None of + * them contains any extra space for implementations to use. Instead, each + * implementation is expected to declare its own data structure that contains + * an instance of the generic data structure plus additional + * implementation-specific members, called the "derived" state. The + * implementation can use casts or (preferably) the CONTAINER_OF macro to + * obtain access to derived state given only a pointer to the embedded generic + * data structure. + * + * + * Life Cycle + * ========== + * + * Four stylized functions accompany each of these data structures: + * + * "alloc" "construct" "destruct" "dealloc" + * ------------ ---------------- --------------- -------------- + * netdev ->alloc ->construct ->destruct ->dealloc + * netdev_rx ->rx_alloc ->rx_construct ->rx_destruct ->rx_dealloc + * + * Any instance of a given data structure goes through the following life + * cycle: + * + * 1. The client calls the "alloc" function to obtain raw memory. If "alloc" + * fails, skip all the other steps. + * + * 2. The client initializes all of the data structure's base state. If this + * fails, skip to step 7. + * + * 3. The client calls the "construct" function. The implementation + * initializes derived state. It may refer to the already-initialized + * base state. If "construct" fails, skip to step 6. + * + * 4. The data structure is now initialized and in use. + * + * 5. When the data structure is no longer needed, the client calls the + * "destruct" function. The implementation uninitializes derived state. + * The base state has not been uninitialized yet, so the implementation + * may still refer to it. + * + * 6. The client uninitializes all of the data structure's base state. + * + * 7. The client calls the "dealloc" to free the raw memory. The + * implementation must not refer to base or derived state in the data + * structure, because it has already been uninitialized. + * + * Each "alloc" function allocates and returns a new instance of the respective + * data structure. The "alloc" function is not given any information about the + * use of the new data structure, so it cannot perform much initialization. + * Its purpose is just to ensure that the new data structure has enough room + * for base and derived state. It may return a null pointer if memory is not + * available, in which case none of the other functions is called. + * + * Each "construct" function initializes derived state in its respective data + * structure. When "construct" is called, all of the base state has already + * been initialized, so the "construct" function may refer to it. The + * "construct" function is allowed to fail, in which case the client calls the + * "dealloc" function (but not the "destruct" function). + * + * Each "destruct" function uninitializes and frees derived state in its + * respective data structure. When "destruct" is called, the base state has + * not yet been uninitialized, so the "destruct" function may refer to it. The + * "destruct" function is not allowed to fail. + * + * Each "dealloc" function frees raw memory that was allocated by the the + * "alloc" function. The memory's base and derived members might not have ever + * been initialized (but if "construct" returned successfully, then it has been + * "destruct"ed already). The "dealloc" function is not allowed to fail. */ struct netdev_class { /* Type of netdevs in this class, e.g. "system", "tap", "gre", etc. * @@ -90,6 +158,10 @@ struct netdev_class { * the system. */ const char *type; +/* ## ------------------- ## */ +/* ## Top-Level Functions ## */ +/* ## ------------------- ## */ + /* Called when the netdev provider is registered, typically at program * startup.
