--  This package provides the low level memory allocation/deallocation

--  mechanisms used by GNAT.

--  To provide an alternate implementation, simply recompile the modified

--  body of this package with gnatmake -u -a -g s-memory.adb and make sure

--  that the ali and object files for this unit are found in the object

--  search path.

--  This unit may be used directly from an application program by providing

--  an appropriate WITH, and the interface can be expected to remain stable.

pragma Compiler_Unit;

package System.Memory is

   pragma Elaborate_Body;

   type size_t is mod 2 ** Standard'Address_Size;

   --  Note: the reason we redefine this here instead of using the

   --  definition in Interfaces.C is that we do not want to drag in

   --  all of Interfaces.C just because System.Memory is used.

   function Alloc (Size : size_t) return System.Address;

   --  This is the low level allocation routine. Given a size in storage

   --  units, it returns the address of a maximally aligned block of

   --  memory. The implementation of this routine is guaranteed to be

   --  task safe, and also aborts are deferred if necessary.

   --

   --  If size_t is set to size_t'Last on entry, then a Storage_Error

   --  exception is raised with a message "object too large".

   --

   --  If size_t is set to zero on entry, then a minimal (but non-zero)

   --  size block is allocated.

   --

   --  Note: this is roughly equivalent to the standard C malloc call

   --  with the additional semantics as described above.

   procedure Free (Ptr : System.Address);

   --  This is the low level free routine. It frees a block previously

   --  allocated with a call to Alloc. As in the case of Alloc, this

   --  call is guaranteed task safe, and aborts are deferred.

   --

   --  Note: this is roughly equivalent to the standard C free call

   --  with the additional semantics as described above.

   function Realloc

     (Ptr  : System.Address;

      Size : size_t) return System.Address;

   --  This is the low level reallocation routine. It takes an existing

   --  block address returned by a previous call to Alloc or Realloc,

   --  and reallocates the block. The size can either be increased or

   --  decreased. If possible the reallocation is done in place, so that

   --  the returned result is the same as the value of Ptr on entry.

   --  However, it may be necessary to relocate the block to another

   --  address, in which case the information is copied to the new

   --  block, and the old block is freed. The implementation of this

   --  routine is guaranteed to be task safe, and also aborts are

   --  deferred as necessary.

   --

   --  If size_t is set to size_t'Last on entry, then a Storage_Error

   --  exception is raised with a message "object too large".

   --

   --  If size_t is set to zero on entry, then a minimal (but non-zero)

   --  size block is allocated.

   --

   --  Note: this is roughly equivalent to the standard C realloc call

   --  with the additional semantics as described above.
