            Bug ID: 117
           Summary: in case of malloc_elem_alloc should we increment
                    alloc_count (heap->alloc_count++)?
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 18.11
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: CONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: core
          Assignee: dev at dpdk.org
          Reporter: vipin.varghese at intel.com
  Target Milestone: ---

file: lib/librte_eal/common/malloc_heap.c
function: heap_alloc

code snippet:

        elem = find_suitable_element(heap, size, flags, align, bound, contig);
        if (elem != NULL) {
                elem = malloc_elem_alloc(elem, size, align, bound, contig);

                /* increase heap's count of allocated elements */
                heap->alloc_count++;
        }

        return elem == NULL ? NULL : (void *)(&elem[1]);


is this expected behavior to update counter even if it fails?
