The fragment size previously used by the sma layer to decide whether to split a block was 80 bytes This could result in small free blocks that could never be allocated and had to be checked with each call to find_block(). |
The minimum allocation size previously used by the sma layer was too small. This could lead to small free blocks that could not be used for any allocation. To keep separation of layers, the expected minimum allocation size is now passed to apc_sma_init().
