1 # Helper to dynamically allocate memory on the heap.
  2 #
  3 # We'd like to be able to write tests for functions that allocate memory,
  4 # making assertions on the precise addresses used. To achieve this we'll pass
  5 # in an *allocation descriptor* to allocate from.
  6 #
  7 # Allocation descriptors are also useful outside of tests. Assembly and machine
  8 # code are of necessity unsafe languages, and one of the most insidious kinds
  9 # of bugs unsafe languages expose us to are dangling pointers to memory that
 10 # has been freed and potentially even reused for something totally different.
 11 # To reduce the odds of such "use after free" errors, SubX programs tend to not
 12 # reclaim and reuse dynamically allocated memory. (Running out of memory is far
 13 # easier to debug.) Long-running programs that want to reuse memory are mostly
 14 # on their own to be careful. However, they do get one bit of help: they can
 15 # carve out chunks of memory and then allocate from them manually using this
 16 # very same 'allocate' helper. They just need a new allocation descriptor for
 17 # their book-keeping.
