I can write a proposal, it would essentially be:
when defined(nimOverrideAllocator):
proc overrideAllocator(
allocPtr: proc (size, align: Positive): pointer {.nimcall, raises: [],
tags: [], gcsafe.},
deallocPtr: proc (p: pointer; size: Positive) {.nimcall, raises: [],
tags: [], gcsafe.},
reallocPtr: proc (p: pointer; size, oldSize, align: Positive): pointer
{.nimcall, raises: [], tags: [], gcsafe.})
Run
It should be opt-in as allocation is often on the critical path IME and proc
pointers are not inline-able.
