[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v8 14/21] malloc: allow removing memory from named heaps

Mon Oct 1 14:56:22 CEST 2018


Add an API to remove memory from specified heaps. This will first
check if all elements within the region are free, and that the
region is the original region that was added to the heap (by
comparing its length to length of memory addressed by the
underlying memseg list).
