Function Documentation

void* apr_rmm_addr_get	(	apr_rmm_t *	rmm,
		apr_rmm_off_t	entity
	)

Retrieve the physical address of a relocatable allocation of memory

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	entity	The memory allocation to free

Returns:

address The address, aligned with APR_ALIGN_DEFAULT.

apr_status_t apr_rmm_attach	(	apr_rmm_t **	rmm,
		apr_anylock_t *	lock,
		void *	membuf,
		apr_pool_t *	cont
	)

Attach to a relocatable memory block already managed by the apr_rmm API.

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	lock	An apr_anylock_t of the appropriate type of lock
	membuf	The block of relocatable memory already under management
	cont	The pool to use for local storage and management

apr_rmm_off_t apr_rmm_calloc	(	apr_rmm_t *	rmm,
		apr_size_t	reqsize
	)

Allocate memory from the block of relocatable memory and initialize it to zero.

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	reqsize	How much memory to allocate

apr_status_t apr_rmm_destroy

(

apr_rmm_t *

rmm

)

Destroy a managed memory block.

Parameters:

rmm

The relocatable memory block to destroy

apr_status_t apr_rmm_detach

(

apr_rmm_t *

rmm

)

Detach from the managed block of memory.

Parameters:

rmm

The relocatable memory block to detach from

apr_status_t apr_rmm_free	(	apr_rmm_t *	rmm,
		apr_rmm_off_t	entity
	)

Free allocation returned by apr_rmm_malloc or apr_rmm_calloc.

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	entity	The memory allocation to free

apr_status_t apr_rmm_init	(	apr_rmm_t **	rmm,
		apr_anylock_t *	lock,
		void *	membuf,
		apr_size_t	memsize,
		apr_pool_t *	cont
	)

Initialize a relocatable memory block to be managed by the apr_rmm API.

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	lock	An apr_anylock_t of the appropriate type of lock, or NULL if no locking is required.
	membuf	The block of relocatable memory to be managed
	memsize	The size of relocatable memory block to be managed
	cont	The pool to use for local storage and management

Remarks:

Both

Parameters:

	membuf	and
	memsize	must be aligned (for instance using APR_ALIGN_DEFAULT).

apr_rmm_off_t apr_rmm_malloc	(	apr_rmm_t *	rmm,
		apr_size_t	reqsize
	)

Allocate memory from the block of relocatable memory.

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	reqsize	How much memory to allocate

apr_rmm_off_t apr_rmm_offset_get	(	apr_rmm_t *	rmm,
		void *	entity
	)

Compute the offset of a relocatable allocation of memory

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	entity	The physical address to convert to an offset

apr_size_t apr_rmm_overhead_get

(

int

n

)

Compute the required overallocation of memory needed to fit n allocs

Parameters:

n

The number of alloc/calloc regions desired

apr_rmm_off_t apr_rmm_realloc	(	apr_rmm_t *	rmm,
		void *	entity,
		apr_size_t	reqsize
	)

Realloc memory from the block of relocatable memory.

Parameters:

	rmm	The relocatable memory block
	entity	The memory allocation to realloc
	reqsize	The new size
