This test harness ensures consistent non-blocking semantics and
validates that we have solved the toctou condition.
The __global_context_for_test is a bit of a hack to fuse together the
test supplied proc and the executing logic in packaage chan.
`core:math/big` has been verified against Python's big integer implementation long enough.
Turn it into a regular regression test using the `core:testing` framework, testing against
a generated corpus of test vectors.
This should result in a clearer idea of how fast the procedures are
running, as the loop can run without going back and forth to the system
for the time.
In `.Multiline` mode:
- `^` is now defined to assert the start of the string or that a "\n" or
"\r" rune was parsed on last VM dispatch.
- `$` is now defined to consume a newline sequence of "\n", "\r", or
"\r\n" or to assert the end of the string.
This implementation doesn't allow for out-of-band allocations to be passed through, as it's not designed to
track those. Nor is it able to signal those allocations then need to be freed on the backing allocator,
as opposed to regular allocations handled for you when you `destroy` the TLSF instance.
So if we're asked for more than we're configured to grow by, we can fail with an OOM error early, without adding a new pool.
New features:
- If TLSF can't service an allocation made on it, and it's initialized with `new_pool_size` > 0, it will ask the backing allocator for additional memory.
- `estimate_pool_size` can tell you what size your initial (and `new_pool_size`) ought to be if you want to make `count` allocations of `size` and `alignment`, or in its other form, how much backing memory is needed for `count` allocations of `type` and its corresponding size and alignment.
