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. * * 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. */ #if 1 /* Tor dependencies */ #include "orconfig.h" #include "util.h" #include "compat.h" #include "log.h" #define ALLOC(x) tor_malloc(x) #define FREE(x) tor_free(x) #define ASSERT(x) tor_assert(x) #undef ALLOC_CAN_RETURN_NULL #define TOR //#define ALLOC_ROUNDUP(p) tor_malloc_roundup(p) /* End Tor dependencies */ #else /* If you're not building this as part of Tor, you'll want to define the * following macros.
