+ * zbud.c
+ *
+ * Copyright (C) 2013, Seth Jennings, IBM
+ *
+ * Concepts based on zcache internal zbud allocator by Dan Magenheimer.
+ *
+ * zbud is an special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages. Contrary
+ * to what its name may suggest, zbud is not a buddy allocator, but rather an
+ * allocator that "buddies" two compressed pages together in a single memory
+ * page.
+ *
+ * While this design limits storage density, it has simple and deterministic
+ * reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher density approach when
+ * reclaim will be used.
+ *
+ * zbud works by storing compressed pages, or "zpages", together in pairs in a
+ * single memory page called a "zbud page". The first buddy is "left
+ * justified" at the beginning of the zbud page, and the last buddy is "right
+ * justified" at the end of the zbud page. The benefit is that if either
+ * buddy is freed, the freed buddy space, coalesced with whatever slack space
+ * that existed between the buddies, results in the largest possible free region
+ * within the zbud page.
+ *
+ * zbud also provides an attractive lower bound on density. The ratio of zpages
+ * to zbud pages can not be less than 1. This ensures that zbud can never "do
+ * harm" by using more pages to store zpages than the uncompressed zpages would
+ * have used on their own.
+ *
+ * zbud pages are divided into "chunks". The size of the chunks is fixed at
+ * compile time and determined by NCHUNKS_ORDER below. Dividing zbud pages
+ * into chunks allows organizing unbuddied zbud pages into a manageable number
+ * of unbuddied lists according to the number of free chunks available in the
+ * zbud page.
+ *
+ * The zbud API differs from that of conventional allocators in that the
+ * allocation function, zbud_alloc(), returns an opaque handle to the user,
+ * not a dereferenceable pointer. The user must map the handle using
+ * zbud_map() in order to get a usable pointer by which to access the
+ * allocation data and unmap the handle with zbud_unmap() when operations
+ * on the allocation data are complete.
