Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 21 Dynamic allocation • Actually, malloc does not allocate a new memory region whose size exactly equals to the size given by user It allocates a few extra bytes to hold needed information (including the size of allocated region) so that free function could easily clean this region Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 22 Dynamic allocation • How to allocate and clean memory region on heap? void *p; p = malloc(100); Used Unused // something free(p); Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 23 Dynamic allocation • How to allocate and clean memory region on heap? void *p; p = malloc(100); Used 100 bytes Unused // something free(p); Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 24 Dynamic allocation • How to allocate and clean memory region on heap? void *p; p = malloc(100); Used 100 bytes Unused // something free(p); Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 25 Dynamic allocation • How to allocate and clean memory region on heap? void *p; p = malloc(100); Used 100 bytes Unused // something free(p); Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 26 Dynamic allocation • How to allocate and clean memory region on heap? void *p; p = malloc(100); Used Unused // something free(p); Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 27 Dynamic allocation • Exercise: Implement your version of malloc and free using the technique described above Autumn 2016 FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING HO CHI MINH CITY UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 28 [...]...
