Tale of OpenBSD secure memory allocator internals - malloc(3)
So, again I started reading OpenBSD source codes with debugger after reducing my sleep timings and managing to get some time after professional life. This time I have picked one of my favourite item from my wishlist to learn and share, that is, OpenBSD malloc(3), secure allocator
I will try to keep it as n part series due to lengthy content and this series will be mostly focussed on user-space code of malloc(3) and friends
First of all, I would like to thanks Otto Moerbeek, Bryan Steele and Fabien Romano for helping me to understand the malloc(3) internals and cleared all my queries.
So, we should start now... :)
