Abstract
A technique is disclosed for detecting a memory leak. A request to allocate or deallocate memory is received. In a memory leak table that is bounded in size, an entry that is associated with a call path with which the request is associated is accessed. The entry in the memory leak table is updated.
Claims30
A method of detecting a memory leak, comprising:
- receiving a request to allocate or deallocate memory;
- accessing in a memory leak table that is bounded in size an entry that is associated with a call path with which the request is associated;
- and
- updating the entry in the memory leak table.
1 more element
A system for detecting a memory leak, comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- receive a request to allocate or deallocate memory;
- access in a memory leak table that is bounded in size an entry that is associated with a call path with which the request is associated;
- and
- update the entry in the memory leak table;
- and
- a memory that is coupled with the processor and configured to store the memory leak table.
4 more elements
A computer program product for detecting a memory leak, the computer program product being embodied in a computer readable medium and comprising computer instructions for:
- receiving a request to allocate or deallocate memory;
- accessing in a memory leak table that is bounded in size an entry that is associated with a call path with which the request is associated;
- and
- updating the entry in the memory leak table.
