Description: security-focused general purpose memory allocator
|
|
This is a security-focused general purpose memory allocator providing the
|
|
malloc API along with various extensions. It provides substantial hardening
|
|
against heap corruption vulnerabilities. The security-focused design also
|
|
leads to much less metadata overhead and memory waste from fragmentation than
|
|
a more traditional allocator design. It aims to provide decent overall
|
|
performance with a focus on long-term performance and memory usage rather than
|
|
allocator micro-benchmarks. It offers scalability via a configurable number of
|
|
entirely independently arenas, with the internal locking within arenas further
|
|
divided up per size class.
|
|
.
|
|
It can be added as a preloaded library using /etc/ld.so.preload.
