DEFINITION MODULE LongSysStorage ;

(*  Provides dynamic allocation for the system components.
    This allows the application to use the traditional Storage module
    which can be handled differently.
    ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE will call M2Diagnostic to adjust the
    global tracking of the application heap.  *)

FROM SYSTEM IMPORT ADDRESS ;


(*
   ALLOCATE - attempt to allocate memory from the heap.
              NIL is returned in, a, if ALLOCATE fails.
*)

PROCEDURE ALLOCATE (VAR a: ADDRESS ; size: LONGCARD) ;


(*
   DEALLOCATE - return, size, bytes to the heap.
                The variable, a, is set to NIL.
*)

PROCEDURE DEALLOCATE (VAR a: ADDRESS ; size: LONGCARD) ;


(*
   REALLOCATE - attempts to reallocate storage. The address,
                a, should either be NIL in which case ALLOCATE
                is called, or alternatively it should have already
                been initialized by ALLOCATE. The allocated storage
                is resized accordingly.
                Note that this procedure does not adjust the
                M2Diagnostic.TotalHeap it is expected that the caller
                must track the reallocation differences and call
                M2Diagnostic.TotalHeapIncr or M2Diagnostic.TotalHeapDecr
                as appropriate.
*)

PROCEDURE REALLOCATE (VAR a: ADDRESS; size: LONGCARD) ;


(*
   Available - returns TRUE if, size, bytes can be allocated.
*)

PROCEDURE Available (size: LONGCARD) : BOOLEAN;


(*
   Init - initializes the heap.
          This does nothing on a GNU/Linux system.
          But it remains here since it might be used in an
          embedded system.
*)
