-People don't like typing, so they come up with ridiculous names like memchunkhdr to refer to memory chunk headers, i.e. headers describing chunks of memory allocated by the ARM11 kernel.
+#REDIRECT [[MemoryBlockHeader]]
-Here is some code describing the layout of a memory chunk header. TODO: If the reader happens to know anything about this barely documented topic, I hereby encourage them to clarify where this is actually used and how it ties into the rest of the kernel.
-    struct MemoryChunkHeader {
-        int num_pages; // size of this chunk in terms of small pages
-        void* next;
-        void* prev;
-        int unk1;
-        int unk2;
-    };
-The "next" and "prev" members are used to implement a linked-list. In fact, chances are this is actually a kernel object inherited from [[KLinkedList]].
