RtlSubtreeSuccessor function (ntddk.h)

The RtlSubtreeSuccessor routine returns a pointer to the successor of the specified node within the subtree that is rooted at that node.

Syntax

NTSYSAPI PRTL_SPLAY_LINKS RtlSubtreeSuccessor(
  [in] PRTL_SPLAY_LINKS Links
);

Parameters

[in] Links

A pointer to the node. The node must have been initialized by calling RtlInitializeSplayLinks.

Return value

RtlSubtreeSuccessor returns a pointer to the subtree successor of the node at Links, or NULL if the given node has no subtree successor.

Remarks

If the node at Links has a right subtree, the leftmost node of that subtree is the subtree successor.

Callers of the Rtl splay link routines are responsible for synchronizing access to the splay link tree. A fast mutex is the most efficient synchronization mechanism to use for this purpose.

Callers of RtlSubtreeSuccessor must be running at IRQL <= DISPATCH_LEVEL if the tree is nonpaged. If the tree is paged, callers must be running at IRQL < DISPATCH_LEVEL. Usually callers are running at IRQL PASSIVE_LEVEL.
