28 Memory allocation scheme for w32/w64:
30 - Buffers are mmap'ed using a very simple emulation of mmap/munmap
31 - During the temacs phase:
32 * we use a private heap declared to be stored into the `dumped_data'
33 * unfortunately, this heap cannot be made growable, so the size of
34 blocks it can allocate is limited to (0x80000 - pagesize)
35 * the blocks that are larger than this are allocated from the end
36 of the `dumped_data' array; there are not so many of them.
37 We use a very simple first-fit scheme to reuse those blocks.
38 * we check that the private heap does not cross the area used
39 by the bigger chunks.
40 - During the emacs phase:
41 * we create a private heap for new memory blocks
42 * we make sure that we never free a block that has been dumped.
43 Freeing a dumped block could work in principle, but may prove
44 unreliable if we distribute binaries of emacs.exe: MS does not
45 guarantee that the heap data structures are the same across all
46 versions of their OS, even though the API is available since XP. */

101 without losing too much space, we need to create a Windows heap at

103 available inside the NT kernel since XP will do this. It allows to
104 create a non-growable heap at a specific address. So before
105 dumping, we create a non-growable heap at the address of the
106 dumped_data[] array. After dumping, we reuse memory allocated

135 The W32 heap allocator can be used for a growable
136 heap or a non-growable one.
138 A growable heap is not compatible with a fixed base address for the
139 heap. Only a non-growable one is. One drawback of non-growable
140 heaps is that they can hold only objects smaller than a certain
141 size (the one defined below). Most of the largest blocks are GC'ed
