107 * === Resource classes
109 * A resource class describes how to handle a particular type of resources.
110 * Most importantly, it defines a set of (optional) callbacks for performing operations
113 * * dump() should print a description of the resource used for debugging
114 * to the standard output. The description should end with a newline character
115 * and in case of a multi-line description, the subsequent lines should be
116 * indented by @indent spaces.
117 * * free() frees the resource; the struct resource is freed automatically afterwards.
118 * * detach() breaks the link between the struct resource and the real resource;
119 * the struct resource is freed automatically afterwards, while the resource
122 * The following functions are intended for use by the resource classes only.

131 uns res_size; // Size of the resource structure (0=default)

136 * This resource can be added to the current pool by @res_add().

147 * Links a pre-initialized resource to the active pool.
149 void res_add(struct resource *r);
152 * Unlinks a resource from a pool and releases its meta-data. Unlike @res_detach(),
153 * it does not invoke any callbacks. The caller must make sure that no references to
154 * the meta-data remain, so this is generally safe only inside resource class code.
156 void res_drop(struct resource *r);
159 * Creates a new resource of the specific class, setting its private data to @priv.
160 * Dies if no resource pool is active.
