Buffer-based memory allocator. More...

Go to the source code of this file.

Functions

int memory_buffer_alloc_init (unsigned char *buf, size_t len)
 Initialize use of stack-based memory allocator.
void memory_buffer_alloc_free (void)
 Free the mutex for thread-safety and clear remaining memory.
void memory_buffer_set_verify (int verify)
 Determine when the allocator should automatically verify the state of the entire chain of headers / meta-data.
void memory_buffer_alloc_status (void)
 Print out the status of the allocated memory (primarily for use after a program should have de-allocated all memory) Prints out a list of 'still allocated' blocks and their stack trace if POLARSSL_MEMORY_BACKTRACE is defined.
int memory_buffer_alloc_verify (void)
 Verifies that all headers in the memory buffer are correct and contain sane values.

Function Documentation

void memory_buffer_alloc_free ( void   )

Free the mutex for thread-safety and clear remaining memory.

Definition at line 569 of file memory_buffer_alloc.c.

int memory_buffer_alloc_init ( unsigned char *  buf,
size_t  len 
)

Initialize use of stack-based memory allocator.

The stack-based allocator does memory management inside the presented buffer and does not call malloc() and free(). It sets the global polarssl_malloc() and polarssl_free() pointers to its own functions. (Provided polarssl_malloc() and polarssl_free() are thread-safe if POLARSSL_THREADING_C is defined)

Note:
This code is not optimized and provides a straight-forward implementation of a stack-based memory allocator.
Parameters:
bufbuffer to use as heap
lensize of the buffer
Returns:
0 if successful

Definition at line 545 of file memory_buffer_alloc.c.

void memory_buffer_alloc_status ( void   )

Print out the status of the allocated memory (primarily for use after a program should have de-allocated all memory) Prints out a list of 'still allocated' blocks and their stack trace if POLARSSL_MEMORY_BACKTRACE is defined.

Definition at line 506 of file memory_buffer_alloc.c.

int memory_buffer_alloc_verify ( void   )

Verifies that all headers in the memory buffer are correct and contain sane values.

Helps debug buffer-overflow errors.

Prints out first failure if POLARSSL_MEMORY_DEBUG is defined. Prints out full header information if POLARSSL_MEMORY_DEBUG_HEADERS is defined. (Includes stack trace information for each block if POLARSSL_MEMORY_BACKTRACE is defined as well).

Returns:
0 if verified, 1 otherwise

Definition at line 500 of file memory_buffer_alloc.c.

void memory_buffer_set_verify ( int  verify )

Determine when the allocator should automatically verify the state of the entire chain of headers / meta-data.

(Default: MEMORY_VERIFY_NONE)

Parameters:
verifyOne of MEMORY_VERIFY_NONE, MEMORY_VERIFY_ALLOC, MEMORY_VERIFY_FREE or MEMORY_VERIFY_ALWAYS

Definition at line 495 of file memory_buffer_alloc.c.
