/**
This is a version (aka ptmalloc2) of malloc/free/realloc written by
Doug Lea and adapted to multiple threads/arenas by Wolfram Gloger.
* Version ptmalloc2-20011215
based on:
VERSION 2.7.0 Sun Mar 11 14:14:06 2001 Doug Lea (dl at gee)
* Quickstart
In order to compile this implementation, a Makefile is provided with
the ptmalloc2 distribution, which has pre-defined targets for some
popular systems (e.g. "make posix" for Posix threads). All that is
typically required with regard to compiler flags is the selection of
the thread package via defining one out of USE_PTHREADS, USE_THR or
USE_SPROC. Check the thread-m.h file for what effects this has.
Many/most systems will additionally require USE_TSD_DATA_HACK to be
defined, so this is the default for "make posix".
* Why use this malloc?
This is not the fastest, most space-conserving, most portable, or
most tunable malloc ever written. However it is among the fastest
while also being among the most space-conserving, portable and tunable.
Consistent balance across these factors results in a good general-purpose
allocator for malloc-intensive programs.
The main properties of the algorithms are:
* For large (>= 512 bytes) requests, it is a pure best-fit allocator,
with ties normally decided via FIFO (i.e. least recently used).
* For small (<= 64 bytes by default) requests, it is a caching
allocator, that maintains pools of quickly recycled chunks.
* In between, and for combinations of large and small requests, it does
the best it can trying to meet both goals at once.
* For very large requests (>= 128KB by default), it relies on system
memory mapping facilities, if supported.
For a longer but slightly out of date high-level description, see
http://gee.cs.oswego.edu/dl/html/malloc.html
You may already by default be using a C library containing a malloc
that is based on some version of this malloc (for example in
linux). You might still want to use the one in this file in order to
customize settings or to avoid overheads associated with library
versions.
* Contents, described in more detail in "description of public routines" below.
Supported pointer representation: 4 or 8 bytes
Supported size_t representation: 4 or 8 bytes
Note that size_t is allowed to be 4 bytes even if pointers are 8.
You can adjust this by defining INTERNAL_SIZE_T
Alignment: 2 * sizeof(size_t) (default)
(i.e., 8 byte alignment with 4byte size_t). This suffices for
nearly all current machines and C compilers. However, you can
define MALLOC_ALIGNMENT to be wider than this if necessary.
Minimum overhead per allocated chunk: 4 or 8 bytes
Each malloced chunk has a hidden word of overhead holding size
and status information.
When a chunk is freed, 12 (for 4byte ptrs) or 20 (for 8 byte
ptrs but 4 byte size) or 24 (for 8/8) additional bytes are
needed; 4 (8) for a trailing size field and 8 (16) bytes for
free list pointers. Thus, the minimum allocatable size is
16/24/32 bytes.
Even a request for zero bytes (i.e., malloc(0)) returns a
pointer to something of the minimum allocatable size.
The maximum overhead wastage (i.e., number of extra bytes
allocated than were requested in malloc) is less than or equal
to the minimum size, except for requests >= mmap_threshold that
are serviced via mmap(), where the worst case wastage is 2 *
sizeof(size_t) bytes plus the remainder from a system page (the
minimal mmap unit); typically 4096 or 8192 bytes.
Maximum allocated size: 4-byte size_t: 2^32 minus about two pages
8-byte size_t: 2^64 minus about two pages
It is assumed that (possibly signed) size_t values suffice to
represent chunk sizes. `Possibly signed' is due to the fact
that `size_t' may be defined on a system as either a signed or
an unsigned type. The ISO C standard says that it must be
unsigned, but a few systems are known not to adhere to this.
Additionally, even when size_t is unsigned, sbrk (which is by
default used to obtain memory from system) accepts signed
arguments, and may not be able to handle size_t-wide arguments
with negative sign bit. Generally, values that would
appear as negative after accounting for overhead and alignment
are supported only via mmap(), which does not have this
limitation.
Requests for sizes outside the allowed range will perform an optional
failure action and then return null. (Requests may also
also fail because a system is out of memory.)
Thread-safety: thread-safe unless NO_THREADS is defined
Compliance: I believe it is compliant with the 1997 Single Unix Specification
(See http://www.opennc.org). Also SVID/XPG, ANSI C, and probably
others as well.
* Synopsis of compile-time options:
People have reported using previous versions of this malloc on all
versions of Unix, sometimes by tweaking some of the defines
below. It has been tested most extensively on Solaris and
Linux. It is also reported to work on WIN32 platforms.
People also report using it in stand-alone embedded systems.
The implementation is in straight, hand-tuned ANSI C. It is not
at all modular. (Sorry!) It uses a lot of macros. To be at all
usable, this code should be compiled using an optimizing compiler
(for example gcc -O3) that can simplify expressions and control
paths. (FAQ: some macros import variables as arguments rather than
declare locals because people reported that some debuggers
otherwise get confused.)

/**
Debugging:
Because freed chunks may be overwritten with bookkeeping fields, this
malloc will often die when freed memory is overwritten by user
programs. This can be very effective (albeit in an annoying way)
in helping track down dangling pointers.
If you compile with -DMALLOC_DEBUG, a number of assertion checks are
enabled that will catch more memory errors. You probably won't be
able to make much sense of the actual assertion errors, but they
should help you locate incorrectly overwritten memory. The checking
is fairly extensive, and will slow down execution
noticeably. Calling malloc_stats or mallinfo with MALLOC_DEBUG set
will attempt to check every non-mmapped allocated and free chunk in
the course of computing the summmaries. (By nature, mmapped regions
cannot be checked very much automatically.)
Setting MALLOC_DEBUG may also be helpful if you are trying to modify
this code. The assertions in the check routines spell out in more
detail the assumptions and invariants underlying the algorithms.
Setting MALLOC_DEBUG does NOT provide an automated mechanism for
checking that all accesses to malloced memory stay within their
bounds. However, there are several add-ons and adaptations of this
or other mallocs available that do this.
*/
/**
INTERNAL_SIZE_T is the word-size used for internal bookkeeping
of chunk sizes.
The default version is the same as size_t.
While not strictly necessary, it is best to define this as an
unsigned type, even if size_t is a signed type. This may avoid some
artificial size limitations on some systems.
On a 64-bit machine, you may be able to reduce malloc overhead by
defining INTERNAL_SIZE_T to be a 32 bit `unsigned int' at the
expense of not being able to handle more than 2^32 of malloced
space. If this limitation is acceptable, you are encouraged to set
this unless you are on a platform requiring 16byte alignments. In
this case the alignment requirements turn out to negate any
potential advantages of decreasing size_t word size.
Implementors: Beware of the possible combinations of:
- INTERNAL_SIZE_T might be signed or unsigned, might be 32 or 64 bits,
and might be the same width as int or as long
- size_t might have different width and signedness as INTERNAL_SIZE_T
- int and long might be 32 or 64 bits, and might be the same width
To deal with this, most comparisons and difference computations
among INTERNAL_SIZE_Ts should cast them to unsigned long, being
aware of the fact that casting an unsigned int to a wider long does
not sign-extend. (This also makes checking for negative numbers
awkward.) Some of these casts result in harmless compiler warnings
on some systems.

are optimized for the case of 8-byte alignment.

TRIM_FASTBINS controls whether free() of a very small chunk can

footprint, but will almost always slow down programs that use a lot
of small chunks.
Define this only if you are willing to give up some speed to more
aggressively reduce system-level memory footprint when releasing
memory in programs that use many small chunks. You can get
essentially the same effect by setting MXFAST to 0, but this can
lead to even greater slowdowns in programs using many small chunks.
TRIM_FASTBINS is an in-between compile-time option, that disables
only those chunks bordering topmost memory from being placed in
fastbins.

independent_calloc is similar to calloc, but instead of returning a
single cleared space, it returns an array of pointers to n_elements
independent elements that can hold contents of size elem_size, each
of which starts out cleared, and can be independently freed,
realloc'ed etc. The elements are guaranteed to be adjacently
allocated (this is not guaranteed to occur with multiple callocs or
mallocs), which may also improve cache locality in some
applications.
The "chunks" argument is optional (i.e., may be null, which is
probably the most typical usage). If it is null, the returned array
is itself dynamically allocated and should also be freed when it is
no longer needed. Otherwise, the chunks array must be of at least
n_elements in length. It is filled in with the pointers to the
chunks.
In either case, independent_calloc returns this pointer array, or
null if the allocation failed. If n_elements is zero and "chunks"
is null, it returns a chunk representing an array with zero elements
(which should be freed if not wanted).
Each element must be individually freed when it is no longer
needed. If you'd like to instead be able to free all at once, you
should instead use regular calloc and assign pointers into this
space to represent elements. (In this case though, you cannot
independently free elements.)
independent_calloc simplifies and speeds up implementations of many
kinds of pools. It may also be useful when constructing large data
structures that initially have a fixed number of fixed-sized nodes,
but the number is not known at compile time, and some of the nodes
may later need to be freed. For example:
struct Node { int item; struct Node* next; };
struct Node* build_list() {
struct Node** pool;
int n = read_number_of_nodes_needed();
if (n <= 0) return 0;
pool = (struct Node**)(independent_calloc(n, sizeof(struct Node), 0);
if (pool == 0) die();
// organize into a linked list...
struct Node* first = pool[0];
for (i = 0; i < n-1; ++i)
pool[i]->next = pool[i+1];
free(pool); // Can now free the array (or not, if it is needed later)

be adjacently allocated (this is not guaranteed to occur with

(which should be freed if not wanted).
Each element must be individually freed when it is no longer
needed. If you'd like to instead be able to free all at once, you
should instead use a single regular malloc, and assign pointers at
particular offsets in the aggregate space. (In this case though, you
cannot independently free elements.)
independent_comallac differs from independent_calloc in that each
element may have a different size, and also that it does not
automatically clear elements.
independent_comalloc can be used to speed up allocation in cases
where several structs or objects must always be allocated at the
same time. For example:
In general though, independent_comalloc is worth using only for
larger values of n_elements. For small values, you probably won't
detect enough difference from series of malloc calls to bother.
Overuse of independent_comalloc can increase overall memory usage,
since it cannot reuse existing noncontiguous small chunks that
might be available for some of the elements.

M_MXFAST is the maximum request size used for "fastbins", special bins
that hold returned chunks without consolidating their spaces. This
enables future requests for chunks of the same size to be handled
very quickly, but can increase fragmentation, and thus increase the

This malloc manages fastbins very conservatively yet still
efficiently, so fragmentation is rarely a problem for values less
than or equal to the default. The maximum supported value of MXFAST
is 80. You wouldn't want it any higher than this anyway. Fastbins
are designed especially for use with many small structs, objects or
strings -- the default handles structs/objects/arrays with sizes up
to 8 4byte fields, or small strings representing words, tokens,
etc. Using fastbins for larger objects normally worsens
fragmentation without improving speed.
M_MXFAST is set in REQUEST size units. It is internally used in
chunksize units, which adds padding and alignment. You can reduce
M_MXFAST to 0 to disable all use of fastbins. This causes the malloc

M_TRIM_THRESHOLD is the maximum amount of unused top-most memory
to keep before releasing via malloc_trim in free().
Automatic trimming is mainly useful in long-lived programs.
Because trimming via sbrk can be slow on some systems, and can
sometimes be wasteful (in cases where programs immediately
afterward allocate more large chunks) the value should be high
enough so that your overall system performance would improve by
releasing this much memory.
The trim threshold and the mmap control parameters (see below)
can be traded off with one another. Trimming and mmapping are
two different ways of releasing unused memory back to the
system. Between these two, it is often possible to keep
system-level demands of a long-lived program down to a bare
minimum. For example, in one test suite of sessions measuring
the XF86 X server on Linux, using a trim threshold of 128K and a
mmap threshold of 192K led to near-minimal long term resource
consumption.
If you are using this malloc in a long-lived program, it should
pay to experiment with these values. As a rough guide, you
might set to a value close to the average size of a process
(program) running on your system. Releasing this much memory
would allow such a process to run in memory. Generally, it's
worth it to tune for trimming rather tham memory mapping when a
program undergoes phases where several large chunks are
allocated and released in ways that can reuse each other's
storage, perhaps mixed with phases where there are no such
chunks at all. And in well-behaved long-lived programs,
controlling release of large blocks via trimming versus mapping
is usually faster.
However, in most programs, these parameters serve mainly as
protection against the system-level effects of carrying around
massive amounts of unneeded memory. Since frequent calls to
sbrk, mmap, and munmap otherwise degrade performance, the default
parameters are set to relatively high values that serve only as
safeguards.
The trim value It must be greater than page size to have any useful
effect. To disable trimming completely, you can set to
(unsigned long)(-1)
Trim settings interact with fastbin (MXFAST) settings: Unless
TRIM_FASTBINS is defined, automatic trimming never takes place upon
freeing a chunk with size less than or equal to MXFAST. Trimming is
instead delayed until subsequent freeing of larger chunks. However,
you can still force an attempted trim by calling malloc_trim.
Also, trimming is not generally possible in cases where
the main arena is obtained via mmap.
Note that the trick some people use of mallocing a huge space and
then freeing it at program startup, in an attempt to reserve system
memory, doesn't have the intended effect under automatic trimming,
since that memory will immediately be returned to the system.

/**
M_TOP_PAD is the amount of extra `padding' space to allocate or
retain whenever sbrk is called. It is used in two ways internally:
* When sbrk is called to extend the top of the arena to satisfy
a new malloc request, this much padding is added to the sbrk
request.
* When malloc_trim is called automatically from free(),
it is used as the `pad' argument.
In both cases, the actual amount of padding is rounded
so that the end of the arena is always a system page boundary.
The main reason for using padding is to avoid calling sbrk so
often. Having even a small pad greatly reduces the likelihood
that nearly every malloc request during program start-up (or
after trimming) will invoke sbrk, which needlessly wastes
time.
Automatic rounding-up to page-size units is normally sufficient
to avoid measurable overhead, so the default is 0. However, in
systems where sbrk is relatively slow, it can pay to increase
this value, at the expense of carrying around more memory than
the program needs.

/**
M_MMAP_THRESHOLD is the request size threshold for using mmap()
to service a request. Requests of at least this size that cannot
be allocated using already-existing space will be serviced via mmap.
(If enough normal freed space already exists it is used instead.)
Using mmap segregates relatively large chunks of memory so that
they can be individually obtained and released from the host
system. A request serviced through mmap is never reused by any
other request (at least not directly; the system may just so
happen to remap successive requests to the same locations).
Segregating space in this way has the benefits that:
1. Mmapped space can ALWAYS be individually released back
to the system, which helps keep the system level memory
demands of a long-lived program low.
2. Mapped memory can never become `locked' between
other chunks, as can happen with normally allocated chunks, which
means that even trimming via malloc_trim would not release them.
3. On some systems with "holes" in address spaces, mmap can obtain
memory that sbrk cannot.
However, it has the disadvantages that:
1. The space cannot be reclaimed, consolidated, and then
used to service later requests, as happens with normal chunks.
2. It can lead to more wastage because of mmap page alignment
requirements
3. It causes malloc performance to be more dependent on host
system memory management support routines which may vary in
implementation quality and may impose arbitrary
limitations. Generally, servicing a request via normal
malloc steps is faster than going through a system's mmap.
The advantages of mmap nearly always outweigh disadvantages for
"large" chunks, but the value of "large" varies across systems. The
default is an empirically derived value that works well in most
systems.
Update in 2006:
The above was written in 2001. Since then the world has changed a lot.
Memory got bigger. Applications got bigger. The virtual address space
layout in 32 bit linux changed.
In the new situation, brk() and mmap space is shared and there are no
artificial limits on brk size imposed by the kernel. What is more,
applications have started using transient allocations larger than the
128Kb as was imagined in 2001.
The price for mmap is also high now; each time glibc mmaps from the
kernel, the kernel is forced to zero out the memory it gives to the
application. Zeroing memory is expensive and eats a lot of cache and
memory bandwidth. This has nothing to do with the efficiency of the
virtual memory system, by doing mmap the kernel just has no choice but
to zero.
In 2001, the kernel had a maximum size for brk() which was about 800
megabytes on 32 bit x86, at that point brk() would hit the first
mmaped shared libaries and couldn't expand anymore. With current 2.6
kernels, the VA space layout is different and brk() and mmap
both can span the entire heap at will.
Rather than using a static threshold for the brk/mmap tradeoff,
we are now using a simple dynamic one. The goal is still to avoid
fragmentation. The old goals we kept are
1) try to get the long lived large allocations to use mmap()
2) really large allocations should always use mmap()
and we're adding now:
3) transient allocations should use brk() to avoid forcing the kernel
having to zero memory over and over again
The implementation works with a sliding threshold, which is by default
limited to go between 128Kb and 32Mb (64Mb for 64 bitmachines) and starts
out at 128Kb as per the 2001 default.
This allows us to satisfy requirement 1) under the assumption that long
lived allocations are made early in the process' lifespan, before it has
started doing dynamic allocations of the same size (which will
increase the threshold).
The upperbound on the threshold satisfies requirement 2)
The threshold goes up in value when the application frees memory that was
allocated with the mmap allocator. The idea is that once the application
starts freeing memory of a certain size, it's highly probable that this is
a size the application uses for transient allocations. This estimator
is there to satisfy the new third requirement.
/**
M_MMAP_MAX is the maximum number of requests to simultaneously
service using mmap. This parameter exists because
some systems have a limited number of internal tables for
use by mmap, and using more than a few of them may degrade
performance.
The default is set to a value that serves only as a safeguard.
Setting to 0 disables use of mmap for servicing large requests. If
HAVE_MMAP is not set, the default value is 0, and attempts to set it
to non-zero values in mallopt will fail.

malloc_chunk details:
(The following includes lightly edited explanations by Colin Plumb.)
Chunks of memory are maintained using a `boundary tag' method as
described in e.g., Knuth or Standish. (See the paper by Paul
Wilson ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu/pub/garbage/allocsrv.ps for a
survey of such techniques.) Sizes of free chunks are stored both
in the front of each chunk and at the end. This makes
consolidating fragmented chunks into bigger chunks very fast. The
size fields also hold bits representing whether chunks are free or
in use.
An allocated chunk looks like this:
chunk-> +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Size of previous chunk, if allocated | |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Size of chunk, in bytes |M|P|
mem-> +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| User data starts here... .
. .
. (malloc_usable_size() bytes) .
. |
nextchunk-> +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Size of chunk |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Where "chunk" is the front of the chunk for the purpose of most of
the malloc code, but "mem" is the pointer that is returned to the
user. "Nextchunk" is the beginning of the next contiguous chunk.
Chunks always begin on even word boundries, so the mem portion
(which is returned to the user) is also on an even word boundary, and
thus at least double-word aligned.
Free chunks are stored in circular doubly-linked lists, and look like this:
chunk-> +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Size of previous chunk |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
`head:' | Size of chunk, in bytes |P|
mem-> +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Forward pointer to next chunk in list |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Back pointer to previous chunk in list |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Unused space (may be 0 bytes long) .
. .
. |
nextchunk-> +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
`foot:' | Size of chunk, in bytes |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The P (PREV_INUSE) bit, stored in the unused low-order bit of the
chunk size (which is always a multiple of two words), is an in-use
bit for the *previous* chunk. If that bit is *clear*, then the
word before the current chunk size contains the previous chunk
size, and can be used to find the front of the previous chunk.
The very first chunk allocated always has this bit set,
preventing access to non-existent (or non-owned) memory. If
prev_inuse is set for any given chunk, then you CANNOT determine
the size of the previous chunk, and might even get a memory
addressing fault when trying to do so.
Note that the `foot' of the current chunk is actually represented
as the prev_size of the NEXT chunk. This makes it easier to
deal with alignments etc but can be very confusing when trying
to extend or adapt this code.
The two exceptions to all this are
1. The special chunk `top' doesn't bother using the
trailing size field since there is no next contiguous chunk
that would have to index off it. After initialization, `top'
is forced to always exist. If it would become less than
MINSIZE bytes long, it is replenished.
2. Chunks allocated via mmap, which have the second-lowest-order
bit M (IS_MMAPPED) set in their size fields. Because they are
allocated one-by-one, each must contain its own trailing size field.

/**
Bins
An array of bin headers for free chunks. Each bin is doubly
linked. The bins are approximately proportionally (log) spaced.
There are a lot of these bins (128). This may look excessive, but
works very well in practice. Most bins hold sizes that are
unusual as malloc request sizes, but are more usual for fragments
and consolidated sets of chunks, which is what these bins hold, so
they can be found quickly. All procedures maintain the invariant
that no consolidated chunk physically borders another one, so each
chunk in a list is known to be preceeded and followed by either
inuse chunks or the ends of memory.
Chunks in bins are kept in size order, with ties going to the
approximately least recently used chunk. Ordering isn't needed
for the small bins, which all contain the same-sized chunks, but
facilitates best-fit allocation for larger chunks. These lists
are just sequential. Keeping them in order almost never requires
enough traversal to warrant using fancier ordered data
structures.
Chunks of the same size are linked with the most
recently freed at the front, and allocations are taken from the
back. This results in LRU (FIFO) allocation order, which tends
to give each chunk an equal opportunity to be consolidated with
adjacent freed chunks, resulting in larger free chunks and less
fragmentation.
To simplify use in double-linked lists, each bin header acts
as a malloc_chunk. This avoids special-casing for headers.
But to conserve space and improve locality, we allocate
only the fd/bk pointers of bins, and then use repositioning tricks
to treat these as the fields of a malloc_chunk*.

-------------------- Alternative MORECORE functions --------------------
*/
/**
General Requirements for MORECORE.
The MORECORE function must have the following properties:
If MORECORE_CONTIGUOUS is false:
* MORECORE must allocate in multiples of pagesize. It will
only be called with arguments that are multiples of pagesize.
* MORECORE(0) must return an address that is at least
MALLOC_ALIGNMENT aligned. (Page-aligning always suffices.)
else (i.e. If MORECORE_CONTIGUOUS is true):
* Consecutive calls to MORECORE with positive arguments
return increasing addresses, indicating that space has been
contiguously extended.
* MORECORE need not allocate in multiples of pagesize.
Calls to MORECORE need not have args of multiples of pagesize.
* MORECORE need not page-align.
In either case:
* MORECORE may allocate more memory than requested. (Or even less,
but this will generally result in a malloc failure.)
* MORECORE must not allocate memory when given argument zero, but
instead return one past the end address of memory from previous
nonzero call. This malloc does NOT call MORECORE(0)
until at least one call with positive arguments is made, so
the initial value returned is not important.
* Even though consecutive calls to MORECORE need not return contiguous
addresses, it must be OK for malloc'ed chunks to span multiple
regions in those cases where they do happen to be contiguous.
* MORECORE need not handle negative arguments -- it may instead
just return MORECORE_FAILURE when given negative arguments.
Negative arguments are always multiples of pagesize. MORECORE
must not misinterpret negative args as large positive unsigned
args. You can suppress all such calls from even occurring by defining
MORECORE_CANNOT_TRIM,
There is some variation across systems about the type of the
argument to sbrk/MORECORE. If size_t is unsigned, then it cannot
actually be size_t, because sbrk supports negative args, so it is
normally the signed type of the same width as size_t (sometimes
declared as "intptr_t", and sometimes "ptrdiff_t"). It doesn't much
matter though. Internally, we use "long" as arguments, which should
work across all reasonable possibilities.
Additionally, if MORECORE ever returns failure for a positive
request, and HAVE_MMAP is true, then mmap is used as a noncontiguous
system allocator. This is a useful backup strategy for systems with
holes in address spaces -- in this case sbrk cannot contiguously
expand the heap, but mmap may be able to map noncontiguous space.
If you'd like mmap to ALWAYS be used, you can define MORECORE to be
a function that always returns MORECORE_FAILURE.
If you are using this malloc with something other than sbrk (or its
emulation) to supply memory regions, you probably want to set
MORECORE_CONTIGUOUS as false. As an example, here is a custom
allocator kindly contributed for pre-OSX macOS. It uses virtually
but not necessarily physically contiguous non-paged memory (locked
in, present and won't get swapped out). You can use it by
uncommenting this section, adding some #includes, and setting up the
appropriate defines above:
