/*
 * pl_malloc.d - Perl libc malloc analysis.
 *               Written for the Perl DTrace provider.
 *
 * $Id: pl_malloc.d,v 1.1.1.1 2015/09/30 22:01:09 christos Exp $
 *
 * This is an expiremental script to identify who is calling malloc() for
 * memory allocation, and to print distribution plots of the requested bytes.
 * If a malloc() occured while in a Perl subroutine, then that subroutine is
 * identified as responsible; else the caller of malloc() is identified as
 * responsible - which will be a function from the Perl engine.
 *
 * USAGE: pl_malloc.d { -p PID | -c cmd }	# hit Ctrl-C to end
 *
 * Filename and subroutine names are printed if available.
