9.2: Background

Memorypool management functions manage memorypools and allocate memory blocks. There are two types of memorypool: fixed-size memorypools and variable-size memorypools. Both are considered separate objects and require different system calls for manipulation. While the size of memory blocks allocated from fixed-size memorypools are all fixed, blocks of any size may be specified when allocating memory blocks from variable-size memorypools.
