πŸ’… list_private_for_each_entry_continue β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and it's literally about list_private_for_each_entry_continue, which ngl is a whole mouthful but it's iconic, trust. it's all about not starting your loop over like a lost cause β€” you keep going from where you already are. periodt. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

list_private_for_each_entry_continue β€” continue iteration over list of given type

like… you're already mid-walk through your list, and this just says "keep going, bestie, don't restart" 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

list_private_for_each_entry_continue (pos , head , member );

that's the whole thing. three little arguments, chef's kiss πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • pos β€” the type * to use as a loop cursor. this is your main character pointer, the one that moves through the list and holds your spot πŸ’«
  • head β€” the head for your list. the literal start-of-everything node, the group chat admin if you will πŸ‘‘
  • member β€” the name of the list_head within the struct. iykyk, it's the field inside your struct that does the actual linking 🌈

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

Continue to iterate over list of given type, continuing after the current position.

that's it, that's the vibe. you do NOT go back to the beginning, you do NOT collect two hundred dollars β€” you pick up right after wherever pos is sitting and keep scrolling. no cap, it's the "resume where you left off" of kernel list iteration πŸ“
