| steven_is_false | Hello. I wish to know if src/gc/malloc_trace.c is ever used in production. It has a very, very tiny security weakener and I was wondering if that is something that people should care about? src/gc/malloc_trace.c is only ever used in debug builds right? | 02:56 | |

| Util | stephen_is_false: I believe that it is the original intention, that malloc_trace.c is only ever used in debug builds. | 03:16 | |
| However, I would like to include your concerns, and the details of the security weakener, in our docs, as a warning to packagers. | 03:18 | ||

| rurban | malloc_trace is entirely unused and is documented as such (src/gc/api.c) | 12:35 | |
| both malloc files are just old upstream versions of standard glibc dlmalloc, not even ptmalloc2/3. they should be removed | 12:40 | ||

| Chirag | rurban: does, get_pointer, set_integer_native, unshift_integer, find_method, isa, invoke ----- are the only VTABLE methods left to be exported... I am directly calling all the others now. Maybe I can try exporting these as well | 15:21 | |
| rurban | didn't I exported all VTABLE methods already? | 15:47 | |
| But maybe I left out some, where I found no users. If you find users, remove the static, and convert it sure. | |||
| Chirag | will do.. do I even push callcontext.c ? | 15:48 | |
| rurban | as long as pmc2c is not changed we need to push the hand-edited sources, yes | 15:53 | |
| Chirag | i ll finish it soon and then change pmc2c if our tests look good | 15:54 | |
