2021-12-01	Page allocator moved from pools to IO loops.	Maria Matejka
	The resource pool system is highly hierarchical and keeping spare pages in pools leads to unnecessarily complex memory management. Loops have a flat hiearchy, at least for now, and it is therefore much easier to keep care of pages, especially in cases of excessive virtual memory fragmentation.
2021-11-27	Memory statistics split into Effective and Overhead	Maria Matejka
	This feature is intended mostly for checking that BIRD's allocation strategies don't consume much memory space. There are some cases where withdrawing routes in a specific order lead to memory fragmentation and this output should give the user at least a notion of how much memory is actually used for data storage and how much memory is "just allocated" or used for overhead. Also raising the "system allocator overhead estimation" from 8 to 16 bytes; it is probably even more. I've found 16 as a local minimum in best scenarios among reachable machines. I couldn't find any reasonable method to estimate this value when BIRD starts up. This commit also fixes the inaccurate computation of memory overhead for slabs where the "system allocater overhead estimation" was improperly added to the size of mmap-ed memory.
2021-10-13	Linpools may use pages instead of xmalloc	Maria Matejka

2017-12-13	Lib: Minor fix	Ondrej Zajicek (work)

2017-12-12	Lib: Save/restore state for linpools	Ondrej Zajicek (work)
	Also change linpool.current ptr to really point to thr current chunk.
2017-05-16	Linpool: default allocation size	Jan Moskyto Matejka

2015-06-08	unsigned [int] -> uint	Pavel Tvrdík

2014-04-14	Fixed bug in unused function.	Ondrej Filip

2010-06-02	Implements command that shows memory usage.	Ondrej Zajicek

2009-09-17	Fixes headers for uintptr_t (and build on NetBSD).	Ondrej Zajicek

2009-09-04	Clear memory allocated by ralloc().	Ondrej Zajicek
	This also fixes bug that timer->recurrent was not cleared in tm_new() and unexpected recurrence of startup timer in BGP confused state machine and caused crash.
2009-07-06	Fixes memory alignment problems on Sparc64.	Ondrej Zajicek
	Not quite standard construction, i should add some autoconf macro. Not tested yet.
2004-06-01	ALIGN -> BIRD_ALIGN	Ondrej Filip

2001-01-17	Bug fix from Zheng Yuan <zyuan1@cig.mot.com>.	Martin Mares

2000-06-05	Documented memory resources.	Martin Mares

2000-05-08	Implemented debugging function rlookup() which you can call from gdb	Martin Mares
	to see what resource does the address given as a parameter belong to.
2000-03-31	Include "lib/string.h" instead of <string.h>. It should give us bzero()	Martin Mares
	and other non-portable functions on all systems.
1999-10-29	Simplify handling of free chunks.	Martin Mares

1999-10-02	Don't forget to free large blocks.	Martin Mares

1999-03-29	Clarify resource dumps and include them in the main debugging dump.	Martin Mares

1999-03-29	Added lp_flush() which flushes contents of a linear pool, leaving all the	Martin Mares
	memory available for subsequent allocations from the same pool. Both flushing and re-using the memory costs just few instructions.
1998-12-06	Name cleanups as suggested by Pavel:	Martin Mares
	- cfg_strcpy() -> cfg_strdup() - mempool -> linpool, mp_* -> lp_* [to avoid confusion with memblock, mb_] Anyway, it might be better to stop ranting about names and do some real* work.
1998-05-24	Staticized some variables and functions.	Martin Mares

1998-05-03	BIRD library: The story continues.	Martin Mares
	Complete resource manages and IP address handling.
