Module mmtk::util::metadata::side_metadata::helpers

Enums

• FindMetaBitResult
  The result type for find meta bits functions.

Functions

• addr_rshift 🔒
• address_to_contiguous_meta_address 🔒
  Performs address translation in contiguous metadata spaces (e.g. global and policy-specific in 64-bits, and global in 32-bits)
• address_to_meta_address 🔒
  Performs the translation of data address (data_addr) to metadata address for the specified metadata (metadata_spec).
• align_metadata_address 🔒
  Align an pair of a metadata address and a metadata bit offset to the start of this metadata value. For example, when the metadata is 4 bits, it should only start at bit 0 or bit 4. When the metadata is 16 bits, it should only start at bit 0, and its metadata address should be aligned to 2 bytes. This is important, as contiguous_meta_address_to_address can only convert the start address of metadata to the data address.
• contiguous_meta_address_to_address 🔒
  Performs reverse address translation from contiguous metadata bits to data addresses. The input address and bit shift should be aligned.
• find_last_non_zero_bit 🔒
• find_last_non_zero_bit_in_metadata_bits
• find_last_non_zero_bit_in_metadata_bytes
• meta_byte_lshift 🔒
• meta_byte_mask 🔒
• metadata_address_range_size 🔒
• scan_non_zero_bits_in_metadata_bits
• scan_non_zero_bits_in_metadata_bytes
• scan_non_zero_bits_in_metadata_word 🔒
• try_mmap_contiguous_metadata_space 🔒
  Tries to mmap the metadata space (spec) for the specified data address range (start and size). Setting no_reserve to true means the function will only map address range, without reserving swap-space/physical memory. Returns the size in bytes that gets mmapped in the function if success.
