__typeof__()的含义

    __typeof__(struct s *) xxx;

等同于:

    struct s * xxx;

下面的例子可以证明:

#include 
#include 

struct s {
    int x;
    int y;
    int z;
};

int main(void)
{
    __typeof__(struct s *) xxx;
    struct s * yyy;
    struct s zzz;
    printf("sizeof(xxx) is %d\n", sizeof(xxx));
    printf("sizeof(yyy) is %d\n", sizeof(yyy));
    printf("sizeof(zzz) is %d\n", sizeof(zzz));
}

$ gcc a.c && ./a.out
sizeof(xxx) is 8
sizeof(yyy) is 8
sizeof(zzz) is 12
