Nginx内存池（三）——大块内存分配分配释放

分配函数ngx_palloc_large

static void *
ngx_palloc_large(ngx_pool_t *pool, size_t size)
{
    void              *p;
    ngx_uint_t         n;
    ngx_pool_large_t  *large;

    p = ngx_alloc(size, pool->log); // malloc
    if (p == NULL) {
        return NULL;
    }

    n = 0;
    // 复用已释放空间内存头信息 M1
    for (large = pool->large; large; large = large->next) {
        if (large->alloc == NULL) {
            large->alloc = p;
            return p;
        }

        if (n++ > 3) {
            break;
        }
    }
    // 大块内存的头信息也是存在小块内存池中！！
    large = ngx_palloc_small(pool, sizeof(ngx_pool_large_t), 1);
    if (large == NULL) {
        ngx_free(p);
        return NULL;
    }

    // 头插
    large->alloc = p;
    large->next = pool->large;
    pool->large = large;

    return p;
}

整体内存池图示：

注意：其中大块内存的块头信息也是存放在小块内存池中：

 large = ngx_palloc_small(pool, sizeof(ngx_pool_large_t), 1);

图示如下：

大块内存释放函数ngx_pfree

ngx_int_t
ngx_pfree(ngx_pool_t *pool, void *p)
{
    ngx_pool_large_t  *l;

    for (l = pool->large; l; l = l->next) {
        if (p == l->alloc) {
            ngx_log_debug1(NGX_LOG_DEBUG_ALLOC, pool->log, 0,
                           "free: %p", l->alloc);
            ngx_free(l->alloc); // free
            l->alloc = NULL; // 

            return NGX_OK;
        }
    }

    return NGX_DECLINED;
}

注意到块头的空间并没有释放只是将alloc域置空，到后面再创建大块内存时可以复用,可查看分配函数中M1代码处
