Paging-safe allocation of locked memory.
Library for managing temporary, locked memory with the condition of
not calling any function during allocation that can lead to paging.
Such memory is needed by drivers that are used to access the page file
but still need locked memory to execute requests.
Basically, a background thread manages a memory pool where blocks
are allocated from. If the pool is empty, allocation is delayed until
either a blocks is freed or the pool is enlarged by the background
thread.
All memory blocks must have same size and can be pre-initialized when
added to memory pool (and cleaned-up when removed from pool). The
free list is stored within free memory blocks, so you have to specify
a block offset where the manager can store the list pointers without
interfering with pre-initialization.
You can also specify an alignment, e.g. if the blocks are used for
DMA access, a minimum pool size (in blocks), a maximum pool size
(in blocks) and the size of memory chunks to be added if the entire
pool is allocated.
