/*

 * The SLAB allocator is closely modelled after Opensolaris SLAB allocator

 * http://www.usenix.org/events/usenix01/full_papers/bonwick/bonwick_html/

 *

 * with the following exceptions:

 *   - empty SLABS are deallocated immediately

 *     (in Linux they are kept in linked list, in Solaris ???)

 *   - empty magazines are deallocated when not needed

 *     (in Solaris they are held in linked list in slab cache)

 *

 *   Following features are not currently supported but would be easy to do:

 *   - cache coloring

 *   - dynamic magazine growing (different magazine sizes are already

 *     supported, but we would need to adjust allocating strategy)

 *

 * The SLAB allocator supports per-CPU caches ('magazines') to facilitate

 * good SMP scaling.

 *

 * When a new object is being allocated, it is first checked, if it is

 * available in CPU-bound magazine. If it is not found there, it is

 * allocated from CPU-shared SLAB - if partial full is found, it is used,

 * otherwise a new one is allocated.

 *

 * When an object is being deallocated, it is put to CPU-bound magazine.

 * If there is no such magazine, new one is allocated (if it fails,

 * the object is deallocated into SLAB). If the magazine is full, it is

 * put into cpu-shared list of magazines and new one is allocated.

 *

 * The CPU-bound magazine is actually a pair of magazine to avoid

 * thrashing when somebody is allocating/deallocating 1 item at the magazine

 * size boundary. LIFO order is enforced, which should avoid fragmentation

 * as much as possible.

 *  

 * Every cache contains list of full slabs and list of partialy full slabs.

 * Empty SLABS are immediately freed (thrashing will be avoided because

 * of magazines).

 *

 * The SLAB information structure is kept inside the data area, if possible.

 * The cache can be marked that it should not use magazines. This is used

 * only for SLAB related caches to avoid deadlocks and infinite recursion

 * (the SLAB allocator uses itself for allocating all it's control structures).

 *

 * The SLAB allocator allocates lot of space and does not free it. When

 * frame allocator fails to allocate the frame, it calls slab_reclaim().

 * It tries 'light reclaim' first, then brutal reclaim. The light reclaim

 * releases slabs from cpu-shared magazine-list, until at least 1 slab

 * is deallocated in each cache (this algorithm should probably change).

 * The brutal reclaim removes all cached objects, even from CPU-bound

 * magazines.
