2003-12-30Rework malloc. The new default implementation is based on dlmalloc from DougEric Andersen
Lea. It is about 2x faster than the old malloc-930716, and behave itself much better -- it will properly release memory back to the system, and it uses a combination of brk() for small allocations and mmap() for larger allocations. -Erik
2003-12-30Update and restore malloc-simple. Slow as molasses, but triviallyEric Andersen
simple and releases memory immediately when asked to do so. -Erik
2002-07-18Miles Bader implemented a new mmap based malloc which is muchEric Andersen
smarter than the old "malloc-simple", and actually works, unlike the old "malloc". So kill the old "malloc-simple" and the old "malloc" and replace them with Miles' new malloc implementation. Update Config files to match. Thanks Miles!

2001-04-25Be more strict with the malloc implementation. Return NULLEric Andersen
when folks do a malloc(0) using malloc-simple. -Erik
2001-03-19Fix up breakage resulting from flipping the sense of some defines. Change fromEric Andersen
defining things to "0" in the disabled case to outright undefining them, lest code that does an "#ifdef FOO" get inadvertantly triggered. Remove now unneeded lines from Rules.mak which makes the command line smaller and avoids redundancy (since this stuff is now pulled in via features.h). -Erik

2001-01-12Patch from James Graves <jgraves@deltamobile.com> to better handle m68k.Eric Andersen
Also fixes 2 very important malloc bugs! Anyone using malloc (esp mmu-less) should update and recompile. -Erik
