Bug#944371: ITP: vmem -- malloc-like volatile allocations of persistent memory



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Adam Borowski <kilobyte@angband.pl>

* Package name    : vmem
  Version         : 1.8-rc1
  Upstream Author : Intel
* URL             : http://pmem.io/vmem/
* License         : BSD
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : malloc-like volatile allocations of persistent memory

[These libraries are already included in src:pmdk; they've been split out to
a separate project as of upcoming version 1.8]

There are two libraries here:
* libvmem -- vmem_malloc() allocates from slower plentiful pmem while ordinary
    malloc() gives fast but small DRAM
* libvmmalloc -- LD_PRELOADable redirection of all malloc()s
