; Memory management for slab structures.

; The allocator meets special requirements:

; * memory blocks are properly aligned

; * memory blocks do not cross page boundary

; The allocator manages fixed-size blocks.

; Thus, the specific allocator works as follows:

; allocate one page, split into blocks, maintain the single-linked

; list of all free blocks in each page.

; Note: size must be a multiple of required alignment.

; Data for one pool: dd pointer to the first page, MUTEX lock.

; Allocator for fixed-size blocks: allocate a block.

; [ebx-4] = pointer to the first page, ebx = pointer to MUTEX structure.

.size   dd      ?
