The patch generates functions based on the defined prefix. E.g.
/* define paramters necessary to generate the tuple hash table interface */
#define SH_PREFIX tuplehash
#define SH_ELEMENT_TYPE TupleHashEntryData
#define SH_KEY_TYPE MinimalTuple
#define SH_SCOPE extern
#define SH_DECLARE
#include "lib/simplehash.h"
makes tuplehash_iterate out of
#define SH_START_ITERATE SH_MAKE_NAME(start_iterate)
...
SH_SCOPE void SH_START_ITERATE(SH_TYPE *tb, SH_ITERATOR *iter);
SH_SCOPE void
SH_START_ITERATE(SH_TYPE *tb, SH_ITERATOR *iter)
{
...
}
See the simplehash.h's header for some explanation.
Hope that helps,
Andres
