Subject:   is there any heap functions in the kernel ?

Hi,

i was wondering if there is any place in the kernel with functions
to implement a "heap" data structure. I would expect so, as
typically this structure is used wherever we need to do some
kind of scheduling, but i am not sure on where to look...

Ideas ?

(for those who wonder why I ask -- i redesigning dummynet so it
handles more efficiently large numbers of pipes, and while i
have rewritten the heap management code, i was wondering if i
am not duplicating existing funcionality.)

	cheers
	luigi
