<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">MALLOC_DEBUG enhancements.
* Makes malloc() behave like calloc(). It will return a memory block
filled with 0x55. A nonzero value.
* Makes free() fill the released memory block and boundary fence's with
0xdeaddead. Any pointer use after free is going to have a pointer
pointing to 0xdeaddead. The 0xdeaddead pointer is usually an invalid
memory address so a crash is expected.
* Puts the freed memory block into a circular array so it is not reused
immediately.
* When the circular array rotates out a memory block to the heap it checks
that the memory has not been altered from 0xdeaddead.
* Made the astmm_log message wording better.
* Made crash if the DO_CRASH menuselect option is enabled and something is
found.
* Fixed a potential alignment issue on 64 bit systems.
struct ast_region.data[] should now be aligned correctly for all platforms.
* Extracted region_check_fences() from __ast_free_region() and
handle_memory_show().
* Updated handle_memory_show() CLI usage help.
