Mircea Trofin 3d046986f0 Revert "Revert "[wasm] A simple allocator datastructure for off-the heap""
This reverts commit ee5c31f335.

Reason for revert: Fixed compiler failure

Original change's description:
> Revert "[wasm] A simple allocator datastructure for off-the heap"
> 
> This reverts commit 110d9ab005.
> 
> Reason for revert: https://build.chromium.org/p/client.v8/builders/V8%20Linux64%20-%20debug%20builder/builds/26607
> 
> Surprising we're seeing a failure on Linux 64 *after* CQ. Is the compiler there different?

> Original change's description:
> > [wasm] A simple allocator datastructure for off-the heap
> > 
> > We'll use this allocator in a follow-up CL to:
> > - allocate speculative sizes of memory for a module that's being
> > compiled (e.g. 2*size of wasm code).
> > - each module will own such a sub-pool, and then use it to allocate
> > contiguous chunks of memory for code.
> > 
> > The underlying assumptions for the chosen allocation strategy is that:
> > - the allocation granularity for pools is 1 page, so that no one page
> > is owned by more than one wasm module
> > - typical pool sizes (given module sizes) are multiple pages.
> > - modules and module instances are typically few and long lived. Typically,
> > we expect one module and one instance. 
> > 
> > This means we shouldn't expect fragmentations that lead to code being
> > non-allocatable, or prohibitively many ranges.
> > 
> > The data structure just manages ranges of addresses. Virtual memory management
> > will be separate, as part of the responsibility of a "WasmHeap"
> > that will be introduced in the future. So will concurrency control.

V8 JavaScript Engine

V8 is Google's open source JavaScript engine.

V8 implements ECMAScript as specified in ECMA-262.

V8 is written in C++ and is used in Google Chrome, the open source browser from Google.

V8 can run standalone, or can be embedded into any C++ application.

V8 Project page: https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

    fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

    git pull origin
    gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
