2020-12-23stdlib: fix potential UB and integer overflow with huge allocations using ↵Yann Sionneau
malloc-simple allocator Two things are fixed by this commit: 1/ It is wrong to allocate an object of size > PTRDIFF_MAX. It is explained in this thread: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63303 2/ There was a possible integer overflow in both malloc() and memalign() implementations of stdlib/malloc-simple. The malloc() integer overflow issue is fixed by the side effect of fixing the PTRDIFF_MAX issue. The memalign() one is fixed by adding a comparison. Signed-off-by: Yann Sionneau <yann@sionneau.net>

This option is enabled for a long time and I see no useful case where we should be incompatible to glibc here.

2010-07-27malloc-simple: Make calloc() return zeroed memorySteven J. Magnani
The 0.9.31 release included a change to malloc-simple to request uninitialized memory from noMMU kernels. Unfortunately, the corresponding calloc() code assumed that memory returned by malloc() was already zeroed, which leads to all kinds of nastiness. Signed-off-by: Steven J.

2009-11-23nommu: use MAP_UNINITIALIZE for mallocsMike Frysinger
Now that the kernel supports MAP_UNINITIALIZE, have the malloc places use it to get real uninitialized memory on no-mmu systems. This avoids a lot of normally useless overhead involved in zeroing out all of the memory (sometimes multiple times). Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>

2003-12-30Rework malloc. The new default implementation is based on dlmalloc from DougEric Andersen
Lea. It is about 2x faster than the old malloc-930716, and behave itself much better -- it will properly release memory back to the system, and it uses a combination of brk() for small allocations and mmap() for larger allocations. -Erik
2003-12-30Update and restore malloc-simple. Slow as molasses, but triviallyEric Andersen
simple and releases memory immediately when asked to do so. -Erik
2002-07-18Miles Bader implemented a new mmap based malloc which is muchEric Andersen
smarter than the old "malloc-simple", and actually works, unlike the old "malloc". So kill the old "malloc-simple" and the old "malloc" and replace them with Miles' new malloc implementation. Update Config files to match. Thanks Miles!
