Simple Malloc implementation
[Memory Allocation]
|
Functions | |
| void * | malloc (size_t size) |
| Allocate size bytes of dynamic memory. | |
| void * | zalloc (size_t size) |
| Allocate size bytes of zero-initialized dynamic memory. | |
| static void | free (void *ptr) |
| Free a memory object previously allocated by malloc(). | |
Detailed Description
This implementation of malloc() is very lightweight, but it does not include free(), realloc() or any other fancy features. It is useful when including drivers that rely on malloc() during initialization, but not for general dynamic memory management.
Function Documentation
| static void free | ( | void * | ptr | ) | [inline, static] |
Free a memory object previously allocated by malloc().
This will return the memory at ptr back to the dynamic memory allocator. ptr must point to a block of memory previously returned by malloc() or any of the associated functions, and must not have been passed to free() since then.
- Note:
- This particular implementation of free() does nothing.
- Parameters:
-
ptr Pointer to the memory object to be freed.
