mmmalloc
Appearance
< Projects
mmmalloc is a misoptimised memory allocator: my own
malloc, free, calloc and
realloc. It is the new version of hallocator, my
previous allocator: memory now grows dynamically and calloc
is implemented.
Synopsis
void *malloc(size_t size); void free(void *_Nullable ptr); void *calloc(size_t nmemb, size_t size); void *realloc(void *_Nullable ptr, size_t size);
They follow the usual C11 and POSIX semantics, with one difference:
size must be greater than 0 (the non-GNU approach). On
error they return NULL and set errno to
ENOMEM; nothing makes the program exit.
Warning The functions are not thread-safe: locking has to be handled externally.
If you notice strange behaviour you think comes from the allocator, open an issue.
