Resumo da Ordem Free

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

  1. Se o endereço for nulo, não faça nada
  2. Se o chunk foi mmaped, mummap ele e termine
  3. Chame _int_free:
    1. Se possível, adicione o chunk ao tcache
    2. Se possível, adicione o chunk ao fast bin
    3. Chame _int_free_merge_chunk para consolidar o chunk se necessário e adicione-o à lista não ordenada

__libc_free

Free chama __libc_free.

  • Se o endereço passado for nulo (0), não faça nada.
  • Verifique a tag do ponteiro
  • Se o chunk for mmaped, mummap ele e isso é tudo
  • Se não, adicione a cor e chame _int_free sobre ele
__lib_free código ```c void __libc_free (void *mem) { mstate ar_ptr; mchunkptr p; /* chunk corresponding to mem */

if (mem == 0) /* free(0) has no effect */ return;

/* Quickly check that the freed pointer matches the tag for the memory. This gives a useful double-free detection. */ if (__glibc_unlikely (mtag_enabled)) *(volatile char *)mem;

int err = errno;

p = mem2chunk (mem);

if (chunk_is_mmapped (p)) /* release mmapped memory. / { / See if the dynamic brk/mmap threshold needs adjusting. Dumped fake mmapped chunks do not affect the threshold. */ if (!mp_.no_dyn_threshold && chunksize_nomask (p) > mp_.mmap_threshold && chunksize_nomask (p) <= DEFAULT_MMAP_THRESHOLD_MAX) { mp_.mmap_threshold = chunksize (p); mp_.trim_threshold = 2 * mp_.mmap_threshold; LIBC_PROBE (memory_mallopt_free_dyn_thresholds, 2, mp_.mmap_threshold, mp_.trim_threshold); } munmap_chunk (p); } else { MAYBE_INIT_TCACHE ();

/* Mark the chunk as belonging to the library again. */ (void)tag_region (chunk2mem (p), memsize (p));

ar_ptr = arena_for_chunk (p); _int_free (ar_ptr, p, 0); }

__set_errno (err); } libc_hidden_def (__libc_free)

Começa com algumas verificações para garantir que:

* o **ponteiro** está **alinhado,** ou dispara o erro `free(): invalid pointer`
* o **tamanho** não é menor que o mínimo e que o **tamanho** também está **alinhado** ou dispara o erro: `free(): invalid size`

_int_free tcache

Ele tentará primeiro alocar este bloco no tcache relacionado. No entanto, algumas verificações são realizadas anteriormente. Ele percorrerá todos os blocos do tcache no mesmo índice que o bloco liberado e:

  • Se houver mais entradas do que mp_.tcache_count: free(): too many chunks detected in tcache
  • Se a entrada não estiver alinhada: free(): unaligned chunk detected in tcache 2
  • se o bloco liberado já foi liberado e está presente como bloco no tcache: free(): double free detected in tcache 2

Se tudo correr bem, o bloco é adicionado ao tcache e a função retorna.

### \_int\_free fast bin <a href="#int_free" id="int_free"></a>

Comece verificando se o tamanho é adequado para fast bin e verifique se é possível configurá-lo próximo ao top chunk.

Em seguida, adicione o chunk liberado no topo do fast bin enquanto realiza algumas verificações:

* Se o tamanho do chunk for inválido (muito grande ou pequeno) acione: `free(): invalid next size (fast)`
* Se o chunk adicionado já era o topo do fast bin: `double free or corruption (fasttop)`
* Se o tamanho do chunk no topo tiver um tamanho diferente do chunk que estamos adicionando: `invalid fastbin entry (free)`

## \_int\_free\_merge\_chunk

Esta função tentará mesclar o chunk P de SIZE bytes com seus vizinhos. Coloque o chunk resultante na lista de bin não ordenados.

Algumas verificações são realizadas:

* Se o chunk é o chunk superior: `double free or corruption (top)`
* Se o próximo chunk está fora dos limites da arena: `double free or corruption (out)`
* Se o chunk não está marcado como usado (no `prev_inuse` do chunk seguinte): `double free or corruption (!prev)`
* Se o próximo chunk tem um tamanho muito pequeno ou muito grande: `free(): invalid next size (normal)`
* se o chunk anterior não estiver em uso, tentará consolidar. Mas, se o prev\_size diferir do tamanho indicado no chunk anterior: `corrupted size vs. prev_size while consolidating`
