Great, thanks.
Will try to have a look in next few days.
With these functions in place, can we produce a unit-test that
will use together these new mempool functions and compress API?
Something like:
- allocate mempool
- deduce base_pointer for it
- main_loop_start:
producer(s): mempool_get(); <fill mbuf with some values>; ring_enqueue();
consumer(s): ring_dequeue(); <read_and_check_mbuf_data>; mempool_put();
- main_loop_end
- free mempool

Yep, agree, it sounds like a subject for a separate patch series.
