00003  * Dynamic memory manager
00004  *
00005  * This is a lightweight replacement for the standard C library malloc().
00006  *
00007  * If you want to use the standard C library malloc() instead, define
00008  * MEM_LIBC_MALLOC to 1 in your lwipopts.h
00009  *
00010  * To let mem_malloc() use pools (prevents fragmentation and is much faster than
00011  * a heap but might waste some memory), define MEM_USE_POOLS to 1, define
00012  * MEM_USE_CUSTOM_POOLS to 1 and create a file "lwippools.h" that includes a list
00013  * of pools like this (more pools can be added between _START and _END):
00014  *
00015  * Define three pools with sizes 256, 512, and 1512 bytes
00016  * LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL_START
00017  * LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL(20, 256)
00018  * LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL(10, 512)
00019  * LWIP_MALLOC_MEMPOOL(5, 1512)
