Stefan Kalkowski	746011ee28	blk_cache: fix deadlock in allocator hierarchy ... This commit generalizes the bit array in 'base/util/bit_array.h', so that it can be used in a statically, when the array size is known at compile time, or dynamically. It uses the dynamic approach of the bit array for a more generalized version of the packet allocator, formerly only used by NIC session clients. The more generic packet allocator is used by the block cache to circumvent the allocation deadlock described in issue #1059. Fixes #1059	2014-02-25 14:58:06 +01:00

Norman Feske	0dbb5e1696	Propagate 'Range_allocator::alloc_aligned' errors ... This patch reflects eventual allocation errors in a more specific way to the caller of 'alloc_aligned', in particular out-of-metadata and out-of-memory are considered as different conditions. Related to issue #526.	2012-11-28 22:51:09 +01:00
Sebastian Sumpf	18d005264e	Nic: Added 'Nic::Packet_allocator' ... This is a bitmap-range allocator that can be used in packet streams.	2012-08-07 22:22:06 +02:00
