rust: alloc: implement `Cmalloc` in module allocator_test

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

 



From: Danilo Krummrich <dakr@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit dd09538fb4093176a818fcecd45114430cc5840f upstream.

So far the kernel's `Box` and `Vec` types can't be used by userspace
test cases, since all users of those types (e.g. `CString`) use kernel
allocators for instantiation.

In order to allow userspace test cases to make use of such types as
well, implement the `Cmalloc` allocator within the allocator_test module
and type alias all kernel allocators to `Cmalloc`. The `Cmalloc`
allocator uses libc's `realloc()` function as allocator backend.
