Memory manager

group LWGSM_MEM

Dynamic memory manager.

Functions

uint8_t lwgsm_mem_assignmemory(const lwgsm_mem_region_t *regions, size_t size)

Assign memory region(s) for allocation functions.

Note

You can allocate multiple regions by assigning start address and region size in units of bytes

Return

1 on success, 0 otherwise

Note

Function is not available when LWGSM_CFG_MEM_CUSTOM is 1

Parameters

  • [in] regions: Pointer to list of regions to use for allocations

  • [in] len: Number of regions to use

void *lwgsm_mem_malloc(size_t size)

Allocate memory of specific size.

Return

Memory address on success, NULL otherwise

Note

Function is not available when LWGSM_CFG_MEM_CUSTOM is 1 and must be implemented by user

Parameters

  • [in] size: Number of bytes to allocate

void *lwgsm_mem_realloc(void *ptr, size_t size)

Reallocate memory to specific size.

Note

After new memory is allocated, content of old one is copied to new memory

Return

Memory address on success, NULL otherwise

Note

Function is not available when LWGSM_CFG_MEM_CUSTOM is 1 and must be implemented by user

Parameters

void *lwgsm_mem_calloc(size_t num, size_t size)

Allocate memory of specific size and set memory to zero.

Return

Memory address on success, NULL otherwise

Note

Function is not available when LWGSM_CFG_MEM_CUSTOM is 1 and must be implemented by user

Parameters

  • [in] num: Number of elements to allocate

  • [in] size: Size of each element

void lwgsm_mem_free(void *ptr)

Free memory.

Note

Function is not available when LWGSM_CFG_MEM_CUSTOM is 1 and must be implemented by user

Parameters

uint8_t lwgsm_mem_free_s(void **ptr)

Free memory in safe way by invalidating pointer after freeing.

Return

1 on success, 0 otherwise

Parameters

  • [in] ptr: Pointer to pointer to allocated memory to free

struct lwgsm_mem_region_t
#include <lwgsm_mem.h>

Single memory region descriptor.

Public Members

void *start_addr

Start address of region

size_t size

Size in units of bytes of region
