7 * Version 2.8.6 Wed Aug 29 06:57:58 2012 Doug Lea
8  Note: There may be an updated version of this malloc obtainable at
9  ftp://gee.cs.oswego.edu/pub/misc/malloc.c
10  Check before installing!
11 
12 * Quickstart
13 
14  This library is all in one file to simplify the most common usage:
15  ftp it, compile it (-O3), and link it into another program. All of
16  the compile-time options default to reasonable values for use on
17  most platforms. You might later want to step through various
18  compile-time and dynamic tuning options.
19 
20  For convenience, an include file for code using this malloc is at:
21  ftp://gee.cs.oswego.edu/pub/misc/malloc-2.8.6.h
22  You don't really need this .h file unless you call functions not
23  defined in your system include files. The .h file contains only the
24  excerpts from this file needed for using this malloc on ANSI C/C++
25  systems, so long as you haven't changed compile-time options about
26  naming and tuning parameters. If you do, then you can create your
27  own malloc.h that does include all settings by cutting at the point
28  indicated below. Note that you may already by default be using a C
29  library containing a malloc that is based on some version of this
30  malloc (for example in linux). You might still want to use the one
31  in this file to customize settings or to avoid overheads associated
32  with library versions.
33 
34 * Vital statistics:
35 
36  Supported pointer/size_t representation: 4 or 8 bytes
37  size_t MUST be an unsigned type of the same width as
38  pointers. (If you are using an ancient system that declares
39  size_t as a signed type, or need it to be a different width
40  than pointers, you can use a previous release of this malloc
41  (e.g. 2.7.2) supporting these.)
42 
43  Alignment: 8 bytes (minimum)
44  This suffices for nearly all current machines and C compilers.
45  However, you can define MALLOC_ALIGNMENT to be wider than this
46  if necessary (up to 128bytes), at the expense of using more space.
47 
48  Minimum overhead per allocated chunk: 4 or 8 bytes (if 4byte sizes)
49  8 or 16 bytes (if 8byte sizes)
50  Each malloced chunk has a hidden word of overhead holding size
51  and status information, and additional cross-check word
52  if FOOTERS is defined.
53 
54  Minimum allocated size: 4-byte ptrs: 16 bytes (including overhead)
55  8-byte ptrs: 32 bytes (including overhead)
56 
57  Even a request for zero bytes (i.e., malloc(0)) returns a
58  pointer to something of the minimum allocatable size.
59  The maximum overhead wastage (i.e., number of extra bytes
60  allocated than were requested in malloc) is less than or equal
61  to the minimum size, except for requests >= mmap_threshold that
62  are serviced via mmap(), where the worst case wastage is about
63  32 bytes plus the remainder from a system page (the minimal
64  mmap unit); typically 4096 or 8192 bytes.
65 
66  Security: static-safe; optionally more or less
67  The "security" of malloc refers to the ability of malicious
68  code to accentuate the effects of errors (for example, freeing
69  space that is not currently malloc'ed or overwriting past the
70  ends of chunks) in code that calls malloc. This malloc
71  guarantees not to modify any memory locations below the base of
72  heap, i.e., static variables, even in the presence of usage
73  errors. The routines additionally detect most improper frees
74  and reallocs. All this holds as long as the static bookkeeping
75  for malloc itself is not corrupted by some other means. This
76  is only one aspect of security -- these checks do not, and
77  cannot, detect all possible programming errors.
78 
79  If FOOTERS is defined nonzero, then each allocated chunk
80  carries an additional check word to verify that it was malloced
81  from its space. These check words are the same within each
82  execution of a program using malloc, but differ across
83  executions, so externally crafted fake chunks cannot be
84  freed. This improves security by rejecting frees/reallocs that
85  could corrupt heap memory, in addition to the checks preventing
86  writes to statics that are always on. This may further improve
87  security at the expense of time and space overhead. (Note that
88  FOOTERS may also be worth using with MSPACES.)
89 
90  By default detected errors cause the program to abort (calling
91  "abort()"). You can override this to instead proceed past
92  errors by defining PROCEED_ON_ERROR. In this case, a bad free
93  has no effect, and a malloc that encounters a bad address
94  caused by user overwrites will ignore the bad address by
95  dropping pointers and indices to all known memory. This may
96  be appropriate for programs that should continue if at all
97  possible in the face of programming errors, although they may
98  run out of memory because dropped memory is never reclaimed.
99 
100  If you don't like either of these options, you can define
101  CORRUPTION_ERROR_ACTION and USAGE_ERROR_ACTION to do anything
102  else. And if if you are sure that your program using malloc has
103  no errors or vulnerabilities, you can define INSECURE to 1,
104  which might (or might not) provide a small performance improvement.
105 
106  It is also possible to limit the maximum total allocatable
107  space, using malloc_set_footprint_limit. This is not
108  designed as a security feature in itself (calls to set limits
109  are not screened or privileged), but may be useful as one
110  aspect of a secure implementation.
111 
112  Thread-safety: NOT thread-safe unless USE_LOCKS defined non-zero
113  When USE_LOCKS is defined, each public call to malloc, free,
114  etc is surrounded with a lock. By default, this uses a plain
115  pthread mutex, win32 critical section, or a spin-lock if if
116  available for the platform and not disabled by setting
117  USE_SPIN_LOCKS=0. However, if USE_RECURSIVE_LOCKS is defined,
118  recursive versions are used instead (which are not required for
119  base functionality but may be needed in layered extensions).
120  Using a global lock is not especially fast, and can be a major
121  bottleneck. It is designed only to provide minimal protection
122  in concurrent environments, and to provide a basis for
123  extensions. If you are using malloc in a concurrent program,
124  consider instead using nedmalloc
125  (http://www.nedprod.com/programs/portable/nedmalloc/) or
126  ptmalloc (See http://www.malloc.de), which are derived from
127  versions of this malloc.
128 
129  System requirements: Any combination of MORECORE and/or MMAP/MUNMAP
130  This malloc can use unix sbrk or any emulation (invoked using
131  the CALL_MORECORE macro) and/or mmap/munmap or any emulation
132  (invoked using CALL_MMAP/CALL_MUNMAP) to get and release system
133  memory. On most unix systems, it tends to work best if both
134  MORECORE and MMAP are enabled. On Win32, it uses emulations
135  based on VirtualAlloc. It also uses common C library functions
136  like memset.
137 
138  Compliance: I believe it is compliant with the Single Unix Specification
139  (See http://www.unix.org). Also SVID/XPG, ANSI C, and probably
140  others as well.
141 
142 * Overview of algorithms
143 
144  This is not the fastest, most space-conserving, most portable, or
145  most tunable malloc ever written. However it is among the fastest
146  while also being among the most space-conserving, portable and
147  tunable. Consistent balance across these factors results in a good
148  general-purpose allocator for malloc-intensive programs.
149 
150  In most ways, this malloc is a best-fit allocator. Generally, it
151  chooses the best-fitting existing chunk for a request, with ties
152  broken in approximately least-recently-used order. (This strategy
153  normally maintains low fragmentation.) However, for requests less
154  than 256bytes, it deviates from best-fit when there is not an
155  exactly fitting available chunk by preferring to use space adjacent
156  to that used for the previous small request, as well as by breaking
157  ties in approximately most-recently-used order. (These enhance
158  locality of series of small allocations.) And for very large requests
159  (>= 256Kb by default), it relies on system memory mapping
160  facilities, if supported. (This helps avoid carrying around and
161  possibly fragmenting memory used only for large chunks.)
162 
163  All operations (except malloc_stats and mallinfo) have execution
164  times that are bounded by a constant factor of the number of bits in
165  a size_t, not counting any clearing in calloc or copying in realloc,
166  or actions surrounding MORECORE and MMAP that have times
167  proportional to the number of non-contiguous regions returned by
168  system allocation routines, which is often just 1. In real-time
169  applications, you can optionally suppress segment traversals using
170  NO_SEGMENT_TRAVERSAL, which assures bounded execution even when
171  system allocators return non-contiguous spaces, at the typical
172  expense of carrying around more memory and increased fragmentation.
173 
174  The implementation is not very modular and seriously overuses
175  macros. Perhaps someday all C compilers will do as good a job
176  inlining modular code as can now be done by brute-force expansion,
177  but now, enough of them seem not to.
178 
179  Some compilers issue a lot of warnings about code that is
180  dead/unreachable only on some platforms, and also about intentional
181  uses of negation on unsigned types. All known cases of each can be
182  ignored.
183 
184  For a longer but out of date high-level description, see
185  http://gee.cs.oswego.edu/dl/html/malloc.html
186 
187 * MSPACES
188  If MSPACES is defined, then in addition to malloc, free, etc.,
189  this file also defines mspace_malloc, mspace_free, etc. These
190  are versions of malloc routines that take an "mspace" argument
191  obtained using create_mspace, to control all internal bookkeeping.
192  If ONLY_MSPACES is defined, only these versions are compiled.
193  So if you would like to use this allocator for only some allocations,
194  and your system malloc for others, you can compile with
195  ONLY_MSPACES and then do something like...
196  static mspace mymspace = create_mspace(0,0); // for example
197  #define mymalloc(bytes) mspace_malloc(mymspace, bytes)
198 
199  (Note: If you only need one instance of an mspace, you can instead
200  use "USE_DL_PREFIX" to relabel the global malloc.)
201 
202  You can similarly create thread-local allocators by storing
203  mspaces as thread-locals. For example:
204  static __thread mspace tlms = 0;
205  void* tlmalloc(size_t bytes) {
206  if (tlms == 0) tlms = create_mspace(0, 0);
207  return mspace_malloc(tlms, bytes);
208  }
209  void tlfree(void* mem) { mspace_free(tlms, mem); }
210 
211  Unless FOOTERS is defined, each mspace is completely independent.
212  You cannot allocate from one and free to another (although
213  conformance is only weakly checked, so usage errors are not always
214  caught). If FOOTERS is defined, then each chunk carries around a tag
215  indicating its originating mspace, and frees are directed to their
216  originating spaces. Normally, this requires use of locks.
217 
218  ------------------------- Compile-time options ---------------------------
219 
220 Be careful in setting #define values for numerical constants of type
221 size_t. On some systems, literal values are not automatically extended
222 to size_t precision unless they are explicitly casted. You can also
223 use the symbolic values MAX_SIZE_T, SIZE_T_ONE, etc below.
224 
225 WIN32 default: defined if _WIN32 defined
226  Defining WIN32 sets up defaults for MS environment and compilers.
227  Otherwise defaults are for unix. Beware that there seem to be some
228  cases where this malloc might not be a pure drop-in replacement for
229  Win32 malloc: Random-looking failures from Win32 GDI API's (eg;
230  SetDIBits()) may be due to bugs in some video driver implementations
231  when pixel buffers are malloc()ed, and the region spans more than
232  one VirtualAlloc()ed region. Because dlmalloc uses a small (64Kb)
233  default granularity, pixel buffers may straddle virtual allocation
234  regions more often than when using the Microsoft allocator. You can
235  avoid this by using VirtualAlloc() and VirtualFree() for all pixel
236  buffers rather than using malloc(). If this is not possible,
237  recompile this malloc with a larger DEFAULT_GRANULARITY. Note:
238  in cases where MSC and gcc (cygwin) are known to differ on WIN32,
239  conditions use _MSC_VER to distinguish them.
240 
241 DLMALLOC_EXPORT default: extern
242  Defines how public APIs are declared. If you want to export via a
243  Windows DLL, you might define this as
244  #define DLMALLOC_EXPORT extern __declspec(dllexport)
245  If you want a POSIX ELF shared object, you might use
246  #define DLMALLOC_EXPORT extern __attribute__((visibility("default")))
247 
248 MALLOC_ALIGNMENT default: (size_t)(2 * sizeof(void *))
249  Controls the minimum alignment for malloc'ed chunks. It must be a
250  power of two and at least 8, even on machines for which smaller
251  alignments would suffice. It may be defined as larger than this
252  though. Note however that code and data structures are optimized for
253  the case of 8-byte alignment.
254 
255 MSPACES default: 0 (false)
256  If true, compile in support for independent allocation spaces.
257  This is only supported if HAVE_MMAP is true.
258 
259 ONLY_MSPACES default: 0 (false)
260  If true, only compile in mspace versions, not regular versions.
261 
262 USE_LOCKS default: 0 (false)
263  Causes each call to each public routine to be surrounded with
264  pthread or WIN32 mutex lock/unlock. (If set true, this can be
265  overridden on a per-mspace basis for mspace versions.) If set to a
266  non-zero value other than 1, locks are used, but their
267  implementation is left out, so lock functions must be supplied manually,
268  as described below.
269 
270 USE_SPIN_LOCKS default: 1 iff USE_LOCKS and spin locks available
271  If true, uses custom spin locks for locking. This is currently
272  supported only gcc >= 4.1, older gccs on x86 platforms, and recent
273  MS compilers. Otherwise, posix locks or win32 critical sections are
274  used.
275 
276 USE_RECURSIVE_LOCKS default: not defined
277  If defined nonzero, uses recursive (aka reentrant) locks, otherwise
278  uses plain mutexes. This is not required for malloc proper, but may
279  be needed for layered allocators such as nedmalloc.
280 
281 LOCK_AT_FORK default: not defined
282  If defined nonzero, performs pthread_atfork upon initialization
283  to initialize child lock while holding parent lock. The implementation
284  assumes that pthread locks (not custom locks) are being used. In other
285  cases, you may need to customize the implementation.
286 
287 FOOTERS default: 0
288  If true, provide extra checking and dispatching by placing
289  information in the footers of allocated chunks. This adds
290  space and time overhead.
291 
292 INSECURE default: 0
293  If true, omit checks for usage errors and heap space overwrites.
294 
295 USE_DL_PREFIX default: NOT defined
296  Causes compiler to prefix all public routines with the string 'dl'.
297  This can be useful when you only want to use this malloc in one part
298  of a program, using your regular system malloc elsewhere.
299 
300 MALLOC_INSPECT_ALL default: NOT defined
301  If defined, compiles malloc_inspect_all and mspace_inspect_all, that
302  perform traversal of all heap space. Unless access to these
303  functions is otherwise restricted, you probably do not want to
304  include them in secure implementations.
305 
306 DLM_ABORT default: defined as abort()
307  Defines how to abort on failed checks. On most systems, a failed
308  check cannot die with an "assert" or even print an informative
309  message, because the underlying print routines in turn call malloc,
310  which will fail again. Generally, the best policy is to simply call
311  abort(). It's not very useful to do more than this because many
312  errors due to overwriting will show up as address faults (null, odd
313  addresses etc) rather than malloc-triggered checks, so will also
314  abort. Also, most compilers know that abort() does not return, so
315  can better optimize code conditionally calling it.
316 
317 PROCEED_ON_ERROR default: defined as 0 (false)
318  Controls whether detected bad addresses cause them to bypassed
319  rather than aborting. If set, detected bad arguments to free and
320  realloc are ignored. And all bookkeeping information is zeroed out
321  upon a detected overwrite of freed heap space, thus losing the
322  ability to ever return it from malloc again, but enabling the
323  application to proceed. If PROCEED_ON_ERROR is defined, the
324  static variable malloc_corruption_error_count is compiled in
325  and can be examined to see if errors have occurred. This option
326  generates slower code than the default abort policy.
327 
328 DEBUG default: NOT defined
329  The DEBUG setting is mainly intended for people trying to modify
330  this code or diagnose problems when porting to new platforms.
331  However, it may also be able to better isolate user errors than just
332  using runtime checks. The assertions in the check routines spell
333  out in more detail the assumptions and invariants underlying the
334  algorithms. The checking is fairly extensive, and will slow down
335  execution noticeably. Calling malloc_stats or mallinfo with DEBUG
336  set will attempt to check every non-mmapped allocated and free chunk
337  in the course of computing the summaries.
338 
339 DLM_ABORT_ON_ASSERT_FAILURE default: defined as 1 (true)
340  Debugging assertion failures can be nearly impossible if your
341  version of the assert macro causes malloc to be called, which will
342  lead to a cascade of further failures, blowing the runtime stack.
343  DLM_ABORT_ON_ASSERT_FAILURE cause assertions failures to call abort(),
344  which will usually make debugging easier.
345 
346 MALLOC_FAILURE_ACTION default: sets errno to ENOMEM, or no-op on win32
347  The action to take before "return 0" when malloc fails to be able to
348  return memory because there is none available.
349 
350 HAVE_MORECORE default: 1 (true) unless win32 or ONLY_MSPACES
351  True if this system supports sbrk or an emulation of it.
352 
353 MORECORE default: sbrk
354  The name of the sbrk-style system routine to call to obtain more
355  memory. See below for guidance on writing custom MORECORE
356  functions. The type of the argument to sbrk/MORECORE varies across
357  systems. It cannot be size_t, because it supports negative
358  arguments, so it is normally the signed type of the same width as
359  size_t (sometimes declared as "intptr_t"). It doesn't much matter
360  though. Internally, we only call it with arguments less than half
361  the max value of a size_t, which should work across all reasonable
362  possibilities, although sometimes generating compiler warnings.
363 
364 MORECORE_CONTIGUOUS default: 1 (true) if HAVE_MORECORE
365  If true, take advantage of fact that consecutive calls to MORECORE
366  with positive arguments always return contiguous increasing
367  addresses. This is true of unix sbrk. It does not hurt too much to
368  set it true anyway, since malloc copes with non-contiguities.
369  Setting it false when definitely non-contiguous saves time
370  and possibly wasted space it would take to discover this though.
371 
372 MORECORE_CANNOT_TRIM default: NOT defined
373  True if MORECORE cannot release space back to the system when given
374  negative arguments. This is generally necessary only if you are
375  using a hand-crafted MORECORE function that cannot handle negative
376  arguments.
377 
378 NO_SEGMENT_TRAVERSAL default: 0
379  If non-zero, suppresses traversals of memory segments
380  returned by either MORECORE or CALL_MMAP. This disables
381  merging of segments that are contiguous, and selectively
382  releasing them to the OS if unused, but bounds execution times.
383 
384 HAVE_MMAP default: 1 (true)
385  True if this system supports mmap or an emulation of it. If so, and
386  HAVE_MORECORE is not true, MMAP is used for all system
387  allocation. If set and HAVE_MORECORE is true as well, MMAP is
388  primarily used to directly allocate very large blocks. It is also
389  used as a backup strategy in cases where MORECORE fails to provide
390  space from system. Note: A single call to MUNMAP is assumed to be
391  able to unmap memory that may have be allocated using multiple calls
392  to MMAP, so long as they are adjacent.
393 
394 HAVE_MREMAP default: 1 on linux, else 0
395  If true realloc() uses mremap() to re-allocate large blocks and
396  extend or shrink allocation spaces.
397 
398 MMAP_CLEARS default: 1 except on WINCE.
399  True if mmap clears memory so calloc doesn't need to. This is true
400  for standard unix mmap using /dev/zero and on WIN32 except for WINCE.
401 
402 USE_BUILTIN_FFS default: 0 (i.e., not used)
403  Causes malloc to use the builtin ffs() function to compute indices.
404  Some compilers may recognize and intrinsify ffs to be faster than the
405  supplied C version. Also, the case of x86 using gcc is special-cased
406  to an asm instruction, so is already as fast as it can be, and so
407  this setting has no effect. Similarly for Win32 under recent MS compilers.
408  (On most x86s, the asm version is only slightly faster than the C version.)
409 
410 malloc_getpagesize default: derive from system includes, or 4096.
411  The system page size. To the extent possible, this malloc manages
412  memory from the system in page-size units. This may be (and
413  usually is) a function rather than a constant. This is ignored
414  if WIN32, where page size is determined using getSystemInfo during
415  initialization.
416 
417 USE_DEV_RANDOM default: 0 (i.e., not used)
418  Causes malloc to use /dev/random to initialize secure magic seed for
419  stamping footers. Otherwise, the current time is used.
420 
421 NO_MALLINFO default: 0
422  If defined, don't compile "mallinfo". This can be a simple way
423  of dealing with mismatches between system declarations and
424  those in this file.
425 
426 MALLINFO_FIELD_TYPE default: size_t
427  The type of the fields in the mallinfo struct. This was originally
428  defined as "int" in SVID etc, but is more usefully defined as
429  size_t. The value is used only if HAVE_USR_INCLUDE_MALLOC_H is not set
430 
431 NO_MALLOC_STATS default: 0
432  If defined, don't compile "malloc_stats". This avoids calls to
433  fprintf and bringing in stdio dependencies you might not want.
434 
435 REALLOC_ZERO_BYTES_FREES default: not defined
436  This should be set if a call to realloc with zero bytes should
437  be the same as a call to free. Some people think it should. Otherwise,
438  since this malloc returns a unique pointer for malloc(0), so does
439  realloc(p, 0).
440 
441 LACKS_UNISTD_H, LACKS_FCNTL_H, LACKS_SYS_PARAM_H, LACKS_SYS_MMAN_H
442 LACKS_STRINGS_H, LACKS_STRING_H, LACKS_SYS_TYPES_H, LACKS_ERRNO_H
443 LACKS_STDLIB_H LACKS_SCHED_H LACKS_TIME_H default: NOT defined unless on WIN32
444  Define these if your system does not have these header files.
445  You might need to manually insert some of the declarations they provide.
446 
447 DEFAULT_GRANULARITY default: page size if MORECORE_CONTIGUOUS,
448  system_info.dwAllocationGranularity in WIN32,
449  otherwise 64K.
450  Also settable using mallopt(M_GRANULARITY, x)
451  The unit for allocating and deallocating memory from the system. On
452  most systems with contiguous MORECORE, there is no reason to
453  make this more than a page. However, systems with MMAP tend to
454  either require or encourage larger granularities. You can increase
455  this value to prevent system allocation functions to be called so
456  often, especially if they are slow. The value must be at least one
457  page and must be a power of two. Setting to 0 causes initialization
458  to either page size or win32 region size. (Note: In previous
459  versions of malloc, the equivalent of this option was called
460  "TOP_PAD")
461 
462 DEFAULT_TRIM_THRESHOLD default: 2MB
463  Also settable using mallopt(M_TRIM_THRESHOLD, x)
464  The maximum amount of unused top-most memory to keep before
465  releasing via malloc_trim in free(). Automatic trimming is mainly
466  useful in long-lived programs using contiguous MORECORE. Because
467  trimming via sbrk can be slow on some systems, and can sometimes be
468  wasteful (in cases where programs immediately afterward allocate
469  more large chunks) the value should be high enough so that your
470  overall system performance would improve by releasing this much
471  memory. As a rough guide, you might set to a value close to the
472  average size of a process (program) running on your system.
473  Releasing this much memory would allow such a process to run in
474  memory. Generally, it is worth tuning trim thresholds when a
475  program undergoes phases where several large chunks are allocated
476  and released in ways that can reuse each other's storage, perhaps
477  mixed with phases where there are no such chunks at all. The trim
478  value must be greater than page size to have any useful effect. To
479  disable trimming completely, you can set to MAX_SIZE_T. Note that the trick
480  some people use of mallocing a huge space and then freeing it at
481  program startup, in an attempt to reserve system memory, doesn't
482  have the intended effect under automatic trimming, since that memory
483  will immediately be returned to the system.
484 
485 DEFAULT_MMAP_THRESHOLD default: 256K
486  Also settable using mallopt(M_MMAP_THRESHOLD, x)
487  The request size threshold for using MMAP to directly service a
488  request. Requests of at least this size that cannot be allocated
489  using already-existing space will be serviced via mmap. (If enough
490  normal freed space already exists it is used instead.) Using mmap
491  segregates relatively large chunks of memory so that they can be
492  individually obtained and released from the host system. A request
493  serviced through mmap is never reused by any other request (at least
494  not directly; the system may just so happen to remap successive
495  requests to the same locations). Segregating space in this way has
496  the benefits that: Mmapped space can always be individually released
497  back to the system, which helps keep the system level memory demands
498  of a long-lived program low. Also, mapped memory doesn't become
499  `locked' between other chunks, as can happen with normally allocated
500  chunks, which means that even trimming via malloc_trim would not
501  release them. However, it has the disadvantage that the space
502  cannot be reclaimed, consolidated, and then used to service later
503  requests, as happens with normal chunks. The advantages of mmap
504  nearly always outweigh disadvantages for "large" chunks, but the
505  value of "large" may vary across systems. The default is an
506  empirically derived value that works well in most systems. You can
507  disable mmap by setting to MAX_SIZE_T.
508 
509 MAX_RELEASE_CHECK_RATE default: 4095 unless not HAVE_MMAP
510  The number of consolidated frees between checks to release
511  unused segments when freeing. When using non-contiguous segments,
512  especially with multiple mspaces, checking only for topmost space
513  doesn't always suffice to trigger trimming. To compensate for this,
514  free() will, with a period of MAX_RELEASE_CHECK_RATE (or the
515  current number of segments, if greater) try to release unused
516  segments to the OS when freeing chunks that result in
517  consolidation. The best value for this parameter is a compromise
518  between slowing down frees with relatively costly checks that
519  rarely trigger versus holding on to unused memory. To effectively
520  disable, set to MAX_SIZE_T. This may lead to a very slight speed
521  improvement at the expense of carrying around more memory.

1116  independent elements that can hold contents of size elem_size, each
1117  of which starts out cleared, and can be independently freed,

1124  probably the most typical usage). If it is null, the returned array
1125  is itself dynamically allocated and should also be freed when it is
1126  no longer needed. Otherwise, the chunks array must be of at least
1127  n_elements in length. It is filled in with the pointers to the

1190 
1191  independent_comalloc can be used to speed up allocation in cases
1192  where several structs or objects must always be allocated at the
