Malloc() itself knows about memory amount _really_ in use by a program and could check it don't go beyond the limits, but for this it needs run-time check via getrlimit() call for each malloc() call (a program can use setrlimit() by itself). Traking direct mmap()s and sbrk()s outside of malloc() is also needed. -- http://ache.pp.ru/Received on Fri Jan 04 2008 - 11:21:57 UTC
