/**
* talloc - allocate dynamic memory for a type
* @ctx: context to be parent of this allocation, or NULL.
* @type: the type to be allocated.
*
* The talloc() macro is the core of the talloc library. It takes a memory
* context and a type, and returns a pointer to a new area of memory of the
* given type.
*
* The returned pointer is itself a talloc context, so you can use it as the
* context argument to more calls to talloc if you wish.
*
* The returned pointer is a "child" of @ctx. This means that if you
* talloc_free() @ctx then the new child disappears as well. Alternatively you
* can free just the child.
*
* @ctx can be NULL, in which case a new top level context is created.
*
* Example:
* unsigned int *a, *b;
* a = talloc(NULL, unsigned int);
* b = talloc(a, unsigned int);
*
* See Also:
* talloc_zero, talloc_array, talloc_steal, talloc_free.

/**
* talloc_free - free talloc'ed memory and its children
* @ptr: the talloced pointer to free
*
* The talloc_free() function frees a piece of talloc memory, and all its
* children. You can call talloc_free() on any pointer returned by talloc().
*
* The return value of talloc_free() indicates success or failure, with 0
* returned for success and -1 for failure. The only possible failure condition
* is if the pointer had a destructor attached to it and the destructor
* returned -1. See talloc_set_destructor() for details on destructors.
*
* If this pointer has an additional parent when talloc_free() is called then
* the memory is not actually released, but instead the most recently
* established parent is destroyed. See talloc_reference() for details on
* establishing additional parents.
*
* For more control on which parent is removed, see talloc_unlink().
*
* talloc_free() operates recursively on its children.
*
* Example:
* unsigned int *a, *b;
* a = talloc(NULL, unsigned int);
* b = talloc(a, unsigned int);
* // Frees a and b

/**
* talloc_set_destructor: set a destructor for when this pointer is freed
* @ptr: the talloc pointer to set the destructor on
* @destructor: the function to be called
*
* The function talloc_set_destructor() sets the "destructor" for the pointer
* @ptr. A destructor is a function that is called when the memory used by a
* pointer is about to be released. The destructor receives the pointer as an
* argument, and should return 0 for success and -1 for failure.
*
* The destructor can do anything it wants to, including freeing other pieces
* of memory. A common use for destructors is to clean up operating system
* resources (such as open file descriptors) contained in the structure the
* destructor is placed on.
*
* You can only place one destructor on a pointer. If you need more than one
* destructor then you can create a zero-length child of the pointer and place
* an additional destructor on that.
*
* To remove a destructor call talloc_set_destructor() with NULL for the
* destructor.
*
* If your destructor attempts to talloc_free() the pointer that it is the
* destructor for then talloc_free() will return -1 and the free will be
* ignored. This would be a pointless operation anyway, as the destructor is
* only called when the memory is just about to go away.
*
* Example:
* static int destroy_fd(int *fd)
* {
* close(*fd);
* return 0;
* }
*
* int *open_file(const char *filename)
* {
* int *fd = talloc(NULL, int);
* *fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY);
* if (*fd < 0) {
* talloc_free(fd);
* return NULL;
* }
* // Whenever they free this, we close the file.
* talloc_set_destructor(fd, destroy_fd);
* return fd;
