Member Function Documentation

alloc_sys()

void * nvwa::mem_pool_base::alloc_sys ( size_t  size )

static

Allocates memory from the run-time system.

Parameters

size	size of the memory to allocate in bytes

Returns

pointer to allocated memory block if successful; or null if memory allocation fails

dealloc_sys()

void nvwa::mem_pool_base::dealloc_sys ( void *  ptr )

static

Frees memory and returns it to the run-time system.

Parameters

ptr	pointer to the memory block previously allocated

recycle()

void nvwa::mem_pool_base::recycle ( )

pure virtual

Recycles unused memory from memory pools.

It is an interface and needs to be implemented in subclasses.

Implemented in nvwa::static_mem_pool< _Sz, _Gid >.
