2019-04-25Move /system dependency on tz_version to bionicNeil Fuller
Move /system dependency on tz_version to bionic from core-libart. The file is not used by code but is useful on device to identify the format / version / origin of the tzdata file. The tz_version file identifies the Android release (e.g. 3.1 == Q), which implies the version of zic used to generate tzdata, and any Android revision of the tzdata (e.g. 2019a v2) that may have taken place. The file was previously used by by the tzdatacheck binary but it has since switched to using the copy in the runtime module. The bionic README.md is also updated here to reflect latest locations of scripts.

2016-01-25Malloc debug rewrite.Christopher Ferris
The major components of the rewrite: - Completely remove the qemu shared library code. Nobody was using it and it appears to have broken at some point. - Adds the ability to enable/disable different options independently. - Adds a new option that can enable the backtrace on alloc/free when a process gets a specific signal. - Adds a new way to enable malloc debug. If a special property is set, and the process has an environment variable set, then debug malloc will be enabled. This allows something that might be a derivative of app_process to be started with an environment variable being enabled. - get_malloc_leak_info() used to return one element for each pointer that had the exact same backtrace. The new version returns information for every one of the pointers with same backtrace. It turns out ddms already automatically coalesces these, so the old method simply hid the fact that there where multiple pointers with the same amount of backtrace. - Moved all of the malloc debug specific code into the library. Nothing related to the malloc debug data structures remains in libc. - Removed the calls to the debug malloc cleanup routine. Instead, I added an atexit call with the debug malloc cleanup routine. This gets around most problems related to the timing of doing the cleanup. The new properties and environment variables: libc.debug.malloc.options Set by option name (such as "backtrace"). Setting this to a bad value will cause a usage statement to be printed to the log. libc.debug.malloc.program Same as before. If this is set, then only the program named will be launched with malloc debug enabled. This is not a complete match, but if any part of the property is in the program name, malloc debug is enabled. libc.debug.malloc.env_enabled If set, then malloc debug is only enabled if the running process has the environment variable LIBC_DEBUG_MALLOC_ENABLE set.

2015-01-09Markdown-ify 5137db3.Dan Albert
Most of these are just aesthetic, but the `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS` probably would have rendered partly as italics and skipped some underscores. GitHub's Markdown also doesn't identify our bug URLs as links, so mark them explicitly. Change-Id: I62be7542aa43929d847de2bad7d8d1ed3aaa640c
