Function Documentation

◆ rtems_calloc()

void* rtems_calloc	(	size_t	nelem,
		size_t	elsize
	)

Allocates a memory area for the specified count of elements from the heap.

The allocated memory area is fully filled with zero bits.

This function is almost identical to calloc(). The only exception is that errno is not set in case of a memory allocation failure.

Parameters

[in]	nelem	The count of elements.
[in]	elsize	The size of each elements.

Return values

NULL	The memory allocation failed or nelem is zero or elsize is zero.
otherwise	The begin address of the allocated memory area.

◆ rtems_heap_allocate_aligned_with_boundary()

void* rtems_heap_allocate_aligned_with_boundary	(	size_t	size,
		uintptr_t	alignment,
		uintptr_t	boundary
	)

Allocates a memory area of size size bytes from the heap.

If the alignment parameter alignment is not equal to zero, the allocated memory area will begin at an address aligned by this value.

If the boundary parameter boundary is not equal to zero, the allocated memory area will comply with a boundary constraint. The boundary value specifies the set of addresses which are aligned by the boundary value. The interior of the allocated memory area will not contain an element of this set. The begin or end address of the area may be a member of the set.

A size value of zero will return a unique address which may be freed with free().

The memory allocated by this function can be released with a call to free().

Returns: A pointer to the begin of the allocated memory area, or NULL if no memory is available or the parameters are inconsistent.

◆ rtems_heap_extend()

rtems_status_code rtems_heap_extend	(	void *	area_begin,
		uintptr_t	area_size
	)

Extends the memory available for the heap using the memory area starting at area_begin of size area_size bytes.

There are no alignment requirements. The memory area must be big enough to contain some maintenance blocks. It must not overlap parts of the current heap areas. Disconnected subordinate heap areas will lead to used blocks which cover the gaps. Extending with an inappropriate memory area will corrupt the heap.

Return values

RTEMS_SUCCESSFUL	Successful operation.
RTEMS_INVALID_ADDRESS	Invalid memory area.

◆ rtems_heap_greedy_allocate()

void* rtems_heap_greedy_allocate	(	const uintptr_t *	block_sizes,
		size_t	block_count
	)

Greedy allocate that empties the heap.

Afterwards the heap has at most block_count allocatable blocks of sizes specified by block_sizes. The block_sizes must point to an array with block_count members. All other blocks are used.

See also: rtems_heap_greedy_free().

◆ rtems_heap_greedy_allocate_all_except_largest()

void* rtems_heap_greedy_allocate_all_except_largest ( uintptr_t * allocatable_size )

Greedy allocate all blocks except the largest free block.

Afterwards the heap has at most one allocatable block. This block is the largest free block if it exists. The allocatable size of this block is stored in allocatable_size. All other blocks are used.

See also: rtems_heap_greedy_free().

◆ rtems_heap_greedy_free()

void rtems_heap_greedy_free ( void * opaque )

Frees space of a greedy allocation.

The opaque argument must be the return value of rtems_heap_greedy_allocate() or rtems_heap_greedy_allocate_all_except_largest().

◆ rtems_malloc()

void* rtems_malloc ( size_t size )

Allocates a memory area of the specified size from the heap.

This function is almost identical to malloc(). The only exception is that errno is not set in case of a memory allocation failure.

Parameters

[in] size The memory area size in bytes.

Return values

NULL	The memory allocation failed or size is zero.
otherwise	The begin address of the allocated memory area.

◆ rtems_malloc_dirty_memory()

void rtems_malloc_dirty_memory	(	void *	start,
		size_t	size
	)

Dirty Memory Function.

This method fills the specified area with a non-zero pattern to aid in debugging programs which do not initialize their memory allocated from the heap.

◆ rtems_memalign()

int rtems_memalign	(	void **	pointer,
		size_t	alignment,
		size_t	size
	)

RTEMS Variation on Aligned Memory Allocation.

This method is a help memalign implementation which does all error checking done by posix_memalign() EXCEPT it does NOT place numeric restrictions on the alignment value.

Parameters

[in]	pointer	points to the user pointer
[in]	alignment	is the desired alignment
[in]	size	is the allocation request size in bytes

Returns: This methods returns zero on success and a POSIX errno value to indicate the failure condition. On success *pointer will contain the address of the allocated memory.
