uint64_t	size

Detailed Description¶

There is no interaction with any OS memory allocation infrastructure, whether malloc, mmap, etc. The "address ranges" tracked by this allocator are arbitrary 64-bit integers. The allocator simply provides the bookeeping logic that ensures that a unique address with the appropriate size is returned for each allocation request, and that an allocation can be freed, ie released back to the available pool of logical address space for future allocations. The memory backing the allocator's internal data structures is managed by malloc()/free().
