/**
 * @addtogroup Eina_Memory_Pool_Group Memory Pool
 *
 * @brief These functions provide memory pool management.
 *
 * Several mempool are available:
 *
 * @li @c buddy: It uses the
 * <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddy_memory_allocation">"buddy
 * allocator" algorithm</a> but the Eina implementation differs in the
 * sense that the chunk information is not stored on the chunk itself,
 * but on another memory area. This is useful for cases where the
 * memory to manage might be slower to access, or limited (like video
 * memory).
 * @li @c chained_pool: It is the default one. It allocates a big
 * chunk of memory with malloc() and split the result in chunks of the
 * requested size that are pushed inside a stack. When requested, it
 * takes this pointer from the stack to give them to whoever wants
 * them.
 * @li @c ememoa_fixed and @c ememoa_unknown: experimental allocators
 * which could be useful when a fixed amount of memory is needed.
 * @li @c fixed_bitmap: It allocates with malloc) 32* the requested
 * size and push the pool pointer in an rbtree. To find empty space in
 * a pool, it will just search for the first bit set in an int (32
 * bits). Then, when a pointer is freed, it will do a search inside
 * the rbtree.
 * @li @c pass_through: it just call malloc() and free(). It may be
 * faster on some computers than using our own allocators (like having
 * a huge L2 cache, over 4MB).
 * @li @c one_big: It call just one time malloc for the requested number
 * of items. Useful when you know in advance how many object of some
 * type will live during the life of the mempool.
