MB here...

...and inconsistent on MiB vs MB here.  If we're going to use MiB (which
is the correct term), it would be worth using it everywhere.

I prefer EXIT_FAILURE, but that's a change for another patch (you're
just following conventions).

More efficient as 'if (!*mem_str)'...

...either that, or cache your strlen() result so you only call it once.
