NAME

       skb_queue_tail - queue a buffer at the list tail

SYNOPSIS

       void skb_queue_tail(struct sk_buff_head * list, struct sk_buff * newsk);

ARGUMENTS

       list
	   list to use

       newsk
	   buffer to queue

DESCRIPTION

       Queue a buffer at the tail of the list. This function takes the list lock and can be used safely with other locking sk_buff functions
       safely.

       A buffer cannot be placed on two lists at the same time.

NAME

       disksort - single direction elevator seek sort for buffers

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/conf.h>
       #include <sys/ddi.h>
       #include <sys/sunddi.h>
       void

       disksort(struct diskhd *dp, struct buf *bp);

INTERFACE LEVEL

       Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

PARAMETERS

       dp	A  pointer  to	a  diskhd structure. A diskhd structure is essentially identical to head of a buffer structure (see buf(9S)).  The
		only defined items of interest for this structure are the av_forw and av_back structure elements which are used  to  maintain  the
		front and tail pointers of the forward linked I/O request queue.

       bp	A  pointer  to	a buffer structure. Typically this is the I/O request that the driver receives in its strategy routine (see strat-
		egy(9E)). The driver is responsible for initializing the b_resid structure element to a meaningful sort key value prior to calling
		disksort().

DESCRIPTION

       The function disksort() sorts a pointer to a buffer into a single forward linked list headed by the av_forw element of the argument *dp.

       It  uses a one-way elevator algorithm that sorts buffers into the queue in ascending order based upon a key value held in the argument buf-
       fer structure element b_resid.

       This value can either be the driver calculated cylinder number for the I/O request described by the buffer argument, or simply the absolute
       logical	block  for  the  I/O  request, depending on how fine grained the sort is desired to be or how applicable either quantity is to the
       device in question.

       The head of the linked list is found by use of the av_forw structure element of the argument *dp. The tail of the linked list is  found	by
       use  of	the  av_back  structure element of the argument *dp. The av_forw element of the *bp argument is used by disksort() to maintain the
       forward linkage. The value at the head of the list presumably indicates the currently active disk area.

CONTEXT

       This function can be called from user or interrupt context.

WARNINGS

       disksort() does no locking. Therefore, any locking is completely the responsibility of the caller.
