/* The code here is inspired by Kris Kwiatkowski's approach in

 * to provide a general interface for memory-checking mechanisms, primarily
 * for constant-time checking.
 */
 
/* These macros are defined by this header file:
 *
 * - SECP256K1_CHECKMEM_ENABLED:
 *   - 1 if memory-checking integration is available, 0 otherwise.
 *     This is just a compile-time macro. Use the next macro to check it is actually
 *     available at runtime.
 * - SECP256K1_CHECKMEM_RUNNING():
 *   - Acts like a function call, returning 1 if memory checking is available
 *     at runtime.
 * - SECP256K1_CHECKMEM_CHECK(p, len):
 *   - Assert or otherwise fail in case the len-byte memory block pointed to by p is
 *     not considered entirely defined.
 * - SECP256K1_CHECKMEM_CHECK_VERIFY(p, len):
 *   - Like SECP256K1_CHECKMEM_CHECK, but only works in VERIFY mode.
 * - SECP256K1_CHECKMEM_UNDEFINE(p, len):
 *   - marks the len-byte memory block pointed to by p as undefined data (secret data,
 *     in the context of constant-time checking).
 * - SECP256K1_CHECKMEM_DEFINE(p, len):
 *   - marks the len-byte memory pointed to by p as defined data (public data, in the
 *     context of constant-time checking).
