Subject: [PATCH 2/8] lib min_heap: Add typedef for sift_down function pointer
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2025 05:55:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250610215516.1513296-3-visitorckw@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250610215516.1513296-1-visitorckw@gmail.com>

Several min-heap operations such as min_heapify_all(), min_heap_pop(),
min_heap_pop_push(), and min_heap_del() use min_heap_sift_down()
internally. With the addition of the equal-elements-aware variant
min_heap_sift_down_eqaware(), these functions now need to choose
between multiple sift_down implementations.

Introduce a siftdown_fn_t typedef to represent the function pointer
type for sift_down routines. This avoids repeating verbose function
pointer declarations and simplifies code that dynamically selects the
appropriate implementation based on heap characteristics.
