Function Documentation

◆ malloc_irq_safe()

int malloc_irq_safe ( void )

Determine if it is safe to call malloc() in an IRQ context.

This function checks the value of the internal spinlock that is used for malloc() to ensure that a call to it will not freeze the running process. This is only really useful in an IRQ context to ensure that a call to malloc() (or some other memory allocation function) won't cause a deadlock.

Return values

1	If it is safe to call malloc() in the current IRQ.
0	Otherwise.

◆ mem_check_all()

int mem_check_all ( void )

Only available with KM_DBG.

◆ mem_check_block()

int mem_check_block ( void * p )
