/* Software virtual memory for bitmaps for Ghostscript */
/*
* This code implements a paged, software virtual memory system.
* It is designed for bitmaps, and specifically designed to work well
* with the structures that Ghostscript uses for image devices,
* as defined in gxdevmem.h. This impacts the design in several ways:
* - The page size is a multiple of the scan line size, which is
* a multiple of 4 bytes but not necessarily a power of 2.
* - There is special provision for keeping track of pages that
* are all white.
* - The page replacement algorithm is not LRU, but is a simpler
* algorithm based on beliefs about spatial locality.
* - Moving pages in and out of memory updates the scan line table
* defined by gxdevmem.h.
* - There is a special procedure to bring an entire rectangle
* into memory.
* Otherwise, the design is quite standard. Each instance of the
* virtual memory system (there can be many) has its own file, page
* size, scan line size, page table / scan line table, and other
* structures.
