Yet Another Memory Allocator. This is an education project.
- Develop the memory allocator.
- Write a USAGE guide.
- Write a bit about how the memory allocator works.
yamalloc is an attempt at developing a memory allocator that allows the programmer to:
- Ask for memory from the allocator. (equal of
malloc) - Allows the programmer to free prior allocated memory. (equal of
free) - Allows the programmer to re-allocate prior allocated memory. (equal of
realloc)
This project aims for correctness over efficiency.
