Eric Andersen53601822002-12-05 21:12:42 +000028 There are 3 ways BusyBox can handle buffer allocations:
29 - Use malloc. This costs code size for the call to xmalloc.
30 - Put them on stack. For some very small machines with limited stack
31 space, this can be deadly. For most folks, this works just fine.
32 - Put them in BSS. This works beautifully for computers with a real
33 MMU (and OS support), but wastes runtime RAM for uCLinux. This
34 behavior was the only one available for BusyBox versions 0.48 and
35 earlier.

Eric Andersenf086ed82004-05-25 11:30:22 +0000405 Using an additional debugging library will make BusyBox become

409 dmalloc support:

Eric Andersenc9f20d92002-12-05 08:41:41 +0000411 This enables compiling with dmalloc ( http://dmalloc.com/ )
412 which is an excellent public domain mem leak and malloc problem
413 detector. To enable dmalloc, before running busybox you will
414 want to properly set your environment, for example:
415 export DMALLOC_OPTIONS=debug=0x34f47d83,inter=100,log=logfile
416 The 'debug=' value is generated using the following command
417 dmalloc -p log-stats -p log-non-free -p log-bad-space -p log-elapsed-time \
418 -p check-fence -p check-heap -p check-lists -p check-blank \

Eric Andersen88c916b2003-10-22 09:58:56 +0000424 fence is another very useful malloc debugging library which uses
Eric Andersenc7bda1c2004-03-15 08:29:22 +0000425 your computer's virtual memory hardware to detect illegal memory
426 accesses. This support will make BusyBox be considerable larger
