From 73d9aec3fd212d7bf8af5aa1eca9c79f8a90ad5a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Artem Bityutskiy Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2011 15:39:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] UBIFS: allocate dump buffer on demand Instead of using pre-allocated 'c->dbg->buf' buffer in 'dbg_dump_leb()', dynamically allocate it when needed. The intend is to get rid of the pre-allocated 'c->dbg->buf' buffer and save 128KiB of RAM (or more if PEB size is larger). Indeed, currently we allocate this memory even if the user never enables any self-check, which is wasteful.
