memchunkhdr = a data structure describing chunks of memory allocated by the ARM11 kernel.
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.
