Subject: [PATCH 3/9] tlsf: ensure malloc pool is aligned
Date: Tue,  4 Oct 2022 17:54:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221004155405.3458479-4-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221004155405.3458479-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>

The struct control_t describing a pool is allocated at its very start
and then directly followed by the first block. To ensure the first block
is suitably aligned, align_up the size in tlsf_size(). So far, TLSF on
32-bit and 64-bit happened to be aligned, so this introduces no
functional change just yet. With upcoming changes to the block header to
increase alignment on 32-bit systems, this realignment will become required.
