Linux内核Slab内存缓冲区管理器

Linux Kernel Slab Memory Buffer Manager

Linux是开源操作系统,内核运行时,会使用很多数据结构对象,即内核对象。如何高效地管理这些对象的创建、使用和回收,需一整套完善的管理机制。该文介绍了Slab内存缓冲区管理器的原理,以及Linux怎样使用Slab管理器管理内核中各种各样的内核对象。

The source codes of Linux OS are open. When Linux kernel is running, it uses a lot of structural objects, called kernel objects. How to manage the creation, usage and recycle of these objects requires a perfect management mechanism. This paper discusses the theory of Slab memory buffer manager and how to use Slab manager to manage all kinds of kernel objects in Linux kernel.
