Our list_sort() utility has always supported a context argument that is passed through to the comparison routine. Now there's a use case for the similar thing for sort(). This implements sort_r by simply extending the existing sort function in the obvious way. To avoid code duplication, we want to implement sort() in terms of sort_r(). The naive way to do that is static int cmp_wrapper(const void *a, const void *b, const void *ctx) { int (*real_cmp)(const void*, const void*) = ctx; return real_cmp(a, b); } sort(..., cmp) { sort_r(..., cmp_wrapper, cmp) } but this would do two indirect calls for each comparison. Instead, do as is done for the default swap functions - that only adds a cost of a single easily predicted branch to each comparison call. Aside from introducing support for the context argument, this also serves as preparation for patches that will eliminate the indirect comparison calls in common cases.
