第十五章 Linux核心数据结构
本章列出了Linux实用的主要数据结构。
block_dev_struct
此结构用于向核心登记块设备，它还被buffer
cache实用。所有此类结构都位于blk_dev数组中。
struct blk_dev_struct {
void (*request_fn)(void);
struct request * current_request;
struct request plug;
struct tq_struct plug_tq;
};
buffer_head
此结构包含关于buffer cache中一块缓存的信息。
/* bh state bits */
#define BH_Uptodate 0 /* 1 if the buffer contains valid data */
#define BH_Dirty 1 /* 1 if the buffer is dirty */
#define BH_Lock 2 /* 1 if the buffer is locked */
#define BH_Req 3 /* 0 if the buffer has been invalidated */
#define BH_Touched 4 /* 1 if the buffer has been touched (aging) */
#define BH_Has_aged 5 /* 1 if the buffer has been aged (aging) */
#define BH_Protected 6 /* 1 if the buffer is protected */
#define BH_FreeOnIO 7 /* 1 to discard the buffer_head after IO */
struct buffer_head {
/* First cache line: */
unsigned long b_blocknr; /* block number */
kdev_t b_dev; /* device (B_FREE = free) */

page */

* This is the first field of the "visible" part of this structure
* (i.e. as seen by users in the "Space.c" file). It is the name
* the interface.

the usual set specified in Space.c. */
unsigned char if_port; /* Selectable AUI,TP, */
unsigned char dma; /* DMA channel */
struct enet_statistics* (*get_stats)(struct device *dev);
/*
* This marks the end of the "visible" part of the structure. All
* fields hereafter are internal to the system, and may change at
* will (read: may be cleaned up at will).
