[sr-dev] patch proposal - calloc

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

looking at the patch it seems that the new function does 'malloc' and 
memset to zero of allocated space, am I right? If yes, this is different 
that the standard calloc prototype/behaviour.

It is better to rename it to something else, to let the option open for 
adding an alternative to standard 'calloc'. I would suggest for example 
pkg_mallocz() -- ending z to indicate that the memory chunk is set to 0.

Also, and alternative has to be added for shm manager. Your patch is 
only for pkg, but we have to keep the two coherent. There are some 
components where the memory functions are provided as parameter, and, a 
matter of need, they can be the ones for pkg or shm.

Cheers,
Daniel
