* palloc.h
|
|
* POSTGRES memory allocator definitions.
|
|
*
|
|
* This file contains the basic memory allocation interface that is
|
|
* needed by almost every backend module. It is included directly by
|
|
* postgres.h, so the definitions here are automatically available
|
|
* everywhere. Keep it lean!
|
|
*
|
|
* Memory allocation occurs within "contexts". Every chunk obtained from
|
|
* palloc()/MemoryContextAlloc() is allocated within a specific context.
|
|
* The entire contents of a context can be freed easily and quickly by
|
|
* resetting or deleting the context --- this is both faster and less
|
|
* prone to memory-leakage bugs than releasing chunks individually.
|
|
* We organize contexts into context trees to allow fine-grain control
|
|
* over chunk lifetime while preserving the certainty that we will free
|
|
* everything that should be freed. See utils/mmgr/README for more info.
