Use buddy system to allocate blocks in libmm

Open eikendev opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

We currently use a worst-fit model. If we encounter problems regarding the performance of allocation, we might want to consider switching to a buddy system.

More information on how this works algorithmically can be found in "Operating Systems - Internals and Design Principles" by William Stallings, page 317ff in the seventh edition.
