2 * SLOB Allocator: Simple List Of Blocks
3 *
4 * Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> 12/30/03
5 *
6 * How SLOB works:
7 *
8 * The core of SLOB is a traditional K&R style heap allocator, with
9 * support for returning aligned objects. The granularity of this
10 * allocator is 8 bytes on x86, though it's perhaps possible to reduce
11 * this to 4 if it's deemed worth the effort. The slob heap is a
12 * singly-linked list of pages from __get_free_page, grown on demand
13 * and allocation from the heap is currently first-fit.
14 *
15 * Above this is an implementation of kmalloc/kfree. Blocks returned
16 * from kmalloc are 8-byte aligned and prepended with a 8-byte header.
17 * If kmalloc is asked for objects of PAGE_SIZE or larger, it calls
18 * __get_free_pages directly so that it can return page-aligned blocks
19 * and keeps a linked list of such pages and their orders. These
20 * objects are detected in kfree() by their page alignment.
21 *
22 * SLAB is emulated on top of SLOB by simply calling constructors and
23 * destructors for every SLAB allocation. Objects are returned with
24 * the 8-byte alignment unless the SLAB_MUST_HWCACHE_ALIGN flag is
25 * set, in which case the low-level allocator will fragment blocks to
26 * create the proper alignment. Again, objects of page-size or greater
27 * are allocated by calling __get_free_pages. As SLAB objects know
28 * their size, no separate size bookkeeping is necessary and there is
29 * essentially no allocation space overhead.
