Detailed Description

libkarmaclient memory management.

Definitions of the libkarmaclient memory management functions. These functions provide wrappers around memory management functions that share the malloc(3), realloc(3) and free(3) prototypes.

Function Documentation

void ks_free

(

void *

ptr

)

Free the memory pointed to by ptr.

Parameters:

ptr

a pointer to the memory we want to free

Returns:

Nothing

void* ks_malloc

(

size_t

size

)

Allocate a size bytes of memory using the allocation function given to ks_malloc_set().

Parameters:

size

the size of the block of memory to be allocated (in bytes)

Returns:

A pointer to the newly allocated memory on success, or NULL on failure

void ks_malloc_set	(	ks_malloc_t	m,
		ks_realloc_t	r,
		ks_free_t	f
	)

Initialise the functions that are actually used for allocating reallocating and freeing allocated memory. If this function is not called, libkarmaclient defaults to using malloc(3), realloc(3) and free(3).

Parameters:

	m	a pointer to a memory allocation function.
	r	a pointer to a reallocation function.
	f	a pointer to a memory freeing function

Returns:

Nothing

Definition at line 75 of file ks_malloc.c.

void* ks_realloc	(	void *	ptr,
		size_t	size
	)

Allocate a new block of size bytes memory for the object pointed to be ptr.

Parameters:

	ptr	a pointer to the memory currently allocated for the object.
	size	the size of the block of memory we wish to allocate for the object pointed to by ptr.

Returns:

a pointer to the newly allocated block of memory on success, or NULL on failure.
