/*
 * The afs_atomlist abstract data type is for efficiently allocating
 * space for small structures.
 *
 * The atoms in an afs_atomlist are allocated in blocks.  The blocks
 * are chained together so that they can be freed when the afs_atomlist
 * is destroyed.  When a new block is allocated, its atoms are chained
 * together and added to the free list of atoms.
 *
 * If the requested atom size is smaller than the size of a pointer,
 * afs_atomlist_create() silently increases the atom size.  If
 * the atom size would result in incorrectly aligned pointers,
 * afs_atomlist_create() silently increases the atom size as necessary.
 *
 * A block of atoms is organized as follows.
 *
 * ---------------------------------------------------------------
 * | atom | atom | atom | ... | atom | nextblock | wasted space* |
 * ---------------------------------------------------------------
 * \____ atoms_per_block atoms ______/
 *
 * (*) A block may or may not contain wasted space at the end.  The
 * amount of wasted space depends on the size of a block, the size of an
 * atom, and the size of the pointer to the next block.  For instance,
 * if a block is 4096 bytes, an atom is 12 bytes, and a pointer is 4
 * bytes, there is no wasted space in a block.
 *
 * The pointer to the next block is stored AFTER all the atoms in the
 * block.  Here's why.
 *
 * If we put the pointer to the next block before the atoms,
 * followed immediately by the atoms, we would be assuming that the
 * atoms could be aligned on a pointer boundary.
 *
 * If we tried to solve the alignment problem by allocating an entire
 * atom for the pointer to the next block, we might waste space
 * gratuitously.  Say a block is 4096 bytes, an atom is 24 bytes, and a
 * pointer is 8 bytes.  In this case a block can hold 170 atoms, with 16
 * bytes left over.  This isn't enough space for another atom, but it is
 * enough space for the pointer to the next block.  There is no need to
 * use one of the atoms to store the pointer to the next block.
 *
 * So, we store the pointer to the next block after the end of the atoms
 * in the block.  In the worst case, the block size is an exact multiple
 * of the atom size, and we waste an entire atom to store the pointer to
 * the next block.  But we hope it is more typical that there is enough
 * extra space after the atoms to store the pointer to the next block.
 *
 * A more sophisticated scheme would keep the pointers to the atom
 * blocks in a separate list of blocks.  It would eliminate the
 * fragmentation of the atom blocks in the case where the block size
 * is a multiple of the atom size.  However, it is more complicated to
 * understand and to implement, so I chose not to do it at this time.
 * If fragmentation turns out to be a serious enough issue, we can
 * change the afs_atomlist implementation without affecting its users.
