Currently, * this module can be used only to allocate and free memory in the RAM. * * The Memory Manager manages static memory blocks of fixed sizes. These blocks can be requested for * usage, and freed when the application no longer needs them. A maximum of seven block categories * can be managed by the module. These block categories are identified by xxsmall, xmall, small, * medium, large, xlarge, and xxlarge. They are ordered in increasing block sizes. * The size and the count of each of the block categories can be configured based on the application * requirements in the configuration file @c sdk_config.h. * To use fewer than seven buffer pools, do not define the count for the unwanted block * or explicitly set it to zero. At least one block category must be configured * for this module to function as expected. */ #ifndef MEM_MANAGER_H__ #define MEM_MANAGER_H__ #include "sdk_common.h" #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif /**@brief Initializes Memory Manager. * * @details API to initialize the Memory Manager.
