+ * Returns a pointer the the containing struct of a given member item.
+ *
+ * To demonstrate, the following example retrieves a pointer to
+ * `example_container` given only its `destroy_listener` member:
+ *
+ * @code
+ * struct example_container {
+ * struct wl_listener destroy_listener;
+ * // other members...
+ * };
+ *
+ * void example_container_destroy(struct wl_listener *listener, void *data)
+ * {
+ * struct example_container *ctr;
+ *
+ * ctr = wl_container_of(listener, ctr, destroy_listener);
+ * // destroy ctr...
+ * }
+ * @endcode
+ *
+ * @param ptr A valid pointer to the contained item.
+ *
+ * @param type A pointer to the type of content that the list item
+ * stores. Type does not need be a valid pointer; a null or
+ * an uninitialised pointer will suffice.
+ *
+ * @param member The named location of ptr within the sample type.
+ *
+ * @return The container for the specified pointer.
