7 * VERSION 2.6.6 Sun Mar 5 19:10:03 2000 Doug Lea (dl at gee)
9 Note: There may be an updated version of this malloc obtainable at

11 Check before installing!
13 * Why use this malloc?
15 This is not the fastest, most space-conserving, most portable, or
16 most tunable malloc ever written. However it is among the fastest
17 while also being among the most space-conserving, portable and tunable.
18 Consistent balance across these factors results in a good general-purpose
19 allocator. For a high-level description, see
20 http://g.oswego.edu/dl/html/malloc.html
22 * Synopsis of public routines
24 (Much fuller descriptions are contained in the program documentation below.)
27 Return a pointer to a newly allocated chunk of at least n bytes, or null
28 if no space is available.
30 Release the chunk of memory pointed to by p, or no effect if p is null.
31 realloc(Void_t* p, size_t n);
32 Return a pointer to a chunk of size n that contains the same data
33 as does chunk p up to the minimum of (n, p's size) bytes, or null
34 if no space is available. The returned pointer may or may not be
35 the same as p. If p is null, equivalent to malloc. Unless the
36 #define REALLOC_ZERO_BYTES_FREES below is set, realloc with a
37 size argument of zero (re)allocates a minimum-sized chunk.
38 memalign(size_t alignment, size_t n);
39 Return a pointer to a newly allocated chunk of n bytes, aligned
40 in accord with the alignment argument, which must be a power of
43 Equivalent to memalign(pagesize, n), where pagesize is the page
44 size of the system (or as near to this as can be figured out from
45 all the includes/defines below.)
47 Equivalent to valloc(minimum-page-that-holds(n)), that is,
48 round up n to nearest pagesize.
49 calloc(size_t unit, size_t quantity);
50 Returns a pointer to quantity * unit bytes, with all locations
53 Equivalent to free(p).
54 malloc_trim(size_t pad);
55 Release all but pad bytes of freed top-most memory back
56 to the system. Return 1 if successful, else 0.
57 malloc_usable_size(Void_t* p);
58 Report the number usable allocated bytes associated with allocated
59 chunk p. This may or may not report more bytes than were requested,
60 due to alignment and minimum size constraints.
62 Prints brief summary statistics on stderr.
64 Returns (by copy) a struct containing various summary statistics.
65 mallopt(int parameter_number, int parameter_value)
66 Changes one of the tunable parameters described below. Returns
67 1 if successful in changing the parameter, else 0.
72 8 byte alignment is currently hardwired into the design. This
73 seems to suffice for all current machines and C compilers.
75 Assumed pointer representation: 4 or 8 bytes
76 Code for 8-byte pointers is untested by me but has worked
77 reliably by Wolfram Gloger, who contributed most of the
78 changes supporting this.
80 Assumed size_t representation: 4 or 8 bytes
81 Note that size_t is allowed to be 4 bytes even if pointers are 8.
83 Minimum overhead per allocated chunk: 4 or 8 bytes
84 Each malloced chunk has a hidden overhead of 4 bytes holding size
85 and status information.
87 Minimum allocated size: 4-byte ptrs: 16 bytes (including 4 overhead)
88 8-byte ptrs: 24/32 bytes (including, 4/8 overhead)
90 When a chunk is freed, 12 (for 4byte ptrs) or 20 (for 8 byte
91 ptrs but 4 byte size) or 24 (for 8/8) additional bytes are
92 needed; 4 (8) for a trailing size field
93 and 8 (16) bytes for free list pointers. Thus, the minimum
94 allocatable size is 16/24/32 bytes.
96 Even a request for zero bytes (i.e., malloc(0)) returns a
97 pointer to something of the minimum allocatable size.
99 Maximum allocated size: 4-byte size_t: 2^31 - 8 bytes
100 8-byte size_t: 2^63 - 16 bytes
102 It is assumed that (possibly signed) size_t bit values suffice to
103 represent chunk sizes. `Possibly signed' is due to the fact
104 that `size_t' may be defined on a system as either a signed or
105 an unsigned type. To be conservative, values that would appear
106 as negative numbers are avoided.
107 Requests for sizes with a negative sign bit when the request
108 size is treaded as a long will return null.
110 Maximum overhead wastage per allocated chunk: normally 15 bytes
112 Alignnment demands, plus the minimum allocatable size restriction
113 make the normal worst-case wastage 15 bytes (i.e., up to 15
114 more bytes will be allocated than were requested in malloc), with
116 1. Because requests for zero bytes allocate non-zero space,
117 the worst case wastage for a request of zero bytes is 24 bytes.
118 2. For requests >= mmap_threshold that are serviced via
119 mmap(), the worst case wastage is 8 bytes plus the remainder
120 from a system page (the minimal mmap unit); typically 4096 bytes.
124 Here are some features that are NOT currently supported
126 * No user-definable hooks for callbacks and the like.
127 * No automated mechanism for fully checking that all accesses
128 to malloced memory stay within their bounds.
129 * No support for compaction.
131 * Synopsis of compile-time options:
133 People have reported using previous versions of this malloc on all
134 versions of Unix, sometimes by tweaking some of the defines
135 below. It has been tested most extensively on Solaris and
136 Linux. It is also reported to work on WIN32 platforms.
137 People have also reported adapting this malloc for use in
138 stand-alone embedded systems.
140 The implementation is in straight, hand-tuned ANSI C. Among other
141 consequences, it uses a lot of macros. Because of this, to be at
142 all usable, this code should be compiled using an optimizing compiler
143 (for example gcc -O2) that can simplify expressions and control
146 __STD_C (default: derived from C compiler defines)
147 Nonzero if using ANSI-standard C compiler, a C++ compiler, or
148 a C compiler sufficiently close to ANSI to get away with it.
149 DEBUG (default: NOT defined)
150 Define to enable debugging. Adds fairly extensive assertion-based
151 checking to help track down memory errors, but noticeably slows down
153 REALLOC_ZERO_BYTES_FREES (default: NOT defined)
154 Define this if you think that realloc(p, 0) should be equivalent
155 to free(p). Otherwise, since malloc returns a unique pointer for
156 malloc(0), so does realloc(p, 0).
157 HAVE_MEMCPY (default: defined)
158 Define if you are not otherwise using ANSI STD C, but still
159 have memcpy and memset in your C library and want to use them.
160 Otherwise, simple internal versions are supplied.
161 USE_MEMCPY (default: 1 if HAVE_MEMCPY is defined, 0 otherwise)
162 Define as 1 if you want the C library versions of memset and
163 memcpy called in realloc and calloc (otherwise macro versions are used).
164 At least on some platforms, the simple macro versions usually
165 outperform libc versions.
166 HAVE_MMAP (default: defined as 1)
167 Define to non-zero to optionally make malloc() use mmap() to
168 allocate very large blocks.
169 HAVE_MREMAP (default: defined as 0 unless Linux libc set)
170 Define to non-zero to optionally make realloc() use mremap() to
171 reallocate very large blocks.
172 malloc_getpagesize (default: derived from system #includes)
173 Either a constant or routine call returning the system page size.
174 HAVE_USR_INCLUDE_MALLOC_H (default: NOT defined)
175 Optionally define if you are on a system with a /usr/include/malloc.h
176 that declares struct mallinfo. It is not at all necessary to
177 define this even if you do, but will ensure consistency.
178 INTERNAL_SIZE_T (default: size_t)
179 Define to a 32-bit type (probably `unsigned int') if you are on a
180 64-bit machine, yet do not want or need to allow malloc requests of
181 greater than 2^31 to be handled. This saves space, especially for
183 INTERNAL_LINUX_C_LIB (default: NOT defined)
184 Defined only when compiled as part of Linux libc.
185 Also note that there is some odd internal name-mangling via defines
186 (for example, internally, `malloc' is named `mALLOc') needed
187 when compiling in this case. These look funny but don't otherwise
189 WIN32 (default: undefined)
190 Define this on MS win (95, nt) platforms to compile in sbrk emulation.
191 LACKS_UNISTD_H (default: undefined if not WIN32)
192 Define this if your system does not have a <unistd.h>.
193 LACKS_SYS_PARAM_H (default: undefined if not WIN32)
194 Define this if your system does not have a <sys/param.h>.
195 MORECORE (default: sbrk)
196 The name of the routine to call to obtain more memory from the system.
197 MORECORE_FAILURE (default: -1)
198 The value returned upon failure of MORECORE.
199 MORECORE_CLEARS (default 1)
200 true (1) if the routine mapped to MORECORE zeroes out memory (which
202 DEFAULT_TRIM_THRESHOLD
204 DEFAULT_MMAP_THRESHOLD
206 Default values of tunable parameters (described in detail below)
207 controlling interaction with host system routines (sbrk, mmap, etc).
208 These values may also be changed dynamically via mallopt(). The
209 preset defaults are those that give best performance for typical
211 USE_DL_PREFIX (default: undefined)
212 Prefix all public routines with the string 'dl'. Useful to
213 quickly avoid procedure declaration conflicts and linker symbol
214 conflicts with existing memory allocation routines.

238 #if (__STD_C || defined(WIN32))

268 Because freed chunks may be overwritten with link fields, this
269 malloc will often die when freed memory is overwritten by user
270 programs. This can be very effective (albeit in an annoying way)
271 in helping track down dangling pointers.
273 If you compile with -DDEBUG, a number of assertion checks are
274 enabled that will catch more memory errors. You probably won't be
275 able to make much sense of the actual assertion errors, but they
276 should help you locate incorrectly overwritten memory. The
277 checking is fairly extensive, and will slow down execution
278 noticeably. Calling malloc_stats or mallinfo with DEBUG set will
279 attempt to check every non-mmapped allocated and free chunk in the
280 course of computing the summmaries. (By nature, mmapped regions
281 cannot be checked very much automatically.)
283 Setting DEBUG may also be helpful if you are trying to modify
284 this code. The assertions in the check routines spell out in more
285 detail the assumptions and invariants underlying the algorithms.
290 INTERNAL_SIZE_T is the word-size used for internal bookkeeping
291 of chunk sizes. On a 64-bit machine, you can reduce malloc
292 overhead by defining INTERNAL_SIZE_T to be a 32 bit `unsigned int'
293 at the expense of not being able to handle requests greater than
294 2^31. This limitation is hardly ever a concern; you are encouraged
295 to set this. However, the default version is the same as size_t.

303 REALLOC_ZERO_BYTES_FREES should be set if a call to
304 realloc with zero bytes should be the same as a call to free.
305 Some people think it should. Otherwise, since this malloc
306 returns a unique pointer for malloc(0), so does realloc(p, 0).

343 macro versions are defined here.
345 USE_MEMCPY should be defined as 1 if you actually want to

569 This version of malloc supports the standard SVID/XPG mallinfo
570 routine that returns a struct containing the same kind of
571 information you can get from malloc_stats. It should work on
572 any SVID/XPG compliant system that has a /usr/include/malloc.h
573 defining struct mallinfo. (If you'd like to install such a thing
574 yourself, cut out the preliminary declarations as described above
575 and below and save them in a malloc.h file. But there's no
576 compelling reason to bother to do this.)
578 The main declaration needed is the mallinfo struct that is returned
579 (by-copy) by mallinfo(). The SVID/XPG malloinfo struct contains a
580 bunch of fields, most of which are not even meaningful in this
581 version of malloc. Some of these fields are are instead filled by
582 mallinfo() with other numbers that might possibly be of interest.

635 M_TRIM_THRESHOLD is the maximum amount of unused top-most memory
636 to keep before releasing via malloc_trim in free().
638 Automatic trimming is mainly useful in long-lived programs.
639 Because trimming via sbrk can be slow on some systems, and can
640 sometimes be wasteful (in cases where programs immediately
641 afterward allocate more large chunks) the value should be high
642 enough so that your overall system performance would improve by
645 The trim threshold and the mmap control parameters (see below)
646 can be traded off with one another. Trimming and mmapping are
647 two different ways of releasing unused memory back to the
648 system. Between these two, it is often possible to keep
649 system-level demands of a long-lived program down to a bare
650 minimum. For example, in one test suite of sessions measuring
651 the XF86 X server on Linux, using a trim threshold of 128K and a
652 mmap threshold of 192K led to near-minimal long term resource
655 If you are using this malloc in a long-lived program, it should
656 pay to experiment with these values. As a rough guide, you
657 might set to a value close to the average size of a process
658 (program) running on your system. Releasing this much memory
659 would allow such a process to run in memory. Generally, it's
660 worth it to tune for trimming rather tham memory mapping when a
661 program undergoes phases where several large chunks are
662 allocated and released in ways that can reuse each other's
663 storage, perhaps mixed with phases where there are no such
664 chunks at all. And in well-behaved long-lived programs,
665 controlling release of large blocks via trimming versus mapping
668 However, in most programs, these parameters serve mainly as
669 protection against the system-level effects of carrying around
670 massive amounts of unneeded memory. Since frequent calls to
671 sbrk, mmap, and munmap otherwise degrade performance, the default
672 parameters are set to relatively high values that serve only as
675 The default trim value is high enough to cause trimming only in
676 fairly extreme (by current memory consumption standards) cases.
677 It must be greater than page size to have any useful effect. To
678 disable trimming completely, you can set to (unsigned long)(-1);
684 #ifndef DEFAULT_TOP_PAD
685 #define DEFAULT_TOP_PAD (0)
689 M_TOP_PAD is the amount of extra `padding' space to allocate or
690 retain whenever sbrk is called. It is used in two ways internally:
692 * When sbrk is called to extend the top of the arena to satisfy
693 a new malloc request, this much padding is added to the sbrk
696 * When malloc_trim is called automatically from free(),
697 it is used as the `pad' argument.
699 In both cases, the actual amount of padding is rounded
700 so that the end of the arena is always a system page boundary.
702 The main reason for using padding is to avoid calling sbrk so
703 often. Having even a small pad greatly reduces the likelihood
704 that nearly every malloc request during program start-up (or
705 after trimming) will invoke sbrk, which needlessly wastes
708 Automatic rounding-up to page-size units is normally sufficient
709 to avoid measurable overhead, so the default is 0. However, in
710 systems where sbrk is relatively slow, it can pay to increase
711 this value, at the expense of carrying around more memory than
717 #ifndef DEFAULT_MMAP_THRESHOLD
718 #define DEFAULT_MMAP_THRESHOLD (128 * 1024)
723 M_MMAP_THRESHOLD is the request size threshold for using mmap()
724 to service a request. Requests of at least this size that cannot
725 be allocated using already-existing space will be serviced via mmap.
726 (If enough normal freed space already exists it is used instead.)
728 Using mmap segregates relatively large chunks of memory so that
729 they can be individually obtained and released from the host
730 system. A request serviced through mmap is never reused by any
731 other request (at least not directly; the system may just so
732 happen to remap successive requests to the same locations).
734 Segregating space in this way has the benefit that mmapped space
735 can ALWAYS be individually released back to the system, which
736 helps keep the system level memory demands of a long-lived
737 program low. Mapped memory can never become `locked' between
738 other chunks, as can happen with normally allocated chunks, which
739 menas that even trimming via malloc_trim would not release them.
741 However, it has the disadvantages that:
743 1. The space cannot be reclaimed, consolidated, and then
744 used to service later requests, as happens with normal chunks.
745 2. It can lead to more wastage because of mmap page alignment
747 3. It causes malloc performance to be more dependent on host
748 system memory management support routines which may vary in
749 implementation quality and may impose arbitrary
750 limitations. Generally, servicing a request via normal
751 malloc steps is faster than going through a system's mmap.
753 All together, these considerations should lead you to use mmap
754 only for relatively large requests.
760 #ifndef DEFAULT_MMAP_MAX
762 #define DEFAULT_MMAP_MAX (64)
764 #define DEFAULT_MMAP_MAX (0)
769 M_MMAP_MAX is the maximum number of requests to simultaneously
770 service using mmap. This parameter exists because:
772 1. Some systems have a limited number of internal tables for
774 2. In most systems, overreliance on mmap can degrade overall
776 3. If a program allocates many large regions, it is probably
777 better off using normal sbrk-based allocation routines that
778 can reclaim and reallocate normal heap memory. Using a
779 small value allows transition into this mode after the
780 first few allocations.
782 Setting to 0 disables all use of mmap. If HAVE_MMAP is not set,
783 the default value is 0, and attempts to set it to non-zero values
784 in mallopt will fail.
789 USE_DL_PREFIX will prefix all public routines with the string 'dl'.
790 Useful to quickly avoid procedure declaration conflicts and linker
791 symbol conflicts with existing memory allocation routines.

805 Special defines for linux libc
807 Except when compiled using these special defines for Linux libc
808 using weak aliases, this malloc is NOT designed to work in
809 multithreaded applications. No semaphores or other concurrency
810 control are provided to ensure that multiple malloc or free calls
811 don't run at the same time, which could be disasterous. A single
812 semaphore could be used across malloc, realloc, and free (which is
813 essentially the effect of the linux weak alias approach). It would
814 be hard to obtain finer granularity.
