/* This file implements an allocator of memory blocks of given size (a
   "malloc front end"), based on an allocator of memory pages (a "malloc
   back end").

   The need for such an allocator arises because a memory block is often
   50 bytes large or less, whereas an allocator of memory pages provides
   entire pages (4096 bytes or more).

   This implementation attempts to be
     - simple and straight-forward,
     - respecting locality of reference,
     - usable for small allocations,
     - nevertheless of reasonable speed.

   Simple and straight-forward - means that it contains only a small amount
   of code (compared to e.g. tcmalloc).

   Respecting locality of reference - means that searching for a free block
   will not follow lists of pointers that touch unrelated cache lines in
   the same page or even unrelated memory pages, because that would cause
   cache misses or even swapping in of unrelated memory pages.

   Usable for small allocations - means that it can be used for data types
   with few instances.  It does not, unlike some other malloc implementations,
   allocate 256 KB of memory up-front.  Nor does it allocate memory pages
   per thread.

   Reasonable speed is nevertheless guaranteed by
     - choosing algorithms that lead to little fragmentation,
     - small caches where they make sense.

/* The user of this file needs to define the following macros before including
   this file:

     PAGESIZE           A variable-like macro of type intptr_t or uintptr_t
                        that evaluates to the memory page size (>= 4096).

     PAGESIZE_MAX       A constant that specifies an upper bound for PAGESIZE.

     ALLOC_PAGES        A function-like macro with the signature
                          uintptr_t ALLOC_PAGES (size_t size)
                        where the argument size is > 0 and a multiple of the
                        PAGESIZE.  It returns a multiple of PAGESIZE, or 0
                        upon failure.

     FREE_PAGES         A function-like macro with the signature
                          void FREE_PAGES (uintptr_t pages, size_t size)
                        where pages is a non-zero value returned by
                        ALLOC_PAGES (size).

     ALIGNMENT          A constant that specifies the desired alignment of all
                        the returned memory blocks.  Possible values are the
                        powers of 2, from sizeof (void *) to 32.

     PAGE_RESERVED_HEADER_SIZE   A constant, either 0 or a multiple of
                        sizeof (void *), that denotes the size of a reserved
                        header - not to be used by the application - at the
                        beginning of a page sequence returned by ALLOC_PAGES.

/* ============================= Implementation ============================= */

/* Outline of the implementation decisions (ID):

   * ID: This implementation considers three types of blocks:
     - small blocks - these are allocated in "small block" pages.
     - medium blocks - these are allocated in "medium block" pages.
     - large blocks - these are allocated individually, with a page or
       sequence of pages uniquely for this block.
   * Rationale:
     - Most memory allocations are small (e.g. <= 32 bytes); this is a lesson
       learned from xc/programs/Xserver/os/xalloc.c (1997) [Pascal Haible].
     - Fragmentation is one of the biggest problems, and keeping large
       blocks and small blocks separate from medium blocks is one way to
       control it.

   * ID: If an allocation succeeds in one page, the next allocation (of the
     same type of block) will try to use the same page.
   * Rationale: Locality of reference.

   * ID: Pages of small or medium blocks have their management data structures
     concentrated at the beginning of the page.  No chained lists that force
     to walk through the page.
   * Rationale: Locality of reference.

   * ID: Across pages, the management of the free space is done through data
     structures outside the pages.  No chained lists across pages.
   * Rationale: Locality of reference.
