This is so that any embedder who uses a custom # allocator (by defining JS_USE_CUSTOM_ALLOCATOR) will see all heap allocation # go through that custom allocator. # # Therefore, the presence of any calls to "vanilla" allocation/free functions # (e.g. malloc(), free()) is a bug. # # This script checks for the presence of such disallowed vanilla # allocation/free function in SpiderMonkey when it's built as a library. It # relies on |nm| from the GNU binutils, and so only works on Linux, but one # platform is good enough to catch almost all violations. # # This checking is only 100% reliable in a JS_USE_CUSTOM_ALLOCATOR build in # which the default definitions of js_malloc et al (in Utility.h) -- which call # malloc et al -- are replaced with empty definitions. This is because the # presence and possible inlining of the default js_malloc et al can cause # malloc/calloc/realloc/free calls show up in unpredictable places. # # Unfortunately, that configuration cannot be tested on Mozilla's standard # testing infrastructure. Instead, by default this script only tests that none # of the other vanilla allocation/free functions (operator new, memalign, etc) # are present. If given the --aggressive flag, it will also check for # malloc/calloc/realloc/free. # # Note: We don't check for |operator delete| and |operator delete[]|. These # can be present somehow due to virtual destructors, but this is not too # because vanilla delete/delete[] calls don't make sense without corresponding # vanilla new/new[] calls, and any explicit calls will be caught by Valgrind's # mismatched alloc/free checking. #---------------------------------------------------------------------------- from __future__ import print_function import argparse import re import subprocess import sys # The obvious way to implement this script is to search for occurrences of # malloc et al, succeed if none are found, and fail is some are found. # However, "none are found" does not necessarily mean "none are present" -- # this script could be buggy.
