https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20102 Summary: malloc(3) should document MALLOC_PERTURB_ env option Product: Documentation Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: man-pages AssignedTo: documentation_man-pages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: vapier@xxxxxxxxxx Regression: No setting MALLOC_PERTURB_ in the env will take that number and initialize all malloc's with that value (and the inverse when freeing). this should be documented in malloc(3) (and noted in free(3)). e.g. if you set MALLOC_PERTURB_=123, glibc will do memset((123 ^ 0xff) & 0xff) when doing malloc(), and then glibc will do memset(123 & 0xff) when doing free() -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
