Function Documentation

mutt_mem_calloc()

void * mutt_mem_calloc	(	size_t	nmemb,
		size_t	size
	)

Allocate zeroed memory on the heap.

Parameters

nmemb	Number of blocks
size	Size of blocks

Return values

ptr	Memory on the heap

Note

On error, this function will never return NULL. It will print an error and exit the program.

The caller should call mutt_mem_free() to release the memory

Definition at line 51 of file memory.c.

{
  if ((nmemb == 0) || (size == 0))
    return NULL;
 
  void *p = calloc(nmemb, size);
  if (!p)
  {
    mutt_error("%s", strerror(errno)); // LCOV_EXCL_LINE
    mutt_exit(1);                      // LCOV_EXCL_LINE
  }
  return p;
}

Here is the call graph for this function:

mutt_mem_free()

void mutt_mem_free

(

void *

ptr

)

Release memory allocated on the heap.

Parameters

ptr	Memory to release

Definition at line 69 of file memory.c.

{
  if (!ptr)
    return;
  void **p = (void **) ptr;
  if (*p)
  {
    free(*p);
    *p = NULL;
  }
}

mutt_mem_malloc()

void * mutt_mem_malloc

(

size_t

size

)

Allocate memory on the heap.

Parameters

size	Size of block to allocate

Return values

ptr	Memory on the heap

Note

On error, this function will never return NULL. It will print an error and exit the program.

The caller should call mutt_mem_free() to release the memory

Definition at line 91 of file memory.c.

{
  if (size == 0)
    return NULL;
 
  void *p = malloc(size);
  if (!p)
  {
    mutt_error("%s", strerror(errno)); // LCOV_EXCL_LINE
    mutt_exit(1);                      // LCOV_EXCL_LINE
  }
  return p;
}

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

mutt_mem_realloc()

void mutt_mem_realloc	(	void *	ptr,
		size_t	size
	)

Resize a block of memory on the heap.

Parameters

ptr	Memory block to resize
size	New size

Note

On error, this function will never return NULL. It will print an error and exit the program.

If the new size is zero, the block will be freed.

Definition at line 115 of file memory.c.

  if (!ptr)
    return;
 
  void **p = (void **) ptr;
 
  if (size == 0)
  {
    if (*p)
    {
      free(*p);
      *p = NULL;
    }
    return;
  }
 
  void *r = realloc(*p, size);
  if (!r)
  {
    mutt_error("%s", strerror(errno)); // LCOV_EXCL_LINE
    mutt_exit(1);                      // LCOV_EXCL_LINE
  }
 
  *p = r;
