Leif Hedstrom updated TS-567:
-----------------------------
Assignee: Leif Hedstrom
Taking a few bugs to work on.
> Cleanup of memory allocation in libinktomi++
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-567
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-567
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Leif Hedstrom
> Assignee: Leif Hedstrom
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 3.1.0
>
> Attachments: clear_memory.patch, malloc.txt
>
>
> There's a lot of ifdef's and debugging code paths around various allocation
> schemes in libinktomi++. We should clean this up, and simplify. It'd also be
> great to make it easy to enable various other allocators, e.g. jemalloc or
> tcmalloc, as part of the build system, causing ink_malloc / xmalloc and STL
> containers to use the new allocator. In particular for STL containers, it
> means we might need to have some allocator setup / initialization?
> Also, when should we use ink_malloc() vs xmalloc() ? It's quite
> inconsistently used right now I think. And, there are a few places using
> malloc() (etc.) directly, which we ought to fix.
