Question: I know I haven't finished the free function but when running ./mdriver -V, it said that mem_sbrk failed in requestmorespace. I need help figuring out why this is happening, thanks.

Testcases have been designed in such a way that you never get out of memory. So, running out of memory is this assignment mainly means that you have an implementation bug in your code or maybe you haven't implemented some features like coalescing yet.

I have filled in mm_free and ran the two short rep traces which showed no problems, but when I ran the other trace files, I get seg faults. I have ran it through gdb and says it fails in removefreeblock. I'm having difficulty finding where the problem is.

Try using examine_heap to display the heap before this happens.
