man wnmlc (Fonctions bibliothèques) - simple substitutions for malloc calls
NAME
wn_f_malloc, wn_f_calloc, wn_f_free, wn_f_cfree - simple substitutions for malloc calls
SYNOPSIS
#include <wn/wnmlc.h> char *wn_f_malloc(size) unsigned int size; char *wn_f_calloc(nelem,elsize) unsigned int nelem,elsize; wn_f_free(p) char *p; wn_f_cfree(p) char *p;
DESCRIPTION
These calls allow mechanical replacement of malloc(3) calls by calls based on wnmem. Simply add the prefix "wn_f_" to all malloc calls.
Doing so gives the following advantages:
- Less paging.
- Debugging using wn_memd calls works.
Memory allocated using these calls comes from a general_free memory group, labeled as "wn_f_malloc_group".
Use of these calls should be only a first step in replacing all malloc(3) calls with wn_mem calls.
DIAGNOSTICS
Same as wnmem.
