Description Sergey Lapin 2006-12-13 03:18:45 UTC

Some glib function, includeing g_file_read_link, reallocate memory,
etc. providing memory fragmentation.
This patch replaces these calls which reduces problems (especially for low
memory embedded devices).

Created attachment 8085 [details] [review]
replaces g_file_read_link function to reduce memory fragmentation

Attached a patch which replaces g_file_read_link and others to reduce memory
fragmentation. Also, it uses static buffers where possible, for the same
purpose.
