objpool is a scalable implementation of high performance queue for
object allocation and reclamation, such as kretprobe instances.
With leveraging percpu ring-array to mitigate hot spots of memory
contention, it delivers near-linear scalability for high parallel
scenarios. The objpool is best suited for the following cases:
1) Memory allocation or reclamation are prohibited or too expensive
2) Consumers are of different priorities, such as irqs and threads
Limitations:
1) Maximum objects (capacity) is fixed after objpool creation
2) All pre-allocated objects are managed in percpu ring array,
which consumes more memory than linked lists
