Version History
---------------
-v2.4.4 (October 13 2008)
* Corrected minor syntactic bug on statistic gathering code.
Reported by Tim Cussins and P. Mantegazza.
-v2.4.3 (July 30 2008)
* Minor fixes to compile with the greenhills compiler.
Reported by "Kaya, Sinan SEA" <sinan.kaya@siemens.com>
* Small change in the license in order to include TLSF in the RTEMS
project.
-v2.4.2 (May 16 2008) (Herman ten Brugge)
* Memory usage statistics added again, with cleaner and more compacted
code.
-v2.4.1 (April 30 2008)
* Fixed a bug in the tlsf_realloc function: init the pool automatically
on the first call.
Reported by: Alejandro Mery <amery@geeks.cl>
-v2.4 (Feb 19 2008)
* "rtl_*" functions renamed to "tlsf_*".
* Added the add_new_area function to insert new memory areas to an
existing memory pool.
* A single TLSF pool can manage non-contiguous memory areas.
* Support for mmap and sbrk added.
* The init_memory_pool is not longer needed when used on a system
with mmap or sbrk.
* Removed the get_used_size counting.The same functionality can be
implemented outside the TLSF code.
-v2.3.2 (Sep 27 2007)
* Minor cosmetic code improvements.
-v2.3.1 (Jul 30 2007)
* Fixed some minor bugs in the version 2.3. Herman ten Brugge
<hermantenbrugge@home.nl>
-v2.3 (Jul 28 2007) Released a new version with all the contributions
received from Herman ten Brugge <hermantenbrugge@home.nl>
(This is his summary of changes in the TLSF's code):
* Add 64 bit support. It now runs on x86_64 and solaris64.
* I also tested this on vxworks/32 and solaris/32 and i386/32
processors.
* Remove assembly code. I could not measure any performance difference
on my core2 processor. This also makes the code more portable.
* Moved defines/typedefs from tlsf.h to tlsf.c
* Changed MIN_BLOCK_SIZE to sizeof (free_ptr_t) and BHDR_OVERHEAD to
(sizeof (bhdr_t) - MIN_BLOCK_SIZE). This does not change the fact
that the minumum size is still sizeof (bhdr_t).
* Changed all C++ comment style to C style. (// -> /* ... *./)
* Used ls_bit instead of ffs and ms_bit instead of fls. I did this to
avoid confusion with the standard ffs function which returns
different values.
* Created set_bit/clear_bit fuctions because they are not present
on x86_64.
* Added locking support + extra file target.h to show how to use it.
* Added get_used_size function
* Added rtl_realloc and rtl_calloc function
* Implemented realloc clever support.
* Added some test code in the example directory.
-- Thank you very much for your help Herman!
-v2.2.1 (Oct 23 2006)
* Support for ARMv5 implemented by Adam Scislowicz
<proteuskor@gmail.com>. Thank you for your contribution.
- v2.2.0 (Jun 30 2006) Miguel Masmano & Ismael Ripoll.
* Blocks smaller than 128 bytes are stored on a single
segregated list. The already existing bits maps and data
structures are used.
* Minor code speed-up improvements.
* Worst case response time both on malloc and free improved.
* External fragmantation also improved!.
* Segragared lists are AGAIN sorted by LIFO order. Version
2.1b was proven to be no better than 2.1.
- v2.1b: Allocation policy has been always a LIFO Good-Fit, that
is, between several free blocks in the same range, TLSF will
always allocate the most recently released. In this version of
TLSF, we have implemented a FIFO Good-Fit. However,
fragmentation doesn't seems to be altered so is it worth it?.
- v2.1: Realloc and calloc included again in TLSF 2.0.
- v2.0: In this version, TLSF has been programmed from scratch.
Now the allocator is provided as an unique file. Realloc and
calloc are not longer implemented.
- v1.4: Created the section "Version History". Studied real
behaviour of actual applications (regular applications tend
to require small memory blocks (less than 16 bytes) whereas
TLSF is optimised to be used with blocks larger than 16
bytes: Added special lists to deal with blocks smaller than
16 bytes.
- v1.3: Change of concept, now the main TLSF structure is created
inside of the beginning of the block instead of being an
static structure, allowing multiple TLSFs working at the
same time. Now, TLSF uses specific processor instructions to
deal with bitmaps. TLSF sanity functions added to find TLSF
overflows. The TLSF code will not be RTLinux-oriented any
more.
- v1.1 ... v1.2: Many little bugs fixed, code cleaned and splitted
in several files because of cosmetic requirements.
Starting from TLSF v1.1, MaRTE OS
(http://marte.unican.es) uses the TLSF allocator
as its default memory allocator.
- v0.1 ... v1.0: First implementations were created for testing and
research purposes. Basically TLSF is implemented to
be used by RTLinux-GPL (www.rtlinux-gpl.org), so
it is RTLinux-oriented.
