|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm RedZone
|
|
.Nd "buffer corruptions detector"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "options KDB"
|
|
.Cd "options DDB"
|
|
.Cd "options DEBUG_REDZONE"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
detects buffer underflow and buffer overflow bugs at runtime.
|
|
Currently
|
|
.Nm
|
|
only detects buffer corruptions for memory allocated with
|
|
.Xr malloc 9 .
|
|
When such corruption is detected two backtraces are printed on the console.
|
|
The first one shows from where memory was allocated, the second one shows from
|
|
where memory was freed.
|
|
By default the system will not panic when buffer corruption is detected.
|
|
This can be changed by setting the
|
|
.Va vm.redzone.panic
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable to 1.
|
|
The amount of extra memory allocated for
|
|
.Nm Ns 's
|
|
needs is stored in the
|
|
.Va vm.redzone.extra_mem
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLE
|
|
The example below shows the logs from the detection of a buffer underflow and a
|
|
buffer overflow.
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
REDZONE: Buffer underflow detected. 2 bytes corrupted before 0xc8688580 (16 bytes allocated).

.Sh BUGS
|
|
Currently,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
does not cooperate with
|
|
.Xr memguard 9 .
|
|
Allocations from a memory type controlled by
|
|
.Xr memguard 9
|
|
are simply skipped, so buffer corruptions will not be detected there.
