Override malloc with LD_PRELOAD

• Making your own malloc library for troubleshooting
• GLIBC hook for malloc
• Malloc tutorial
• A Malloc Tutorial by Marwan Burelle

Main issue is handling the recursive calls inside malloc. If you use printf in malloc that might cause issue as printf itself calls malloc for memory allocation resulting infinite recursion. On the other hand in some cases ld.so uses calloc internally. This alos result in infinite recursion.

Relevant erro from SNAPD_DEBUG=1 snap run slack

tartTransientUnit failed with "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited": [Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1]

Possible reason: Need systemd --user but running this generates:

Trying to run as user instance, but $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set

$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is set to /run/user/$UID
