/* malloc(size_t n) Returns a pointer to a newly allocated chunk of at least n bytes, or null if no space is available. Additionally, on failure, errno is set to ENOMEM on ANSI C systems. If n is zero, malloc returns a minumum-sized chunk. (The minimum size is 16 bytes on most 32bit systems, and 24 or 32 bytes on 64bit systems.) On most systems, size_t is an unsigned type, so calls with negative arguments are interpreted as requests for huge amounts of space, which will often fail. The maximum supported value of n differs across systems, but is in all cases less than the maximum representable value of a size_t.*/
可以看出,malloc 函数返回对应大小字节的内存块的指针。此外,该函数还对一些异常情况进行了处理
当 n=0 时,返回当前系统允许的堆的最小内存块。
当 n 为负数时,由于在大多数系统上,size_t 是无符号数(这一点非常重要),所以程序就会申请很大的内存空间,但通常来说都会失败,因为系统没有那么多的内存可以分配。
/*
free(void* p)
Releases the chunk of memory pointed to by p, that had been previously
allocated using malloc or a related routine such as realloc.
It has no effect if p is null. It can have arbitrary (i.e., bad!)
effects if p has already been freed.
Unless disabled (using mallopt), freeing very large spaces will
when possible, automatically trigger operations that give
back unused memory to the system, thus reducing program footprint.
