQ referenced by +.\" .IR head . +.\" .P +.\" .BR STAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE () +.\" traverses the tail queue referenced by +.\" .I head +.\" in the forward direction, assigning each element +.\" in turn to +.\" .IR var . +.\" However, unlike +.\" .BR STAILQ_FOREACH () +.\" here it is permitted to both remove +.\" .I var +.\" as well as free it from within the loop safely without interfering with the +.\" traversal. +.\" .P +.\" .BR STAILQ_FOREACH_FROM_SAFE () +.\" behaves identically to +.\" .BR STAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE () +.\" when +.\" .I var +.\" is NULL, else it treats +.\" .I var +.\" as a previously found STAILQ element and begins the loop at +.\" .I var +.\" instead of the first element in the STAILQ referenced by +.\" .IR head . +.SS Removal +.BR STAILQ_REMOVE () +removes the element +.I elm +from the tail queue. +.P +.BR STAILQ_REMOVE_HEAD () +removes the element at the head of the tail queue. +For optimum efficiency, +elements being removed from the head of the tail queue should +use this macro explicitly rather than the generic +.BR STAILQ_REMOVE () +macro. +.\" .P +.\" .BR STAILQ_REMOVE_AFTER () +.\" removes the element after +.\" .I elm +.\" from the tail queue. +.\" Unlike +.\" .BR STAILQ_REMOVE (), +.\" this macro does not traverse the entire tail queue. +.SS Other features +.BR STAILQ_CONCAT () +concatenates the tail queue headed by +.I head2 +onto the end of the one headed by +.I head1 +removing all entries from the former. +.\" .P +.\" .BR STAILQ_SWAP () +.\" swaps the contents of +.\" .I head1 +.\" and +.\" .IR head2 . +.SH RETURN VALUE +.BR STAILQ_EMPTY () +returns nonzero if the queue is empty, +and zero if the queue contains at least one entry. +.P +.BR STAILQ_FIRST (), +and +.BR STAILQ_NEXT () +return a pointer to the first or next +.I TYPE +structure, respectively. +.P +.BR STAILQ_HEAD_INITIALIZER () +returns an initializer that can be assigned to the queue +.IR head . +.SH VERSIONS +Some BSDs provide SIMPLEQ instead of STAILQ. +They are identical, but for historical reasons +they were named differently on different BSDs. +STAILQ originated on FreeBSD, and SIMPLEQ originated on NetBSD. +For compatibility reasons, some systems provide both sets of macros. +glibc provides both STAILQ and SIMPLEQ, +which are identical except for a missing SIMPLEQ equivalent to +.BR STAILQ_CONCAT (). +.SH BUGS +.BR STAILQ_FOREACH () +doesn't allow +.I var +to be removed or freed within the loop, +as it would interfere with the traversal. +.BR STAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE (), +which is present on the BSDs but is not present in glibc, +fixes this limitation by allowing +.I var +to safely be removed from the list and freed from within the loop +without interfering with the traversal. +.SH STANDARDS +BSD. +.SH HISTORY +4.4BSD. +.SH EXAMPLES +.\" SRC BEGIN (stailq.c) +.EX +#include <stddef.h> +#include <stdio.h> +#include <stdlib.h> +#include <sys/queue.h> +\& +struct entry { + int data;
