/* OVERVIEW:
 *
 *     This is an implementation of memory pools for Tor cells.  It may be
 *     useful for you too.
 *
 *     Generally, a memory pool is an allocation strategy optimized for large
 *     numbers of identically-sized objects.  Rather than the elaborate arena
 *     and coalescing strategies you need to get good performance for a
 *     general-purpose malloc(), pools use a series of large memory "chunks",
 *     each of which is carved into a bunch of smaller "items" or
 *     "allocations".
 *
 *     To get decent performance, you need to:
 *        - Minimize the number of times you hit the underlying allocator.
 *        - Try to keep accesses as local in memory as possible.
 *        - Try to keep the common case fast.
 *
 *     Our implementation uses three lists of chunks per pool.  Each chunk can
 *     be either "full" (no more room for items); "empty" (no items); or
 *     "used" (not full, not empty).  There are independent doubly-linked
 *     lists for each state.
 *
 * CREDIT:
 *
 *     I wrote this after looking at 3 or 4 other pooling allocators, but
 *     without copying.  The strategy this most resembles (which is funny,
 *     since that's the one I looked at longest ago) is the pool allocator
 *     underlying Python's obmalloc code.  Major differences from obmalloc's
 *     pools are:
 *       - We don't even try to be threadsafe.
 *       - We only handle objects of one size.
 *       - Our list of empty chunks is doubly-linked, not singly-linked.
 *         (This could change pretty easily; it's only doubly-linked for
 *         consistency.)
 *       - We keep a list of full chunks (so we can have a "nuke everything"
 *         function).  Obmalloc's pools leave full chunks to float unanchored.
 *
 *         [XXXX020 Another way to support 'nuke everything' would be to keep
 *         _all_ the chunks in a doubly-linked-list.  This would have more
 *         space overhead per chunk, but less pointer manipulation overhead
 *         than the current approach.]
 *
 * LIMITATIONS:
 *   - Not even slightly threadsafe.
 *   - Likes to have lots of items per chunks.
 *   - One pointer overhead per allocated thing.  (The alternative is
 *     something like glib's use of an RB-tree to keep track of what
 *     chunk any given piece of memory is in.)
 *   - Only aligns allocated things to void* level: redefign ALIGNMENT_TYPE
 *     if you need doubles.
 *   - Could probably be optimized a bit; the representation contains
 *     a bit more info than it really needs to have.
 *   - probably, chunks should always be a power of 2.
