Re: malloc : just to be sure



i've got some wired memory problem.
malloc'ed data changes and i can't figure out why.

so just to be sure and not waste more hours on this:

can i use malloc in a driver like in a normal user-process?

I do not know the answer for sure (although my guess is: it should not
be a problem, only standard input and output seem to be issues with
drivers), but I notice that you are posting using Google Groups. Many
people here seem to filter out posts originating from Google due to
spam. If you want to be sure your message is read, consider re-posting
using an NNTP client, such as Mozilla Thunderbird.
