pub fn freelike_block(addr: *const (), redzone: usize)Available on crate feature
client_requests_defs only.Expand description
freelike_block is the partner to malloclike_block. For Memcheck, it does two things:
The following description is taken almost untouched from the docs in the valgrind.h header
file.
- It records that the block has been deallocated. This assumes that the block was annotated as
having been allocated via
malloclike_block. Otherwise, an error will be issued. - It marks the block as being unaddressable.
freelike_block should be put immediately after the point where a heap block is deallocated.
