liballoc - Custom Memory Allocation Library

liballoc is a memory allocation library written in C that provides custom memory allocation and management functionality using a singly linked list data structure.

Features

• Allocate and manage memory using a singly linked list.
• Support for malloc, calloc, realloc, and free functions.
• Thread-safe memory allocation using mutex locks.
• Built-in overflow and error handling.

Usage

1. Include the liballoc.h header file in your source code:

#include "liballoc.h"

Link your project with the compiled static or dynamic library.

Building the Library

1. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/liballoc.git
cd liballoc

2. Build the library:

make

This will compile the library and generate both static (liballoc_$(ARCH)-$(OS).a) and dynamic (liballoc_$(ARCH)-$(OS).so) versions in the bin directory.
