RtlSubtreePredecessor function (ntddk.h)
The RtlSubtreePredecessor routine returns a pointer to the predecessor of the specified node within the subtree that is rooted at that node.
Syntax
NTSYSAPI PRTL_SPLAY_LINKS RtlSubtreePredecessor(
[in] PRTL_SPLAY_LINKS Links
);
Parameters
[in] Links
A pointer to the node. The node must have been initialized by calling RtlInitializeSplayLinks.
Return value
RtlSubtreePredecessor returns a pointer to the subtree predecessor of the node at Links, or NULL if the node has no subtree predecessor.
Remarks
If the node at Links has a left subtree, the rightmost node of that subtree is the subtree predecessor.
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 RtlSubtreePredecessor must be running at IRQL <= DISPATCH_LEVEL if the tree is nonpaged. Usually, callers are running at IRQL PASSIVE_LEVEL.
