Subject: [PATCH 4/6] UBIFS: allocate lpt dump buffer on demand
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2011 16:46:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1300113972-4507-5-git-send-email-dedekind1@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1300113972-4507-1-git-send-email-dedekind1@gmail.com>
From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
Instead of using pre-allocated 'c->dbg->buf' buffer in
'dump_lpt_leb()', dynamically allocate it when needed. The intend
is to get rid of the pre-allocated 'c->dbg->buf' buffer and save
128KiB of RAM (or more if PEB size is larger). Indeed, currently we
allocate this memory even if the user never enables any self-check,
which is wasteful.
