2013-10-18Remove assert in malloc statistic. Fixes bug 12486.Ondřej Bílka
2013-10-10malloc/hooks.c: Correct check for overflow in memalign_check.Will Newton
A large value of bytes passed to memalign_check can cause an integer overflow in _int_memalign and heap corruption. This issue can be exposed by running tst-memalign with MALLOC_CHECK_=3. ChangeLog: 2013-10-10 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org> * malloc/hooks.c (memalign_check): Ensure the value of bytes passed to _int_memalign does not overflow.
2013-10-04malloc/tst-valloc.c: Tidy up code.Will Newton
Add some comments and call free on all potentially allocated pointers. Also remove duplicate check for NULL pointer. ChangeLog: 2013-10-04 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org> * malloc/tst-valloc.c: Add comments. (do_test): Add comments and call free on all potentially allocated pointers. Remove duplicate check for NULL pointer. Add space after cast.

2013-05-15Move _obstack_compat out of commonPeter Collingbourne
it is impossible to create an alias of a common symbol (as compat_symbol does), because common symbols do not have a section or an offset until linked. GNU as tolerates aliases of common symbols by simply creating another common symbol, but other assemblers (notably LLVM's integrated assembler) are less tolerant. 2013-05-15 Peter Collingbourne <pcc@google.com> * malloc/obstack.c (_obstack_compat): Add initializer. -

2013-01-17Add HAVE_MREMAP for mremap usagePino Toscano
Introduce (only on Linux) and use a HAVE_MREMAP symbol to advertize mremap availability. Move the malloc-sysdep.h include from arena.c to malloc.c, since what is provided by malloc-sysdep.h is needed earlier in malloc.c, before the inclusion of arena.c.

2012-11-19muntrace: reset file and hooks before finalizing the streamPino Toscano
fclose will call free, invoking its hook, then fprintf which would indirectly try to allocate a buffer, and this can cause malloc to be used (thus its hook to be invoked) if libio uses malloc instead of mmap; given any malloc/free hook locks the internal lock, this leads to a deadlock. To prevent this hook roundtrip at muntrace, first unset MALLSTREAM and the hooks, and only after that close the trace file.

2012-09-25Shrink heap on linux when overcommit_memory == 2Siddhesh Poyarekar
Using madvise with MADV_DONTNEED to release memory back to the kernel is not sufficient to change the commit charge accounted against the process on Linux. It is OK however, when overcommit is enabled or is heuristic. However, when overcommit is restricted to a percentage of memory setting the contents of /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory as 2, it makes a difference since memory requests will fail. Hence, we do what we do with secure exec binaries, which is to call mmap on the region to be dropped with MAP_FIXED. This internally unmaps the pages in question and reduces the amount of memory accounted against the process.
