Functions provided by the rtl_malloc.o module:

void *rt_malloc (size_t size);
void *rt_calloc (size_t nelem, size_t elem_size);
void rt_free (void *ptr);
void *rt_realloc (void *p, size_t new_len);


#define malloc rt_malloc
#define free rt_free
#define realloc rt_realloc
#define calloc rt_calloc

free() function do not perform any validation checks. The pointer
passed must have been returned by a previous call to malloc(),
calloc() or realloc().  Otherwise, or if free(ptr) has already been
called before, undefined behaviour occurs.


When the rtl_malloc module is loaded, the default memory pool
allocated is 1Mb. You can change the memory pool with the module
parameter "max_size". For a 512Kb initial memory pool:
# insmod rtl_malloc.o  max_size=512
