INTRODUCTION
============
BGET is a comprehensive memory allocation package which is easily
configured to the needs of an application. BGET is efficient in
both the time needed to allocate and release buffers and in the
memory overhead required for buffer pool management. It
automatically consolidates contiguous space to minimise
fragmentation. BGET is configured by compile-time definitions,
Major options include:
* A built-in test program to exercise BGET and
demonstrate how the various functions are used.
* Allocation by either the "first fit" or "best fit"
method.
* Wiping buffers at release time to catch code which
references previously released storage.
* Built-in routines to dump individual buffers or the
entire buffer pool.
* Retrieval of allocation and pool size statistics.
* Quantisation of buffer sizes to a power of two to
satisfy hardware alignment constraints.
* Automatic pool compaction, growth, and shrinkage by
means of call-backs to user defined functions.
Applications of BGET can range from storage management in
ROM-based embedded programs to providing the framework upon which
a multitasking system incorporating garbage collection is
constructed. BGET incorporates extensive internal consistency
checking using the <assert.h> mechanism; all these checks can be
turned off by compiling with NDEBUG defined, yielding a version of
BGET with minimal size and maximum speed.
The basic algorithm underlying BGET has withstood the test of
time; more than 25 years have passed since the first
implementation of this code. And yet, it is substantially more
efficient than the native allocation schemes of many operating
systems: the Macintosh and Microsoft Windows to name two, on which
programs have obtained substantial speed-ups by layering BGET as
an application level memory manager atop the underlying system's.
BGET has been implemented on the largest mainframes and the lowest
of microprocessors. It has served as the core for multitasking
operating systems, multi-thread applications, embedded software in
data network switching processors, and a host of C programs. And
while it has accreted flexibility and additional options over the
years, it remains fast, memory efficient, portable, and easy to
integrate into your program.
BGET IMPLEMENTATION ASSUMPTIONS
===============================
BGET is written in as portable a dialect of C as possible. The
only fundamental assumption about the underlying hardware
architecture is that memory is allocated is a linear array which
can be addressed as a vector of C "char" objects. On segmented
address space architectures, this generally means that BGET should
be used to allocate storage within a single segment (although some
compilers simulate linear address spaces on segmented
architectures). On segmented architectures, then, BGET buffer
pools may not be larger than a segment, but since BGET allows any
number of separate buffer pools, there is no limit on the total
storage which can be managed, only on the largest individual
object which can be allocated. Machines with a linear address
architecture, such as the VAX, 680x0, Sparc, MIPS, or the Intel
80386 and above in native mode, may use BGET without restriction.
GETTING STARTED WITH BGET
=========================
Although BGET can be configured in a multitude of fashions, there
are three basic ways of working with BGET. The functions
mentioned below are documented in the following section. Please
excuse the forward references which are made in the interest of
providing a roadmap to guide you to the BGET functions you're
likely to need.
Embedded Applications
---------------------
Embedded applications typically have a fixed area of memory
dedicated to buffer allocation (often in a separate RAM address
space distinct from the ROM that contains the executable code).
To use BGET in such an environment, simply call bpool() with the
start address and length of the buffer pool area in RAM, then
allocate buffers with bget() and release them with brel().
Embedded applications with very limited RAM but abundant CPU speed
may benefit by configuring BGET for BestFit allocation (which is
usually not worth it in other environments).
Malloc() Emulation
------------------
If the C library malloc() function is too slow, not present in
your development environment (for example, an a native Windows or
Macintosh program), or otherwise unsuitable, you can replace it
with BGET. Initially define a buffer pool of an appropriate size
with bpool()--usually obtained by making a call to the operating
system's low-level memory allocator. Then allocate buffers with
bget(), bgetz(), and bgetr() (the last two permit the allocation
of buffers initialised to zero and [inefficient] re-allocation of
existing buffers for compatibility with C library functions).
Release buffers by calling brel(). If a buffer allocation request
fails, obtain more storage from the underlying operating system,
add it to the buffer pool by another call to bpool(), and continue
execution.
Automatic Storage Management
----------------------------
You can use BGET as your application's native memory manager and
implement automatic storage pool expansion, contraction, and
optionally application-specific memory compaction by compiling
BGET with the BECtl variable defined, then calling bectl() and
supplying functions for storage compaction, acquisition, and
release, as well as a standard pool expansion increment. All of
these functions are optional (although it doesn't make much sense
to provide a release function without an acquisition function,
does it?). Once the call-back functions have been defined with
bectl(), you simply use bget() and brel() to allocate and release
storage as before. You can supply an initial buffer pool with
bpool() or rely on automatic allocation to acquire the entire
pool. When a call on bget() cannot be satisfied, BGET first
checks if a compaction function has been supplied. If so, it is
called (with the space required to satisfy the allocation request
and a sequence number to allow the compaction routine to be called
successively without looping). If the compaction function is able
to free any storage (it needn't know whether the storage it freed
was adequate) it should return a nonzero value, whereupon BGET
will retry the allocation request and, if it fails again, call the
compaction function again with the next-higher sequence number.
If the compaction function returns zero, indicating failure to
free space, or no compaction function is defined, BGET next tests
whether a non-NULL allocation function was supplied to bectl().
If so, that function is called with an argument indicating how
many bytes of additional space are required. This will be the
standard pool expansion increment supplied in the call to bectl()
unless the original bget() call requested a buffer larger than
this; buffers larger than the standard pool block can be managed
"off the books" by BGET in this mode. If the allocation function
succeeds in obtaining the storage, it returns a pointer to the new
block and BGET expands the buffer pool; if it fails, the
allocation request fails and returns NULL to the caller. If a
non-NULL release function is supplied, expansion blocks which
become totally empty are released to the global free pool by
passing their addresses to the release function.
Equipped with appropriate allocation, release, and compaction
functions, BGET can be used as part of very sophisticated memory
management strategies, including garbage collection. (Note,
however, that BGET is *not* a garbage collector by itself, and
that developing such a system requires much additional logic and
careful design of the application's memory allocation strategy.)
BGET FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
==========================
Functions implemented in this file (some are enabled by certain of
the optional settings below):
void bpool(void *buffer, bufsize len);
Create a buffer pool of <len> bytes, using the storage starting at
<buffer>. You can call bpool() subsequently to contribute
additional storage to the overall buffer pool.
void *bget(bufsize size);
Allocate a buffer of <size> bytes. The address of the buffer is
returned, or NULL if insufficient memory was available to allocate
the buffer.
void *bgetz(bufsize size);
