I saw discussion a little while ago regarding implementing a version of malloc that returns cleared memory - did this gain any traction?
i dont think anyone posted a patch. it would make sense though to generalize the zalloc() code since some places are already doing it.
Actually, I think we should be using calloc() more than we are
if we want to define zalloc() to calloc(), then sure. but forcing people to use calloc() with a size=1 is silly. the API is not nearly as obvious to passing observers as zalloc(). -mike
