/*
* Memory pool theory of operation
*
* This allocator is not useful for general purpose but works well within the
* context of allocating cryptographic keys. It makes several assumptions which
* don't work for implementing malloc but simplify and speed up the implementation:
*
* - There is some set of pages, which cannot be expanded later. These are pages
*   which were allocated, mlocked and passed to the Memory_Pool constructor.
*
* - The allocator is allowed to return null anytime it feels like not servicing
*   a request, in which case the request will be sent to calloc instead. In
*   particular, requests which are too small or too large are rejected.
*
* - Most allocations are powers of 2, the remainder are usually a multiple of 8
*
* - Free requests include the size of the allocation, so there is no need to
*   track this within the pool.
*
* - Alignment is important to the caller. For this allocator, any allocation of
*   size N is aligned evenly at N bytes.
*
* Initially each page is in the free page list. Each page is used for just one
* size of allocation, with requests bucketed into a small number of common
* sizes. If the allocation would be too big or too small it is rejected by the pool.
*
* The free list is maintained by a bitmap, one per page/Bucket. Since each
* Bucket only maintains objects of a single size, each bit set or clear
* indicates the status of one object.
*
* An allocation walks the list of buckets and asks each in turn if there is
* space. If a Bucket does not have any space, it sets a boolean flag m_is_full
* so that it does not need to rescan when asked again. The flag is cleared on
* first free from that bucket. If no bucket has space, but there are some free
* pages left, a free page is claimed as a new Bucket for that size. In this case
* it is pushed to the front of the list so it is first in line to service new
* requests.
*
* A deallocation also walks the list of buckets for the size and asks each
* Bucket in turn if it recognizes the pointer. When a Bucket becomes empty as a
* result of a deallocation, it is recycled back into the free pool. When this
* happens, the Buckets page goes to the end of the free list. All pages on the
* free list are marked in the MMU as noaccess, so anything touching them will
* immediately crash. They are only marked R/W once placed into a new bucket.
* Making the free list FIFO maximizes the time between the last free of a bucket
* and that page being writable again, maximizing chances of crashing after a
* use-after-free.
*
* Future work
* -------------
*
* The allocator is protected by a global lock. It would be good to break this
* up, since almost all of the work can actually be done in parallel especially
* when allocating objects of different sizes (which can't possibly share a
* bucket).
*
* It may be worthwhile to optimize deallocation by storing the Buckets in order
* (by pointer value) which would allow binary search to find the owning bucket.
*
* A useful addition would be to randomize the allocations. Memory_Pool would be
* changed to receive also a RandomNumberGenerator& object (presumably the system
* RNG, or maybe a ChaCha_RNG seeded with system RNG). Then the bucket to use and
* the offset within the bucket would be chosen randomly, instead of using first fit.
*
* Right now we don't make any provision for threading, so if two threads both
* allocate 32 byte values one after the other, the two allocations will likely
* share a cache line. Ensuring that distinct threads will (tend to) use distinct
* buckets would reduce this.
*
* Supporting a realloc-style API may be useful.
