260/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
261// General principles:
262// - In user space the HEAP zone spread between the ELF zone and the STACK zone,
263//   as defined in the kernel_config.h file.
264// - The malloc library uses the mmap() syscall to create - on demand -
265//   one vseg in a given cluster. The size of this vseg is defined below
266//   by the MALLOC_LOCAL_STORE_SIZE parameter.
267// - For a standard malloc(), the target cluster is the cluster containing
268//   the core running the client thread.
269// - For a remote_malloc(), the target cluster is explicitely defined
270//   by the argument.
271// - In each cluster, the available storage in virtual space is handled by a
272//   local allocator using the buddy algorithm.
273//
274// TODO : In this first implementation one single - fixed size - vseg
275//        is allocated on demand in each cluster.
276//        We should introduce the possibility to dynamically allocate
277//        several vsegs in each cluster, using several mmap when required.
278/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
279// Free blocks organisation in each cluster :
280// - All free blocks have a size that is a power of 2, larger or equal
281//   to MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE (typically 64 bytes).
282// - All free blocks are aligned.
283// - They are pre-classed in an array of linked lists, where all blocks in a
284//   given list have the same size.
285// - The NEXT pointer implementing those linked lists is written
286//   in the first bytes of the block itself, using the unsigned int type.
287// - The pointers on the first free block for each size are stored in an
288//   array of pointers free[32] in the storage(x,y) descriptor.
289/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
290// Allocation policy:
291// - The block size required by the user can be any value, but the allocated
292//   block size can be larger than the requested size:
293// - The allocator computes actual_size, that is the smallest power of 2
294//   value larger or equal to the requested size AND larger or equal to
295//   MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE.
296// - It pop the linked list of free blocks corresponding to actual_size,
297//   and returns the block B if the list[actual_size] is not empty.
298// - If the list[actual_size] is empty, it pop the list[actual_size * 2].
299//   If a block B' is found, it breaks this block in 2 B/2 blocks, returns
300//   the first B/2 block and push the other B/2 block into list[actual_size].
301// - If the list[actual_size * 2] is empty, it pop the list[actual_size * 4].
302//   If a block B is found, it break this block in 3 blocks B/4, B/4 and B/2,
303//   returns the first B/4 block, push the other blocks B/4 and B/2 into
304//   the proper lists. etc...
305// - If no block satisfying the request is available it returns a failure
306//   (NULL pointer).
307// - This allocation policy has the nice following property:
308//   If the vseg is aligned (the vseg base is a multiple of the
309//   vseg size), all allocated blocks are aligned on the actual_size.
310/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
311// Free policy:
312// - Each allocated block is registered in an alloc[] array of unsigned char.
313// - This registration is required by the free() operation, because the size
314//   of the allocated block must be obtained from the base address of the block. 
315// - The number of entries in this array is equal to the max number
316//   of allocated block : MALLOC_LOCAL_STORE_SIZE / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE.
317// - For each allocated block, the value registered in the alloc[] array
318//   is log2( size_of_allocated_block ).
319// - The index in this array is computed from the allocated block base address:
320//      index = (block_base - vseg_base) / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE
321// - The alloc[] array is stored at the end of heap segment. This consume
322//   (1 / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE) of the total storage capacity.
