[PATCH] mcheck.3: ATTRIBUTES: Note functions that aren't thread-safe

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



mcheck() and mprobe() match glibc markings.
>From research, We think mcheck_pedantic() and mcheck_check_all() are not
thread-safe. But, there is not markings of mcheck_pedantic() and
mcheck_check_all() in glibc document.
- mcheck:           MT-Unsafe race:mcheck const:malloc_hooks
- mcheck_pedantic:  MT-Unsafe race:mcheck const:malloc_hooks
- mcheck_check_all: MT-Unsafe race:mcheck const:malloc_hooks
- mprobe:           MT-Unsafe race:mcheck const:malloc_hooks
