- * @page memory_management OpenVPN's memory management strategies
- *
- * This section describes several implementation details relating to
- * OpenVPN's memory management strategies.
- *
- * During operation, the OpenVPN process performs all kinds of operations
- * on blocks of data.  Receiving packets, encrypting content, prepending
- * headers, etc.  To make the programmer's job easier and to decrease the
- * likelihood of memory-related bugs, OpenVPN uses its own memory %buffer
- * library and garbage collection facilities.  These are described in
- * brief here.
- *
- * @section memory_management_buffer The buffer structure
- *
- * The \c buffer structure is a wrapper around a block of dynamically
- * allocated memory which keeps track of the block's capacity \c
- * buffer.capacity and location in memory \c buffer.data.  This structure
- * supports efficient prepending and appending within the allocated memory
- * through the use of offset \c buffer.offset and length \c buffer.len
- * fields.  See the \c buffer documentation for more details on the
- * structure itself.
- *
- * OpenVPN's %buffer library, implemented in the \c buffer.h and \c
- * buffer.c files, contains many utility functions for working with \c
- * buffer structures.  These functions facilitate common operations, such
- * as allocating, freeing, reading and writing to \c buffer structures,
- * and even offer several more advanced operations, such as string
- * matching and creating sub-buffers.
- *
- * Not only do these utility functions make working with \c buffer
- * structures easy, they also perform extensive error checking.  Each
- * function, where necessary, checks whether enough space is available
- * before performing its actions.  This minimizes the chance of bugs
- * leading to %buffer overflows and other vulnerabilities.
- *
- * @section memory_management_frame The frame structure
- *
- * The \c frame structure keeps track of the maximum allowed packet
- * geometries of a network connection.
- *
- * It is used, for example, to determine the size of \c buffer structures
- * in which to store data channel packets.  This is done by having each
- * data channel processing module register the maximum amount of extra
- * space it will need for header prepending and content expansion in the
- * \c frame structure. Once these parameters are known, \c buffer
- * structures can be allocated, based on the \c frame parameters, so that
- * they are large enough to allow efficient prepending of headers and
- * processing of content.
- *
- * @section memory_management_garbage Garbage collection
- *
- * OpenVPN has many sizable functions which perform various actions
- * depending on their %context.  This makes it difficult to know in advance
- * exactly how much memory must be allocated.  The garbage collection
- * facilities are used to keep track of dynamic allocations, thereby
- * allowing easy collective freeing of the allocated memory.
- *
- * The garbage collection system is implemented by the \c gc_arena and \c
- * gc_entry structures.  The arena represents a garbage collecting unit,
- * and contains a linked list of entries.  Each entry represents one block
- * of dynamically allocated memory.
- *
- * The garbage collection system also contains various utility functions
- * for working with the garbage collection structures.  These include
- * functions for initializing new arenas, allocating memory of a given
- * size and registering the allocation in an arena, and freeing all the
- * allocated memory associated with an arena.
