32 -- This packages provides a special implementation of the Ada 95 storage pools
34 -- The goal of this debug pool is to detect incorrect uses of memory
35 -- (multiple deallocations, access to invalid memory,...). Errors are reported
36 -- in one of two ways: either by immediately raising an exception, or by
37 -- printing a message on standard output or standard error.
39 -- You need to instrument your code to use this package: for each access type
40 -- you want to monitor, you need to add a clause similar to:
42 -- type Integer_Access is access Integer;
43 -- for Integer_Access'Storage_Pool use Pool;
45 -- where Pool is a tagged object declared with
47 -- Pool : GNAT.Debug_Pools.Debug_Pool;
49 -- This package was designed to be as efficient as possible, but still has an
50 -- impact on the performance of your code, which depends on the number of
51 -- allocations, deallocations and, somewhat less, dereferences that your
52 -- application performs.
54 -- For each faulty memory use, this debug pool will print several lines
55 -- of information, including things like the location where the memory
56 -- was initially allocated, the location where it was freed etc.
58 -- Physical allocations and deallocations are done through the usual system
59 -- calls. However, in order to provide proper checks, the debug pool will not
60 -- release the memory immediately. It keeps released memory around (the amount
61 -- kept around is configurable) so that it can distinguish between memory that
62 -- has not been allocated and memory that has been allocated but freed. This
63 -- also means that this memory cannot be reallocated, preventing what would
64 -- otherwise be a false indication that freed memory is now allocated.
66 -- In addition, this package presents several subprograms that help analyze
67 -- the behavior of your program, by reporting memory leaks, the total amount
68 -- of memory that was allocated. The pool is also designed to work correctly
69 -- in conjunction with gnatmem.
71 -- Finally, a subprogram Print_Pool is provided for use from the debugger
73 -- Limitations
74 -- ===========
76 -- Current limitation of this debug pool: if you use this debug pool for a
77 -- general access type ("access all"), the pool might report invalid
78 -- dereferences if the access object is pointing to another object on the
79 -- stack which was not allocated through a call to "new".
81 -- This debug pool will respect all alignments specified in your code, but
82 -- it does that by aligning all objects using Standard'Maximum_Alignment.
83 -- This allows faster checks, and limits the performance impact of using
84 -- this pool.

122 -- Stack_Trace_Depth. This parameter controls the maximum depth of stack
123 -- traces that are output to indicate locations of actions for error
124 -- conditions such as bad allocations. If set to zero, the debug pool
125 -- will not try to compute backtraces. This is more efficient but gives
126 -- less information on problem locations
128 -- Maximum_Logically_Freed_Memory: maximum amount of memory (bytes)
129 -- that should be kept before starting to physically deallocate some.
130 -- This value should be non-zero, since having memory that is logically
131 -- but not physically freed helps to detect invalid memory accesses.
133 -- Minimum_To_Free is the minimum amount of memory that should be freed
134 -- every time the pool starts physically releasing memory. The algorithm
135 -- to compute which block should be physically released needs some
136 -- expensive initialization (see Advanced_Scanning below), and this
137 -- parameter can be used to limit the performance impact by ensuring
138 -- that a reasonable amount of memory is freed each time. Even in the
139 -- advanced scanning mode, marked blocks may be released to match this
140 -- Minimum_To_Free parameter.
142 -- Reset_Content_On_Free: If true, then the contents of the freed memory
143 -- is reset to the pattern 16#DEADBEEF#, following an old IBM convention.
144 -- This helps in detecting invalid memory references from the debugger.
146 -- Raise_Exceptions: If true, the exceptions below will be raised every
147 -- time an error is detected. If you set this to False, then the action
148 -- is to generate output on standard error or standard output, depending
149 -- on Errors_To_Stdout, noting the errors, but to
150 -- keep running if possible (of course if storage is badly damaged, this
151 -- attempt may fail. This helps to detect more than one error in a run.
153 -- Advanced_Scanning: If true, the pool will check the contents of all
154 -- allocated blocks before physically releasing memory. Any possible
155 -- reference to a logically free block will prevent its deallocation.
156 -- Note that this algorithm is approximate, and it is recommended
157 -- that you set Minimum_To_Free to a non-zero value to save time.
159 -- Errors_To_Stdout: Errors messages will be displayed on stdout if
160 -- this parameter is True, or to stderr otherwise.
162 -- Low_Level_Traces: Traces all allocation and deallocations on the
163 -- stream specified by Errors_To_Stdout. This can be used for
164 -- post-processing by your own application, or to debug the
165 -- debug_pool itself. The output indicates the size of the allocated
166 -- block both as requested by the application and as physically
167 -- allocated to fit the additional information needed by the debug
168 -- pool.
170 -- All instantiations of this pool use the same internal tables. However,
171 -- they do not store the same amount of information for the tracebacks,
172 -- and they have different counters for maximum logically freed memory.
