// A spanSet is a two-level data structure consisting of a
// growable spine that points to fixed-sized blocks. The spine
// can be accessed without locks, but adding a block or
// growing it requires taking the spine lock.
//
// Because each mspan covers at least 8K of heap and takes at
// most 8 bytes in the spanSet, the growth of the spine is
// quite limited.
//
// The spine and all blocks are allocated off-heap, which
// allows this to be used in the memory manager and avoids the
// need for write barriers on all of these. spanSetBlocks are
// managed in a pool, though never freed back to the operating
// system. We never release spine memory because there could be
// concurrent lock-free access and we're likely to reuse it
// anyway. (In principle, we could do this during STW.)

// index is the head and tail of the spanSet in a single field.
// The head and the tail both represent an index into the logical
// concatenation of all blocks, with the head always behind or
// equal to the tail (indicating an empty set). This field is
// always accessed atomically.
//
// The head and the tail are only 32 bits wide, which means we
// can only support up to 2^32 pushes before a reset. If every
// span in the heap were stored in this set, and each span were
// the minimum size (1 runtime page, 8 KiB), then roughly the
// smallest heap which would be unrepresentable is 32 TiB in size.
