tests is some how important. At least knowing that all routines got
executed at least once.

C89 didn't have this style of comments. Use /* */ but maybe
consider using api comments above the function instead of
directly after {?

this is not lisp. Can you remove the number of braces? Now
that this is a method you can omit the () around p. In terms
of readability.

too early. please move that to the later patch.
