## Resumo da Ordem de Alocação <a href="#libc_malloc" id="libc_malloc"></a>

(Nenhuma verificação é explicada neste resumo e alguns casos foram omitidos por brevidade)

1. `__libc_malloc` tenta obter um chunk do tcache, se não conseguir, chama `_int_malloc`
2. `_int_malloc` :&#x20;
1. Tenta gerar a arena se não houver nenhuma
2. Se houver algum chunk de fast bin do tamanho correto, use-o
1. Preencha o tcache com outros chunks rápidos
3. Se houver algum chunk de small bin do tamanho correto, use-o
1. Preencha o tcache com outros chunks desse tamanho
4. Se o tamanho solicitado não for para small bins, consolide fast bin em unsorted bin
5. Verifique o unsorted bin, use o primeiro chunk com espaço suficiente
1. Se o chunk encontrado for maior, divida-o para retornar uma parte e adicione o restante de volta ao unsorted bin
2. Se um chunk for do mesmo tamanho que o tamanho solicitado, use-o para preencher o tcache em vez de retorná-lo (até que o tcache esteja cheio, então retorne o próximo)
3. Para cada chunk de tamanho menor verificado, coloque-o em seu respectivo small ou large bin
6. Verifique o large bin no índice do tamanho solicitado
1. Comece a procurar a partir do primeiro chunk que é maior que o tamanho solicitado, se algum for encontrado, retorne-o e adicione os restos ao small bin
7. Verifique os large bins a partir dos próximos índices até o final
1. A partir do próximo índice maior, verifique se há algum chunk, divida o primeiro chunk encontrado para usá-lo para o tamanho solicitado e adicione o restante ao unsorted bin
8. Se nada for encontrado nos bins anteriores, obtenha um chunk do top chunk
9. Se o top chunk não for grande o suficiente, amplie-o com `sysmalloc`

## \_\_libc\_malloc <a href="#libc_malloc" id="libc_malloc"></a>

A função `malloc` na verdade chama `__libc_malloc`. Esta função verificará o tcache para ver se há algum chunk disponível do tamanho desejado. Se houver, usará; se não, verificará se é uma única thread e, nesse caso, chamará `_int_malloc` na arena principal, e se não, chamará `_int_malloc` na arena da thread.

<details>

<summary>Código __libc_malloc</summary>
```c
// From https://github.com/bminor/glibc/blob/master/malloc/malloc.c

#if IS_IN (libc)

__libc_malloc (size_t bytes)
{

if (!__malloc_initialized)

#if USE_TCACHE
/* int_free also calls request2size, be careful to not pad twice.  */
size_t tbytes = checked_request2size (bytes);
if (tbytes == 0)
{
__set_errno (ENOMEM);
return NULL;
}
size_t tc_idx = csize2tidx (tbytes);

MAYBE_INIT_TCACHE ();

DIAG_PUSH_NEEDS_COMMENT;
if (tc_idx < mp_.tcache_bins

&& tcache->counts[tc_idx] > 0)
{

return tag_new_usable (victim);
}
DIAG_POP_NEEDS_COMMENT;
#endif

if (SINGLE_THREAD_P)

}

/* Retry with another arena only if we were able to find a usable arena
before.  */
if (!victim && ar_ptr != NULL)
{
LIBC_PROBE (memory_malloc_retry, 1, bytes);

assert (!victim || chunk_is_mmapped (mem2chunk (victim)) ||

return victim;

```
</details>

Observe como ele sempre marcará o ponteiro retornado com `tag_new_usable`, do código:
```c
void *tag_new_usable (void *ptr)

Allocate a new random color and use it to color the user region of
a chunk; this may include data from the subsequent chunk's header
if tagging is sufficiently fine grained.  Returns PTR suitably
recolored for accessing the memory there.
```
## \_int\_malloc <a href="#int_malloc" id="int_malloc"></a>

Esta é a função que aloca memória usando os outros bins e o top chunk.

* Início

Ela começa definindo algumas variáveis e obtendo o tamanho real que o espaço de memória solicitado precisa ter:

### Arena

No improvável caso de não haver arenas utilizáveis, ele usa `sysmalloc` para obter um pedaço de `mmap`:

<summary>_int_malloc not arena</summary>
```c
// From https://github.com/bminor/glibc/blob/f942a732d37a96217ef828116ebe64a644db18d7/malloc/malloc.c#L3885C3-L3893C6
/* There are no usable arenas.  Fall back to sysmalloc to get a chunk from
mmap.  */
if (__glibc_unlikely (av == NULL))
{
void *p = sysmalloc (nb, av);
if (p != NULL)
alloc_perturb (p, bytes);
return p;
}
```
</details>

### Fast Bin

Se o tamanho necessário estiver dentro dos tamanhos dos Fast Bins, tente usar um chunk do fast bin. Basicamente, com base no tamanho, ele encontrará o índice do fast bin onde chunks válidos devem estar localizados e, se houver, retornará um deles.\
Além disso, se o tcache estiver habilitado, ele **preencherá o bin do tcache daquele tamanho com fast bins**.

Enquanto realiza essas ações, algumas verificações de segurança são executadas aqui:

* Se o chunk estiver desalinhado: `malloc(): unaligned fastbin chunk detected 2`
* Se o chunk seguinte estiver desalinhado: `malloc(): unaligned fastbin chunk detected`
* Se o chunk retornado tiver um tamanho que não está correto por causa de seu índice no fast bin: `malloc(): memory corruption (fast)`
* Se algum chunk usado para preencher o tcache estiver desalinhado: `malloc(): unaligned fastbin chunk detected 3`

### Small Bin

Como indicado em um comentário, pequenos bins contêm um tamanho por índice, portanto, verificar se um chunk válido está disponível é super rápido, então, após os fast bins, os small bins são verificados.

A primeira verificação é descobrir se o tamanho solicitado pode estar dentro de um small bin. Nesse caso, obtenha o **índice** correspondente dentro do smallbin e veja se há **qualquer chunk disponível**.

Em seguida, uma verificação de segurança é realizada verificando:

* &#x20;se `victim->bk->fd = victim`. Para ver se ambos os chunks estão corretamente vinculados.

Nesse caso, o chunk **recebe o bit `inuse`,** a lista duplamente encadeada é corrigida para que esse chunk desapareça dela (já que vai ser usado), e o bit de arena não principal é definido, se necessário.

Finalmente, **preencha o índice tcache do tamanho solicitado** com outros chunks dentro do small bin (se houver).

/*
If a small request, check regular bin.  Since these "smallbins"
hold one size each, no searching within bins is necessary.

anyway, so we can check now, which is faster.)

### malloc\_consolidate

Se não era um pequeno bloco, é um grande bloco, e neste caso **`malloc_consolidate`** é chamado para evitar a fragmentação de memória.

<details>

<summary>chamada de malloc_consolidate</summary>
```c
/*
If this is a large request, consolidate fastbins before continuing.
While it might look excessive to kill all fastbins before
even seeing if there is space available, this avoids
fragmentation problems normally associated with fastbins.
Also, in practice, programs tend to have runs of either small or
large requests, but less often mixtures, so consolidation is not
invoked all that often in most programs. And the programs that
it is called frequently in otherwise tend to fragment.
*/

else
{
idx = largebin_index (nb);
if (atomic_load_relaxed (&av->have_fastchunks))
malloc_consolidate (av);
}

```
</details>

A função malloc consolidate basicamente remove pedaços do fast bin e os coloca no unsorted bin. Após o próximo malloc, esses pedaços serão organizados em seus respectivos small/fast bins.

Note que, ao remover esses pedaços, se eles forem encontrados com pedaços anteriores ou seguintes que não estão em uso, eles serão **desvinculados e mesclados** antes de colocar o pedaço final no **unsorted** bin.

Para cada pedaço do fast bin, uma série de verificações de segurança é realizada:

* Se o pedaço estiver desalinhado, aciona: `malloc_consolidate(): unaligned fastbin chunk detected`
* Se o pedaço tiver um tamanho diferente do que deveria por causa do índice em que está: `malloc_consolidate(): invalid chunk size`
* Se o pedaço anterior não estiver em uso e o pedaço anterior tiver um tamanho diferente do indicado por `prev_chunk`: `corrupted size vs. prev_size in fastbins`

### Bin não ordenado

É hora de verificar o bin não ordenado em busca de um chunk válido para usar.

#### Início

Isso começa com um grande loop for que irá percorrer o bin não ordenado na direção `bk` até chegar ao final (a estrutura da arena) com `while ((victim = unsorted_chunks (av)->bk) != unsorted_chunks (av))`&#x20;

Além disso, algumas verificações de segurança são realizadas toda vez que um novo chunk é considerado:

* Se o tamanho do chunk é estranho (muito pequeno ou muito grande): `malloc(): invalid size (unsorted)`
* Se o tamanho do próximo chunk é estranho (muito pequeno ou muito grande): `malloc(): invalid next size (unsorted)`
* Se o tamanho anterior indicado pelo próximo chunk difere do tamanho do chunk: `malloc(): mismatching next->prev_size (unsorted)`
* Se não `victim->bck->fd == victim` ou não `victim->fd == av` (arena): `malloc(): unsorted double linked list corrupted`
* Como estamos sempre verificando o último, seu `fd` deve sempre apontar para a estrutura da arena.
* Se o próximo chunk não indica que o anterior está em uso: `malloc(): invalid next->prev_inuse (unsorted)`

<details>

<summary><code>_int_malloc</code> início do bin não ordenado</summary>

chunks are placed in bins.

The outer loop here is needed because we might not realize until
near the end of malloc that we should have consolidated, so must
do so and retry. This happens at most once, and only when we would
otherwise need to expand memory to service a "small" request.

#### colocar chunk em um bin

Armazene o chunk verificado no small bin ou no large bin de acordo com o tamanho do chunk (mantendo o large bin devidamente organizado).

Estão sendo realizadas verificações de segurança para garantir que ambas as listas duplamente ligadas do large bin não estejam corrompidas:

#### Limites do `_int_malloc`

Neste ponto, se algum chunk foi armazenado no tcache que pode ser usado e o limite é alcançado, apenas **retorne um chunk do tcache**.

Além disso, se **MAX\_ITERS** for alcançado, saia do loop e obtenha um chunk de uma maneira diferente (top chunk).

Se `return_cached` foi definido, apenas retorne um chunk do tcache para evitar buscas maiores.

### Grande Bin (por índice)

Se o pedido for grande (não na pequena bin) e ainda não tivermos retornado nenhum chunk, obtenha o **índice** do tamanho solicitado na **grande bin**, verifique se **não está vazia** ou se o **maior chunk nesta bin é maior** do que o tamanho solicitado e, nesse caso, encontre o **menor chunk que pode ser usado** para o tamanho solicitado.

Se o espaço restante do chunk finalmente usado puder ser um novo chunk, adicione-o à bin não ordenada e o lsast\_reminder é atualizado.

Uma verificação de segurança é feita ao adicionar o restante à bin não ordenada:

### Top Chunk

Neste ponto, é hora de obter um novo chunk do Top chunk (se for grande o suficiente).

Ele começa com uma verificação de segurança para garantir que o tamanho do chunk não seja muito grande (corrompido):

* `chunksize(av->top) > av->system_mem`: `malloc(): corrupted top size`

Em seguida, usará o espaço do top chunk se for grande o suficiente para criar um chunk do tamanho solicitado.\
Caso contrário, se houver chunks rápidos, consolide-os e tente novamente.\
Finalmente, se não houver espaço suficiente, use `sysmalloc` para alocar o tamanho necessário.

<details>

```c
use_top:
/*
If large enough, split off the chunk bordering the end of memory
(held in av->top). Note that this is in accord with the best-fit
search rule.  In effect, av->top is treated as larger (and thus
less well fitting) than any other available chunk since it can
be extended to be as large as necessary (up to system
limitations).

We require that av->top always exists (i.e., has size >=
MINSIZE) after initialization, so if it would otherwise be
exhausted by current request, it is replenished. (The main
reason for ensuring it exists is that we may need MINSIZE space
to put in fenceposts in sysmalloc.)

### sysmalloc checks

* O tamanho do antigo heap é 0 (novo heap)
* O tamanho do heap anterior é maior que MINSIZE e o antigo Top está em uso
* O heap está alinhado ao tamanho da página (0x1000, então os 12 bits inferiores precisam ser 0)

Então, também verifica se:
