STINNER Victor added the comment: To be exhaustive, another patch should be developed to replace all calls for malloc/realloc/free by PyMem_Malloc/PyMem_Realloc/PyMem_Free. PyObject_Malloc() is still using mmap() or malloc() internally for example.
Other examples of functions calling malloc/realloc/free directly: _PySequence_BytesToCharpArray(), block_new() (of pyarena.c), find_key() (of thread.c), PyInterpreterState_New(), win32_wchdir(), posix_getcwd(), Py_Main(), etc. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3329> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
