Subject: [RFC 0/4] malloc type argument cleanup (part 1)
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2024 11:23:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240425182738.4771-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
This part documents and provides script to replace the unused
type argument in rte_malloc. The type was intended to be a string
but never implemented, and if it hasn't been implemented in 10 years
it won't be. Too invasive to completely remove it.
Stephen Hemminger (4):
rte_malloc: document that type is unused
devtools/cocci: add script to find unnecessary malloc type
devtools/cocci: add script to find where rte_calloc should be used
eal/malloc: remove type argument from internal malloc routines
