50  * For performance and consistency reasons we expand the _environ list using
51  * the trusted "power of two, drop it on the floor" method. This allows for
52  * a lockless, single pass implementation of getenv(), yet the memory leak
53  * is bounded - in normal circumstances total wastage is never greater than
54  * 3x the space needed to hold any _environ list.
55  *
56  * The only abnormal circumstance is if an application modifies the _environ
57  * list pointer directly. Such an application does not conform to POSIX.1
58  * 2001. However, we also care about standards which did not foresee this
59  * issue. For this reason we keep a working copy of our notion of _environ in
60  * my_environ. If, when we are called upon to modify _environ, we ever detect
61  * a mismatch between _environ and my_environ we discard all our assumptions
62  * concerning the location and size of the _environ list. As an additional
63  * precaution we only ever update _environ once we have finished manipulating
64  * our working copy.
65  *
66  * The setenv() API is inherently leaky but we are completely at the mercy
67  * of the application.
68  *
69  * To pacify leak detectors we chain all allocations which are at risk of
70  * being leaked in either of the above two scenarios. chunk_list must only
71  * be updated under the protection of update_lock.
72  *
73  * Although we don't allocate the original _environ list it is likely that
74  * we will leak this too. Accordingly, we create a reference in initenv().
75  * However, we can't be held responsible for such leaks in abnormal (see
76  * above) circumstances.
