Slab provides efficient memory allocation facilities to eliminate memory fragmentation caused by frequent allocations and deallocations.
test_struct* ptr1;
test_struct* ptr2;
test_struct* ptr3;
size_t slab_size = 2;
// allocate once
slab_t* my_slab = slab_create(slab_size, sizeof(test_struct));
// get storage without allocations
ptr1 = slab_get(my_slab);
ptr2 = slab_get(my_slab);
// ptr3 is NULL, since we ran out of slots
ptr3 = slab_get(my_slab);
// allocate a new block of slots
slab_reserve(my_slab, 10);
ptr3 = slab_get(my_slab);
// return storage
slab_put(my_slab, ptr1);
slab_put(my_slab, ptr2);
slab_put(my_slab, ptr3);
// free all
slab_free(my_slab);You can compile the library with -DLIBSLAB_AUTO to enable auto-reserving when storage is exhausted:
size_t slab_size = 2;
// allocate once
slab_t* my_slab = slab_create(slab_size, sizeof(test_struct));
// get storage without allocations
ptr1 = slab_get(my_slab);
ptr2 = slab_get(my_slab);
// automatic allocation
ptr3 = slab_get(my_slab);
// get storage without allocations
ptr4 = slab_get(my_slab);
