bionic: import heaptracker as chk_malloc
This patch is a rewrite of libc.debug.malloc = 10 (chk_malloc). It provides the same features as the original (poison freed memory, detect heap overruns and underruns), except that it provides more debugging information whenever it detects a problem. In addition to the original features, the new chk_malloc() implementation detects multiple frees within a given range of the last N allocations, N being configurable via the system property libc.debug.malloc.backlog. Finally, this patch keeps track of all outstanding memory allocations. On program exit, we walk that list and report each outstanding allocation. (There is support (not enabled) for a scanner thread periodically walks over the list of outstanding allocations as well as the backlog of recently-freed allocations, checking for heap-usage errors.) Feature overview: 1) memory leaks 2) multiple frees 3) use after free 4) overrun Implementation: -- for each allocation, there is a: 1) stack trace at the time the allocation is made 2) if the memory is freed, there is also a stack trace at the point 3) a front and rear guard (fence) 4) the stack traces are kept together with the allocation -- the following lists and maintained 1) all outstanding memory allocations 3) a backlog of allocations what are freed; when you call free(), instead of actually freed, the allocation is moved to this backlog; 4) when the backlog of allocations gets full, the oldest entry gets evicted from it; at that point, the allocation is checked for overruns or use-after-free errors, and then actually freed. 5) when the program exits, the list of outstanding allocations and the backlog are inspected for errors, then freed; To use this, set the following system properties before running the process or processes you want to inspect: libc.malloc.debug.backlog # defaults to 100 libc.malloc.debug 10 When a problem is detected, you will see the following on logcat for a multiple free: E/libc ( 7233): +++ ALLOCATION 0x404b9278 SIZE 10 BYTES MULTIPLY FREED!
