Macros
#define	wmem_new(allocator, type)
	Allocate memory sufficient to hold one object of the given type.
#define	wmem_safe_mult_type_size(type, num)
	Overflow-safe multiplication of the size of a type by a number of items.
#define	wmem_alloc_array(allocator, type, num)
	Allocate memory sufficient to hold n objects of the given type.
#define	wmem_new0(allocator, type)
	Allocate memory sufficient to hold one object of the given type. Initializes the allocated memory with zeroes.
#define	wmem_alloc0_array(allocator, type, num)
	Allocate memory sufficient to hold n objects of the given type. Initializes the allocated memory with zeroes.

Functions
WS_WARN_UNUSED WS_DLL_PUBLIC void *	wmem_alloc (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, const size_t size) G_GNUC_MALLOC G_GNUC_ALLOC_SIZE(2)
	Allocate the requested amount of memory in the given pool.
WS_WARN_UNUSED WS_DLL_PUBLIC void *	wmem_alloc0 (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, const size_t size) G_GNUC_MALLOC G_GNUC_ALLOC_SIZE(2)
	Allocate the requested amount of memory in the given pool. Initializes the allocated memory with zeroes.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_free (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, void *ptr)

WS_WARN_UNUSED WS_DLL_PUBLIC void *	wmem_realloc (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, void *ptr, const size_t size) G_GNUC_ALLOC_SIZE(3)
	Resizes a block of memory, potentially moving it if resizing it in place is not possible.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_free_all (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
	Frees all the memory allocated in a pool.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_gc (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
	Triggers a garbage-collection in the allocator.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_destroy_allocator (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
	Destroy the given allocator, freeing all memory allocated in it.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC wmem_allocator_t *	wmem_allocator_new (const wmem_allocator_type_t type)
	Create a new allocator of the given type.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_init (void)
	Initialize the wmem subsystem.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_cleanup (void)
	Teardown the wmem subsystem.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_enter_scope (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
	Mark an allocator as entering a scoped memory region.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void	wmem_leave_scope (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
	Exit a scoped memory region and free all scoped allocations.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC bool	wmem_in_scope (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
	Check whether an allocator is currently in a scoped region.
