Last change on this file since 625 was 625, checked in by alain, 5 years ago

Fix a bug in the vmm_remove_vseg() function: the physical pages
associated to an user DATA vseg were released to the kernel when
the target process descriptor was in the reference cluster.
This physical pages release should be done only when the page
forks counter value is zero.
All other modifications are cosmetic.

271/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
272// General principles:
273// - In user space the HEAP zone spread between the ELF zone and the STACK zone,
274//   as defined in the kernel_config.h file.
275// - The malloc library uses the mmap() syscall to create - on demand -
276//   one vseg in a given cluster. The size of this vseg is defined below
277//   by the MALLOC_LOCAL_STORE_SIZE parameter.
278// - For a standard malloc(), the target cluster is the cluster containing
279//   the core running the client thread.
280// - For a remote_malloc(), the target cluster is explicitely defined
281//   by the argument.
282// - In each cluster, the available storage in virtual space is handled by a
283//   local allocator using the buddy algorithm.
284//
285// TODO : In this first implementation one single - fixed size - vseg
286//        is allocated on demand in each cluster.
287//        We should introduce the possibility to dynamically allocate
288//        several vsegs in each cluster, using several mmap when required.
289/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
290// Free blocks organisation in each cluster :
291// - All free blocks have a size that is a power of 2, larger or equal
292//   to MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE (typically 64 bytes).
293// - All free blocks are aligned.
294// - They are pre-classed in an array of linked lists, where all blocks in a
295//   given list have the same size.
296// - The NEXT pointer implementing those linked lists is written
297//   in the first bytes of the block itself, using the unsigned int type.
298// - The pointers on the first free block for each size are stored in an
299//   array of pointers free[32] in the storage(x,y) descriptor.
300/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
301// Allocation policy:
302// - The block size required by the user can be any value, but the allocated
303//   block size can be larger than the requested size:
304// - The allocator computes actual_size, that is the smallest power of 2
305//   value larger or equal to the requested size AND larger or equal to
306//   MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE.
307// - It pop the linked list of free blocks corresponding to actual_size,
308//   and returns the block B if the list[actual_size] is not empty.
309// - If the list[actual_size] is empty, it pop the list[actual_size * 2].
310//   If a block B' is found, it breaks this block in 2 B/2 blocks, returns
311//   the first B/2 block and push the other B/2 block into list[actual_size].
312// - If the list[actual_size * 2] is empty, it pop the list[actual_size * 4].
313//   If a block B is found, it break this block in 3 blocks B/4, B/4 and B/2,
314//   returns the first B/4 block, push the other blocks B/4 and B/2 into
315//   the proper lists. etc...
316// - If no block satisfying the request is available it returns a failure
317//   (NULL pointer).
318// - This allocation policy has the nice following property:
319//   If the vseg is aligned (the vseg base is a multiple of the
320//   vseg size), all allocated blocks are aligned on the actual_size.
321/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
322// Free policy:
323// - Each allocated block is registered in an alloc[] array of unsigned char.
324// - This registration is required by the free() operation, because the size
325//   of the allocated block must be obtained from the base address of the block. 
326// - The number of entries in this array is equal to the max number
327//   of allocated block : MALLOC_LOCAL_STORE_SIZE / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE.
328// - For each allocated block, the value registered in the alloc[] array
329//   is log2( size_of_allocated_block ).
330// - The index in this array is computed from the allocated block base address:
331//      index = (block_base - vseg_base) / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE
332// - The alloc[] array is stored at the end of heap segment. This consume
333//   (1 / MALLOC_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE) of the total storage capacity.
