Thanks!
Do you speak any assembler? I'm failing now here:
0x0000641e <my_malloc+134>: call 0x2e5b <make_cons>
0x00006423 <my_malloc+139>: mov %eax,%edx
0x00006425 <my_malloc+141>: lea 0x233caf(%ebx),%eax
0x0000642b <my_malloc+147>: mov (%eax),%eax
0x0000642d <my_malloc+149>: mov %edx,(%eax) <-------
0x0000642f <my_malloc+151>: lea 0x233caf(%ebx),%eax
0x00006435 <my_malloc+157>: mov (%eax),%eax
0x00006437 <my_malloc+159>: mov (%eax),%esi
0x00006439 <my_malloc+161>: mov 0x8(%ebp),%eax
0x0000643c <my_malloc+164>: mov %eax,(%esp)
0x0000643f <my_malloc+167>: call 0xa79a4 <alloc_simple_string>
on C code
malloc_list = make_cons(Cnil, malloc_list);
malloc_list->c.c_car = alloc_simple_string(size);
with
Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
Reason: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at address: 0xff17a000
because gcc compiled some dereferencing of this address at the above
instruction between the calls, presumably to set the cons to the
variable malloc_list. But the address of the latter is not 0xff17a000
but
p &malloc_list
$7 = (object *) 0x102410
Anyway, I have no contacts with any mac people, so don't know where
really to turn. First guess is a compiler bug. Google turns up other
examples (different applications) with no obvious solutions.
Take care,
