Hi Jason,
Suppose I have an arena_chunk and the map has the following information
map[0].bits = 0x3ff8
map[1].bits = 0x2ff8
map[2].bits = 0x3ff8
map[3].bits = 0x149

0x149 = 101001001

In this example

Only map[3] points to an allocated page and it is a small allocation and the bin index is 0x14 but I don't have any page offset. This is the case with many small allocations and I don't have any page offset.

Since I am running on a 32 bit machine, I use the following layout mentioned in the explanation of arena_chunk_map_s
???????? ???????? ????nnnn nnnndula

Can you please tell me If I am missing something very basic.

Regards,
Shireesh

Even if I find out the page's offset how do I find the address of arena_run_t, since I just know the mapping information for every page which is present in arena_chunk_t.

Take a close look at the header comments for struct arena_chunk_map_s.  The information is in the chunk's page map, which it sounds like you've already figured out how to access.
