/******************************************************************

* Assume that ACE_MALLOC_ALIGN is the number of bytes of the alignment
  of the platform. Usually, this will be 4 on most platforms.  Some
  platforms require this to be 8.  In any case, this macro should
  always be a 2's power.

* Malloc_Header structure.

  Notice that sizeof (ACE_Malloc_Header) must be multiple of
  ACE_MALLOC_ALIGN

   +-----------------------------------------+
   |MALLOC_HEADER_PTR *next_block_;          |
   |   // Points to next free Malloc_Header  |
   |   // in this chain.                     |
   +-----------------------------------------+
   |size_t size_;                            |
   |   // Size of buffer associate with      |
   |   // this Malloc_Header                 |
   }   // The size is in number of           |
   |   // Malloc_Header (including this one.)|
   +-----------------------------------------+
   |char paddings_[ACE_MALLOC_PADDING_SIZE]; |
   |   // Padding array.  This purpose  |
   |   // of this padding array is to adjust |
   |   // the sizeof (Malloc_Header) to be   |
   |   // multiple of ACE_MALLOC_ALIGN.      |
   +-----------------------------------------+

* Name_Node

  ACE_Malloc allows searching thru it's allocated buffer using names.
  Name_Node is an internal data structure that ACE_Malloc used to
  maintain a linked list that manages this (name, buffer) mappings.

   +-----------------------------------------+
   |char *name_;                             |
   |   // Points to a dynamically allocated  |
   |   // char buffer that holds the name    |
   |   // of this node.  This buffer is      |
   |   // allocated from using this          |
   |   // ACE_MALLOC instance that owns this |
   |   // Name_Node (so it always points to  |
   |   // a buffer owned by its Malloc.      |
   +-----------------------------------------+
   |char *pointer_;                          |
   |   // Points to the content that <name_> |
   |   // referring to.  Like <name_>, the   |
   |   // context always resides within the  |
   |   // Malloc.                            |
   +-----------------------------------------+
   |NAME_NODE_PTR next_;                     |
   +-----------------------------------------+
   |NAME_NODE_PTR prev_;                     |
   |   // Name Node linked list pointers.    |
   +-----------------------------------------+


* Control_Block

  Only the first ACE_Malloc instance that uses
  the shared memory will initialize the control block because all
  later instances are supposed to share the memory with the first
  instance.  The following diagram shows the initial value of a
  Control_Block.

   +-----------------------------------------+
   |NAME_NODE_PTR name_head_;                |<---- NULL
   |   // Entry point for double-linked list.|
   |   // Initialized to NULL pointer to     |
   |   // indicate an empty list.            |
   +-----------------------------------------+
   |MALLOC_HEADER_PTR freep_;                |
   |   // Pointer to last un-allocated       |
   |   // malloc_header linked list.         |---+
   +-----------------------------------------+   |
   |char lock_name_[MAXNAMELEN];             |   |
   |   // The global name of the lock.       |   |
   +-----------------------------------------+   |
   |Malloc_Stats malloc_stats_;              |   |
   |   // (Optional statistic information.   |   |
   |   //  Do not exist if                   |   |
   |   //  ACE_HAS_MALLOC_STATS is not       |   |
   |   //  defined.                          |   |
   +-----------------------------------------+   |
   |char align_[CONTROL_BLOCK_ALIGN_BYTES];  |   |
   |   //                                    |   |
   +-----------------------------------------+   |
   |Malloc_Header base_;                     |<--+
   |  // Dummy node used to anchor the       |
   |  // freelist.                           |<--+
   |                           +-------------+   |
   |                           |next_        |---+
   |                           +-------------+
   |                           |size_        |----> 0
   +-----------------------------------------+

  The first ACE_Malloc initializes the control block by allocating a
  memory block of size equal to or greater than sizeof (control block)
  (rounded to the closest <rounded_bytes>) and invokes the placement
  new's on to initialize the control block and its internal
  pointers/data structures.  If the extra memory (memory after the
  <base_> in the following diagram) is enough to create a
  Malloc_Header chain, one is created and added to the freelist list.
  That is, if the memory size returned by init_acquire() is greater
  than the sizeof Control_Block, the control block is initialized to
  the following diagram:

   |name_head_;                          |
