Looking for elfmalloc in particular? It's here.
This repository encompasses a number of different crates. Some are general memory allocators, some are object allocators (allocators which allocate a specific type of object), and some are utility crates providing various features needed to implement these allocators.
The info directory contains more detailed information, including performance
measurements. Aside from info, all top-level directories are Rust crates.
More detailed information on each crate can be found in the crate's README.md.
| Crate | Description |
|---|---|
elfmalloc |
A general-purpose multi-threaded allocator providing both Rust Alloc and C malloc APIs |
slab-alloc |
An object-specific slab allocator in the same tradition as the original slab allocator by Jeff Bonwick |
bsalloc |
A simple general-purpose "bootstrapping" allocator used in the implementation of other allocators |
mmap-alloc |
An Alloc API which is a thin wrapper around mmap (on Unix) or VirtualAlloc (on Windows) |
| Crate | Description |
|---|---|
alloc-fmt |
Allocation-safe formatting and debugging macros |
alloc-tls |
Allocation-safe thread-local storage |
bagpipe |
Fast, concurrent data structures including queues and a weakly-ordered bag data structure (design) |
malloc-bind |
Bindings to allow a Rust Alloc to implement the C malloc API |
object-alloc |
Traits representing type-specific variants of the Alloc trait |
object-alloc-test |
A correctness test suite for object allocator implementations (uses the traits defined in object-alloc) |
