Hello. I wish to know if src/gc/malloc_trace.c is ever used in production. It has a very, very tiny security weakener and I was wondering if that is something that people should care about? src/gc/malloc_trace.c is only ever used in debug builds right? |

stephen_is_false: I believe that it is the original intention, that malloc_trace.c is only ever used in debug builds. |

However, I would like to include your concerns, and the details of the security weakener, in our docs, as a warning to packagers. |

malloc_trace is entirely unused and is documented as such (src/gc/api.c) |
12:40 |
rurban |
both malloc files are just old upstream versions of standard glibc dlmalloc, not even ptmalloc2/3. they should be removed |

rurban: does, get_pointer, set_integer_native, unshift_integer, find_method, isa, invoke ----- are the only VTABLE methods left to be exported... I am directly calling all the others now. Maybe I can try exporting these as well |
15:47 |
rurban |
didn't I exported all VTABLE methods already? |
15:47 |
rurban |
But maybe I left out some, where I found no users. If you find users, remove the static, and convert it sure. |
15:48 |
Chirag |
will do.. do I even push callcontext.c ? |
15:53 |
rurban |
as long as pmc2c is not changed we need to push the hand-edited sources, yes |
15:54 |
Chirag |
i ll finish it soon and then change pmc2c if our tests look good |
