When light (or comprehensive) poisoning is enabled, the size requested by the user for allocation
is extended by a few bytes to store the canary header and footer. heap_caps_get_allocated_size() should
return the original size asked by the user (without the additional canary bytes).
test_malloc.c extended with a new test assuring that heap_caps_get_allocated_size() returns the proper size
regardless of the degree of poisoning.
If memory protection is enabled on esp32c3 and esp32s3, we don't want to the heap component to see
the startup stack memory as D/IRAM but as DRAM only. Introduce a new type to make this possible in
the same fashion the regular D/IRAM regions are handled.
On xtensa architecture, the call to __assert_func uses a reference to __func__ that can
sometimes be placed in flash. Since the __asert_func can be called from functions in IRAM
the check_callgraph script can report an error when checking for invalid calls from IRAM
to flash sections. However, the __asert_func prevents this scenario at runtime so the
check_callgraph script reports a 'flas positive' situation. For this reasson, all references
to __func__$x found prior to a call to __assert_func are droped in the parsing of the rtl files.
this commits:
- adds build-time test to check that no call to flash regions are done from IRAM functions
- resolves problems related to IRAM function using content in flash memory
- update heap_caps_alloc_failed to use a default function name in DRAM
when necessary instead of creating a function name variable in DRAM for
each call of heap_caps_alloc_failed. This allows to save some extra bytes
in RAM.
This commits adds a internal.md file in the heap directory to clarify the idea behind
which functions is placed in IRAM or in flash.
A section in mem_alloc.rst documentation is added to specify which functions from the
heap component API can be used in interrupt handlers.
This commit aims to place in the IRAM section only the functions that
are relevent for performance instead of placing the entire content of
multi_heap.c, mullti_heap_poisoning.c and tlsf.c in the IRAM.
The calculation of fl index max is changed to always be the smallest
number that includes the size of the registered memory.
The control_construct() function now checks for minimum size as the control structure
parameters are calculated.
There is no longer a minimum configuration for fl index max so the tlsf_config
enum is striped down to remove unecessary compile time values.
the tlsf_size() function will fail if no tlsf pointer is passed as parameter since there
is no way to calculate a default tlsf size anymore.
bitfields are now used in control_t when possible which reduces the size of the structure
from 56 bytes to 36 bytes.
This commit extends the heap test set by adding a test to check corruption
detection in free memory block.
For each byte of the free block memory, the test changes the value of the byte,
call multi_heap_check(), make sure that the function returns 'corruption detected'
only when comprehensive poisoning is set, restore the good value of the byte, calls
multi_heap_check() again and make sure that it returns 'OK'.
Add a call to tlsf_check_hook() in tlsf_check() that calls
multi_heap_internal_check_block_poisoning() and check the memory
of every free blocks when heap poisoning is active.
Don't call heap_caps_alloc_failed() for malloc(0) and calloc(0), because it is not an error.
Improve handling of malloc(0) and calloc(0).
Merges https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/pull/9517
heap_caps_*_prefer functions will now only call heaps_caps_alloc_failed
callback if all attempts to allocation memory fail (and not after each attempt
anymore).
* Closes https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/9086
Fix a bug that could return a chunk of memory smaller than requested,
easily leading to a memory corruption, when the required memory alignment
passed to the allocator is 4.
Add TRY_ENTRY_CRITICAL() API to all for timeouts when entering critical sections.
The following port API were added:
- portTRY_ENTER_CRITICAL()
- portTRY_ENTER_CRITICAL_ISR()
- portTRY_ENTER_CRITICAL_SAFE()
Deprecated legacy spinlock API in favor of spinlock.h. The following API were deprecated:
- vPortCPUInitializeMutex()
- vPortCPUAcquireMutex()
- vPortCPUAcquireMutexTimeout()
- vPortCPUReleaseMutex()
Other Changes:
- Added portMUX_INITIALIZE() to replace vPortCPUInitializeMutex()
- The assembly of the critical section functions ends up being about 50 instructions longer,
thus the spinlock test pass threshold had to be increased to account for the extra runtime.
