[lwip-devel] [bug #50040] pbuf_alloc(..., 65534, PBUF_RAM) succedes

[David van Moolenbroek]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #50040 (project lwip):

Hmm, fair enough.. so just to update my own view on this bug then.. mem_size_t
is 16-bit on 1) pool-based configs and 2) memory-constrained heap-based
configs. If in the case of #1 such large allocations (e.g. the udp_input case)
themselves are considered the real problem (see my lwip-devel reply regarding
a way forward there, assuming the mail gets through), and #2 is not expected
to handle full-sized packets, then the mem_size_t definition is fine as it is
and all that is needed is an extra overflow check.
