234/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
235// General principles:
236// - In user space the HEAP zone spread between the ELF zone and the STACK zone,
237//   as defined in the kernel_config.h file.
238// - The malloc library uses the mmap() syscall to create - on demand -
239//   one vseg in a given cluster. The size of this vseg is defined below
240//   by the MALLOC_LOCAL_STORE_SIZE parameter.
241// - For a standard malloc(), the target cluster is the cluster containing
242//   the core running the client thread.
243// - For a remote_malloc(), the target cluster is explicitely defined
244//   by the argument.
245// - In each cluster, the available storage in virtual space is handled by a
246//   local allocator using the buddy algorithm.
247//
248// TODO : In this first implementation one single - fixed size - vseg
249//        is allocated on demand in each cluster.
250//        We should introduce the possibility to dynamically allocate
251//        several vsegs in each cluster, using several mmap when required.
252/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
253// Free blocks organisation in each cluster :
254// - All free blocks have a size that is a power of 2, larger or equal
255//   to MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE (typically 64 bytes).
256// - All free blocks are aligned.
257// - They are pre-classed in an array of linked lists, where all blocks in a
258//   given list have the same size.
259// - The NEXT pointer implementing those linked lists is written
260//   in the first bytes of the block itself, using the unsigned int type.
261// - The pointers on the first free block for each size are stored in an
262//   array of pointers free[32] in the storage(x,y) descriptor.
263/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
264// Allocation policy:
265// - The block size required by the user can be any value, but the allocated
266//   block size can be larger than the requested size:
267// - The allocator computes actual_size, that is the smallest power of 2
268//   value larger or equal to the requested size AND larger or equal to
269//   MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE.
270// - It pop the linked list of free blocks corresponding to actual_size,
271//   and returns the block B if the list[actual_size] is not empty.
272// - If the list[actual_size] is empty, it pop the list[actual_size * 2].
273//   If a block B' is found, it breaks this block in 2 B/2 blocks, returns
274//   the first B/2 block and push the other B/2 block into list[actual_size].
275// - If the list[actual_size * 2] is empty, it pop the list[actual_size * 4].
276//   If a block B is found, it break this block in 3 blocks B/4, B/4 and B/2,
277//   returns the first B/4 block, push the other blocks B/4 and B/2 into
278//   the proper lists. etc...
279// - If no block satisfying the request is available it returns a failure
280//   (NULL pointer).
281// - This allocation policy has the nice following property:
282//   If the vseg is aligned (the vseg base is a multiple of the
283//   vseg size), all allocated blocks are aligned on the actual_size.
284/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
285// Free policy:
286// - Each allocated block is registered in an alloc[] array of unsigned char.
287// - This registration is required by the free() operation, because the size
288//   of the allocated block must be obtained from the base address of the block. 
289// - The number of entries in this array is equal to the max number
290//   of allocated block : MALLOC_LOCAL_STORE_SIZE / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE.
291// - For each allocated block, the value registered in the alloc[] array
292//   is log2( size_of_allocated_block ).
293// - The index in this array is computed from the allocated block base address:
294//      index = (block_base - vseg_base) / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE
295// - The alloc[] array is stored at the end of heap segment. This consume
296//   (1 / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE) of the total storage capacity.
