63 * flex_array_alloc - allocate a new flexible array
64 * @element_size: the size of individual elements in the array
65 * @total: total number of elements that this should hold
67 * Note: all locking must be provided by the caller.
69 * @total is used to size internal structures. If the user ever
70 * accesses any array indexes >=@total, it will produce errors.
72 * The maximum number of elements is defined as: the number of
73 * elements that can be stored in a page times the number of
74 * page pointers that we can fit in the base structure or (using
75 * integer math):
77 * (PAGE_SIZE/element_size) * (PAGE_SIZE-8)/sizeof(void *)
79 * Here's a table showing example capacities. Note that the maximum
80 * index that the get/put() functions is just nr_objects-1. This
81 * basically means that you get 4MB of storage on 32-bit and 2MB on
82 * 64-bit.
85 * Element size | Objects | Objects |
86 * PAGE_SIZE=4k | 32-bit | 64-bit |
87 * ---------------------------------|
88 * 1 bytes | 4186112 | 2093056 |
89 * 2 bytes | 2093056 | 1046528 |
90 * 3 bytes | 1395030 | 697515 |
91 * 4 bytes | 1046528 | 523264 |
92 * 32 bytes | 130816 | 65408 |
93 * 33 bytes | 126728 | 63364 |

95 * 2049 bytes | 1022 | 511 |
96 * void * | 1046528 | 261632 |
98 * Since 64-bit pointers are twice the size, we lose half the
99 * capacity in the base structure. Also note that no effort is made
100 * to efficiently pack objects across page boundaries.
