4  * alloc supplies three ingredients to the test framework that are all
5  * related to the support of dynamic memory allocation.
6  *
7  * The first is a set of alloc function wrappers for malloc and its
8  * friends. Using wrappers allows test code and common code to use the
9  * same interface for memory allocation at all stages, even though the
10  * implementations may change with the stage, e.g. pre/post paging.
11  *
12  * The second is a set of implementations for the alloc function
13  * interfaces. These implementations are named early_*, as they can be
14  * used almost immediately by the test framework.
15  *
16  * The third is a very simple physical memory allocator, which the
17  * early_* alloc functions build on.
