I want to memset(ptr, 0, malloc_usable_size(ptr)) my memory on free(3), so that my computer forgets all of my private information. This should work with mcheck() and friends. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
