The Part of Memory Base Libraries

Introduction

The part of Memory base libraries belongs to the subsystem named Utils Subsystem. It provides the system library for upper-layer services to operate memory, ensuring the stability of upper-layer services.

Memory Base Libraries

Memory base libraries is a component of the system library that integrates memory operations and manages them in a unified manner.

libdmabufheap system library

The memory system library provides interfaces for the multimedia service to allocate and share shared memory. By allocating and sharing memory between hardware devices and user space, zero-copy memory between devices and processes is implemented to improve execution efficiency.

libmeminfo system library (planning)

It provides interfaces for memory usage queries. It is used for memory footprint query, low memory killing and other scenarios.

libmemleak system library (planning)

It cooperates with malloc_debug to detect memory leaks of native heap.

libpurgeable system library (planning)

It provides management interfaces for discardable-type memory.

libspeculative system library (planning)

It provides management interfaces for speculative-type memory. It is mainly used by system services for data pre-loading.
