Detailed Description

Dynamic memory manager

This is a lightweight replacement for the standard C library malloc().

If you want to use the standard C library malloc() instead, define MEM_LIBC_MALLOC to 1 in your lwipopts.h

To let mem_malloc() use pools (prevents fragmentation and is much faster than a heap but might waste some memory), define MEM_USE_POOLS to 1, define MEM_USE_CUSTOM_POOLS to 1 and create a file "lwippools.h" that includes a list of pools like this (more pools can be added between _START and _END):

Define three pools with sizes 256, 512, and 1512 bytes LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL_START LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL(20, 256) LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL(10, 512) LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL(5, 1512) LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL_END
