Line and file: mm_realloc.c

Expected behavior: 

Observed behavior: when I run mdriver-realloc it says my realloc did not preserve what is in the old block on line 7 of the trace file realloc-bal.rep

Question: I tried for days and I still dont know why. I think it might be a problem on lines 96-114 in mm-realloc.c. Can someone take a look? Thanks

You may want to print out the heap word-by-word and see where the mismatch occured.

See mm_check and also read bottom of assignment 5 for checking heap consistency.

I ran into another problem with the trace file short-realloc. It outputs this message:

mdriver-realloc: mdriver-realloc.c:504: read_trace: Assertion `max_index == trace->num_ids - 1' failed.

Aborted

I have no idea what it means. I need to fix this so I can test with smaller inputs.

That just means that the number of ops you specified is not equal to the number of alloc+realloc+free calls in your trace.
