Buddy memory allocation information


The buddy memory allocation technique is a memory allocation algorithm that divides memory into partitions to try to satisfy a memory request as suitably as possible. This system makes use of splitting memory into halves to try to give a best fit. According to Donald Knuth, the buddy system was invented in 1963 by Harry Markowitz, and was first described by Kenneth C. Knowlton (published 1965).[1] The Buddy memory allocation is relatively easy to implement. It supports limited but efficient splitting and coalescing of memory blocks.
