Bryan Call commented on TS-2581: -------------------------------- [~psudaemon] If this wont go in the next week, please move it to the 5.1 release. > Add / modify APIs to allow easy freelist allocation of iobuffer's from C/C++ > plugins > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: TS-2581 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2581 > Project: Traffic Server > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: TS API > Reporter: Leif Hedstrom > Assignee: Phil Sorber > Labels: api-addition > Fix For: 5.0.0 > > > This would allow for efficient allocations in plugins, such that they can do > an in-place new() on a chunk of memory (iobuffer). > The API / features should make it easy and possible to asks for an iobuffer > of at least size <x>. It can return a bigger one, at which point, you'd waste > some. But this allows us to reuse / repurpose the existing iobuffer > allocation. > Phil points out that there are existing iobuffer allocation APIs, so maybe > something in conjunction with that is appropriate. I would like for this to > be easy on the plugin user though, such that it's as simple as "malloc/free" > chains. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
