💅 hlist_nulls...h_entry_from(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so like, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, specifically the page hlist_nulls...h_entry_from(9) — yes the title is a little chopped up, that's just how the manpage header do, we don't question it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_from — iterate over a hlist continuing from current point 🦋

like, you're not starting from the top of the list, you're picking up from where you already are. main character energy, no restart necessary 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_from (tpos , pos , member );

that's the whole vibe. three things go in, the loop happens, slay ✨

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• tpos — the type * to use as a loop cursor. it's the typed pointer that walks the list, your little tour guide 🫶
• pos — the struct hlist_node to use as a loop cursor. yep, a second cursor, this one's the raw node-flavoured one 👑
• member — the name of the hlist_node within the struct. like, literally the field name, so the macro knows where to look 🔍

ngl the two-cursors thing is a lot but that's macro life, we love her anyway 💖
