Function Documentation

void* pool_alloc	(	Pool *	p,
		size_t	size
	)

Dole out memory from the pool.

exhausts the freelist before returning new entries to improve locality.

Parameters

p	Pool*
size	bytes to allocate; ignored if pool_create's el_size was not 0.

Returns: allocated memory, or 0 if the Pool would have to be expanded and there isn't enough memory to do so.

Definition at line 120 of file pool.cpp.

size_t pool_committed ( Pool * p )

Return the number of bytes committed in the pool's backing array.

This is roughly the number of bytes allocated in this pool plus the unused freelist entries.

Parameters

p Pool*

Returns: number of bytes

Definition at line 174 of file pool.cpp.

bool pool_contains	(	const Pool *	p,
		void *	el
	)

indicate whether a pointer was allocated from the given pool.

this is useful for callers that use several types of allocators.

Parameters

p	Pool*
el

Returns: bool.

Definition at line 108 of file pool.cpp.

Status pool_create	(	Pool *	p,
		size_t	max_size,
		size_t	el_size
	)

Ready Pool for use.

Parameters

p	Pool*
max_size	Max size [bytes] of the Pool; this much (rounded up to next page multiple) virtual address space is reserved. no virtual memory is actually committed until calls to pool_alloc.
el_size	Number of bytes that will be returned by each pool_alloc (whose size parameter is then ignored). Can be 0 to allow variable-sized allocations, but pool_free is then unusable.

Returns: Status

Definition at line 86 of file pool.cpp.

Status pool_destroy ( Pool * p )

free all memory (address space + physical) that constitutes the given Pool.

future alloc and free calls on this pool will fail. continued use of the allocated memory (*) is impossible because it is marked not-present via MMU. (* no matter if in freelist or unused or "allocated" to user)

Parameters

p Pool*

Returns: Status.

Definition at line 98 of file pool.cpp.

void pool_free	(	Pool *	p,
		void *	el
	)

Make a fixed-size element available for reuse in the given Pool.

this is not allowed if the Pool was created for variable-size elements. rationale: avoids having to pass el_size here and compare with size when allocating; also prevents fragmentation and leaking memory.

Parameters

p	Pool*
el	Element returned by pool_alloc.

Definition at line 146 of file pool.cpp.

void pool_free_all ( Pool * p )

"free" all user allocations that ensued from the given Pool.

this resets it as if freshly pool_create-d, but doesn't release the underlying reserved virtual memory.

Parameters

p Pool*

Definition at line 164 of file pool.cpp.
