* Το `mchunkptr bins[NBINS * 2 - 2];` περιέχει **δείκτες** στα **πρώτα και τελευταία κομμάτια** των μικρών, μεγάλων και αταξινόμητων **κάδων** (το -2 είναι επειδή το δείκτης 0 δε χρησιμοποιείται)
* Επομένως, το **πρώτο κομμάτι** αυτών των κάδων θα έχει ένα **αντίστροφο δείκτη προς αυτήν τη δομή** και το **τελευταίο κομμάτι** αυτών των κάδων θα έχει ένα **μπροστινό δείκτη** προς αυτήν τη δομή. Αυτό σημαίνει ουσιαστικά ότι αν μπορείτε να **διαρρεύσετε** αυτές τις διευθύνσεις στον κύριο σωρό, θα έχετε ένα δείκτη προς τη δομή στο **libc**.
* Οι δομές `struct malloc_state *next;` και `struct malloc_state *next_free;` είναι συνδεδεμένες λίστες σωρών
* Το κομμάτι `top` είναι το τελευταίο "κομμάτι", το οποίο ουσιαστικά είναι **όλος ο υπόλοιπος χώρος του σωρού**. Μόλις το κομμάτι top είναι "άδειο", ο σωρός έχει χρησιμοποιηθεί πλήρως και χρειάζεται να ζητήσει περισσότερο χώρο.
* Το κομμάτι `last reminder` προέρχεται από περιπτώσεις όπου δεν είναι διαθέσιμο ένα κομμάτι ακριβούς μεγέθους και επομένως ένα μεγαλύτερο κομμάτι διαιρείται, ένα μέρος του υπολειπόμενου δείκτη τοποθετείται εδώ.
