The libpmemblk library
libpmemblk implements a pmem-resident array of blocks,
all the same size, where a block is updated atomically with
respect to power failure or program interruption (no torn
blocks).
This library is provided for cases requiring large arrays
of objects at least 512 bytes each. Most
developers will find higher level libraries like
libpmemobj to be more generally useful.
