From f4b477c47332367d35686bd2b808c2156b96d7c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Artem Bityutskiy Date: Sat, 10 Jan 2009 11:12:09 +0000 Subject: rbtree: add const qualifier to some functions MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The 'rb_first()', 'rb_last()', 'rb_next()' and 'rb_prev()' calls take a pointer to an RB node or RB root. They do not change the pointed objects, so add a 'const' qualifier in order to make life of the users of these functions easier. Indeed, if I have my own constant pointer &const struct my_type *p, and I call 'rb_next(&p->rb)', I get a GCC warning: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘rb_next’ discards qualifiers from pointer target type Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- lib/rbtree.c | 12 ++++++------ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'lib') diff --git a/lib/rbtree.c b/lib/rbtree.c index 48499c2d88cc..9956b99649f0 100644 --- a/lib/rbtree.c +++ b/lib/rbtree.c @@ -292,7 +292,7 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(rb_erase); /* * This function returns the first node (in sort order) of the tree. */ -struct rb_node *rb_first(struct rb_root *root) +struct rb_node *rb_first(const struct rb_root *root) { struct rb_node *n; @@ -305,7 +305,7 @@ struct rb_node *rb_first(struct rb_root *root) } EXPORT_SYMBOL(rb_first); -struct rb_node *rb_last(struct rb_root *root) +struct rb_node *rb_last(const struct rb_root *root) { struct rb_node *n; @@ -318,7 +318,7 @@ struct rb_node *rb_last(struct rb_root *root) } EXPORT_SYMBOL(rb_last); -struct rb_node *rb_next(struct rb_node *node) +struct rb_node *rb_next(const struct rb_node *node) { struct rb_node *parent; @@ -331,7 +331,7 @@ struct rb_node *rb_next(struct rb_node *node) node = node->rb_right; while (node->rb_left) node=node->rb_left; - return node; + return (struct rb_node *)node; } /* No right-hand children.
