this patchset replaces the 1990s-era memory allocation tracking
with a 2010s-era memory allocation tracking. Particularly, it
removes the neccessity to maintain a centralised list of MTYPEs
in the library. Daemons can now just define their own MTYPEs on
the fly, with per-file static scope even.
The patchset is a drop-in rewrite that does _not_ require changes
to the code making use of the allocators. There are new
foo_memory.[ch] files in each daemon managing the MTYPEs.
To bring this to "perfection", the definitions from these files
should wander into the individual files using them. I did that
only for lib/, the remainder is left as an exercise to the reader
;) (Truthfully I didn't want to touch every single file in
tree.)
This patchset does NOT apply on master. It applies on top of
"lib: fix vrf_bitmap leak in zclient_free()".
LGTM, I like the mechanics of this patch. It is a nice cleanup.
