fill_buf's arguments can be improved in multiple ways: - Multiple functions in fill_buf have start_ptr as one of their argument which is a bit long and the extra "start" is pretty obvious when it comes to pointers. - Some of the functions take end_ptr and others size_t to indicate the end of the buffer. - Some arguments meaning buffer size are called just 's' - mem_flush() takes void * but immediately converts it to char * Cleanup the parameters to make things simpler and more consistent: - Rename start_ptr to simply buf as it's shorter. - Replace end_ptr and s parameters with buf_size and only calculate end_ptr in the functions that truly use it. - Make mem_flush() parameters to follow the same convention as the other functions in fill_buf. - convert mem_flush() char * to unsigned char *. While at it, fix also a typo in a comment.
