[PATCH v2 2/7] tlsf: ensure malloc pool is aligned

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The struct control_t describing a pool is allocated at its very start
and then directly followed by the first block. To ensure the first block
is suitably aligned, align_up the size in tlsf_size(). So far, TLSF on
32-bit and 64-bit happened to be aligned, so this introduces no
functional change just yet. With upcoming changes to the block header to
increase alignment on 32-bit systems, this realignment will become required.
