/*
Default header file for malloc-2.8.x, written by Doug Lea
and released to the public domain, as explained at
http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/
This header is for ANSI C/C++ only. You can set any of
the following #defines before including:
* If USE_DL_PREFIX is defined, it is assumed that malloc.c
was also compiled with this option, so all routines
have names starting with "dl".
* If HAVE_USR_INCLUDE_MALLOC_H is defined, it is assumed that this
file will be #included AFTER <malloc.h>. This is needed only if
your system defines a struct mallinfo that is incompatible with the
standard one declared here. Otherwise, you can include this file
INSTEAD of your system system <malloc.h>. At least on ANSI, all
declarations should be compatible with system versions
* If MSPACES is defined, declarations for mspace versions are included.

malloc(size_t n)
Returns a pointer to a newly allocated chunk of at least n bytes, or
null if no space is available, in which case errno is set to ENOMEM
on ANSI C systems.
If n is zero, malloc returns a minimum-sized chunk. (The minimum
size is 16 bytes on most 32bit systems, and 32 bytes on 64bit
systems.) Note that size_t is an unsigned type, so calls with
arguments that would be negative if signed are interpreted as
requests for huge amounts of space, which will often fail. The
maximum supported value of n differs across systems, but is in all
cases less than the maximum representable value of a size_t.

free(void* p)
Releases the chunk of memory pointed to by p, that had been previously
allocated using malloc or a related routine such as realloc.
It has no effect if p is null. If p was not malloced or already
freed, free(p) will by default cuase the current program to abort.

realloc(void* p, size_t n)
Returns a pointer to a chunk of size n that contains the same data
as does chunk p up to the minimum of (n, p's size) bytes, or null
if no space is available.
The returned pointer may or may not be the same as p. The algorithm
prefers extending p in most cases when possible, otherwise it
employs the equivalent of a malloc-copy-free sequence.
If p is null, realloc is equivalent to malloc.
If space is not available, realloc returns null, errno is set (if on
ANSI) and p is NOT freed.
if n is for fewer bytes than already held by p, the newly unused
space is lopped off and freed if possible. realloc with a size
argument of zero (re)allocates a minimum-sized chunk.
The old unix realloc convention of allowing the last-free'd chunk
to be used as an argument to realloc is not supported.

available if n is greater than p's current allocated size, or n is
less than or equal to p's size). This may be used instead of plain
realloc if an alternative allocation strategy is needed upon failure
to expand space; for example, reallocation of a buffer that must be
memory-aligned or cleared. You can use realloc_in_place to trigger
these alternatives only when needed.
Returns p if successful; otherwise null.

Returns a pointer to a newly allocated chunk of n bytes, aligned

not a power of two, the nearest greater power is used.
8-byte alignment is guaranteed by normal malloc calls, so don't

purposes. Traversal does not include include chunks that have been
directly memory mapped. Each reported region begins at the start
address, and continues up to but not including the end address. The

used_bytes is zero, the region is unallocated. The handler is
invoked with the given callback argument. If locks are defined, they
are held during the entire traversal. It is a bad idea to invoke
other malloc functions from within the handler.
For example, to count the number of in-use chunks with size greater
than 1000, you could write:
static int count = 0;
void count_chunks(void* start, void* end, size_t used, void* arg) {
if (used >= 1000) ++count;

independent_calloc(size_t n_elements, size_t element_size, void* chunks[]);
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 freed when it is no longer needed. This can be
done all at once using bulk_free.
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)
return first;
}
*/
void **dlindependent_calloc(size_t, size_t, void **);
/*
independent_comalloc(size_t n_elements, size_t sizes[], void* chunks[]);
independent_comalloc allocates, all at once, a set of n_elements
chunks with sizes indicated in the "sizes" array. It returns
an array of pointers to these elements, each of which 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). 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_comalloc 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 freed when it is no longer needed. This can be
done all at once using bulk_free.
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:
struct Head { ... }
struct Foot { ... }
void send_message(char* msg) {
int msglen = strlen(msg);
size_t sizes[3] = { sizeof(struct Head), msglen, sizeof(struct Foot) };
void* chunks[3];
if (independent_comalloc(3, sizes, chunks) == 0)
die();
struct Head* head = (struct Head*)(chunks[0]);
char* body = (char*)(chunks[1]);
struct Foot* foot = (struct Foot*)(chunks[2]);
// ...
}
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.

bulk_free(void* array[], size_t n_elements)

mspaces are not freed or cleared, and the count of all such pointers
is returned. For large arrays of pointers with poor locality, it
may be worthwhile to sort this array before calling bulk_free.

malloc_trim(size_t pad);
If possible, gives memory back to the system (via negative arguments
to sbrk) if there is unused memory at the `high' end of the malloc
pool or in unused MMAP segments. You can call this after freeing
large blocks of memory to potentially reduce the system-level memory
requirements of a program. However, it cannot guarantee to reduce
memory. Under some allocation patterns, some large free blocks of
memory will be locked between two used chunks, so they cannot be
given back to the system.
The `pad' argument to malloc_trim represents the amount of free
trailing space to leave untrimmed. If this argument is zero, only
the minimum amount of memory to maintain internal data structures
will be left. Non-zero arguments can be supplied to maintain enough
trailing space to service future expected allocations without having
to re-obtain memory from the system.
Malloc_trim returns 1 if it actually released any memory, else 0.

number of bytes allocated via malloc (or realloc, etc) but not yet
freed. Note that this is the number of bytes allocated, not the
number requested. It will be larger than the number requested
because of alignment and bookkeeping overhead. Because it includes
alignment wastage as being in use, this figure may be greater than
zero even when no user-level chunks are allocated.
The reported current and maximum system memory can be inaccurate if
a program makes other calls to system memory allocation functions
(normally sbrk) outside of malloc.
