DESCRIPTION

       Default  implementations  for memkind operations which include a several useful methods that are not part
       of the MEMKIND_DEFAULT kind which is a fall through to the jemalloc implementation.

       memkind_default_create() implements the required start up for every kind. If a kind  does  not  point  to
       this  function  directly  for  its  ops.create() operation, then the function that it points to must call
       memkind_default_create() at its start.

       memkind_default_destroy() implements the required shutdown for every kind. If a kind does  not  point  to
       this  function  directly  for  its ops.destroy() operation, then the function that it points to must call
       memkind_default_destroy() at its end.

       memkind_default_malloc() is a direct call through the jemalloc's malloc().

       memkind_default_calloc() is a direct call through the jemalloc's calloc().

       memkind_default_posix_memalign() is a direct call through the jemalloc's posix_memalign().

       memkind_default_realloc() is a direct call through the jemalloc's realloc().

       memkind_default_free() is a direct call through the jemalloc's free().  Note  that  this  method  can  be
       called  on any pointer returned by a jemalloc allocation, and in particular, all of the arena allocations
       described in memkind_arena(3) can use this function for freeing.

       memkind_default_mmap() This calls the ops->get_mmap_flags() operations for the kind, or falls back on the
       default implementations if the function pointers are NULL.  The results of these calls are passed to  the
       mmap(2) call to allocate pages from the operating system.  The addr is the hint passed through to mmap(2)
       and  size  is  the  size  of  the  buffer  to  be allocated.  The return value is the allocated buffer or
       MAP_FAILED in the case of an error.

       memkind_default_mbind()  makes  calls  the  kind's  ops.get_mbind_nodemask()   and   ops.get_mbind_mode()
       operations to gather inputs and then calls the mbind(2) system call using the results along with and user
       input ptr and len.

       memkind_default_get_mmap_flags()  sets  flags  to  MAP_PRIVATE  |  MAP_ANONYMOUS.   See  mmap(2) for more
       information about these flags.

       memkind_default_get_mbind_mode() sets mode to MPOL_BIND.  See mbind(2) for more  information  about  this
       flag.

       memkind_default_malloc_usable_size() is a direct call through the jemalloc's malloc_usable_size().

       memkind_preferred_get_mbind_mode()  sets mode to MPOL_PREFERRED.  See mbind(2) for more information about
       this flag.

       memkind_interleave_get_mbind_mode() sets mode to MPOL_INTERLEAVE.   See  mbind(2)  for  more  information
       about this flag.

       memkind_nohugepage_madvise()  calls  madvise(2) with the MADV_NOHUGEPAGE advice.  See madvise(2) for more
       information about this option.

       memkind_posix_check_alignment() can be used to check the alignment value for memkind_posix_memalign()  to
       ensure  that  is  abides  by  the POSIX requirements: alignment must be a power of 2 at least as large as
       sizeof(void*).

       memkind_default_get_mbind_nodemask() wraps jemalloc's copy_bitmask_to_bitmask.  This function copies body
       of the bitmask structure into passed pointer.

       memkind_default_init_once() initializes heap manager.

       size_out_of_bounds() returns true if given size is out of bounds, otherwise will return false.
