[lwip-users] [lwip] mem_realloc bug?

[Earle Clubb]

I noticed that if mem_realloc() in mem.c is called in an attempt to increase
the size of a given memory block, mem_realloc does nothing and returns no
errors.  Is this a bug or is it there by design?

1) Why doesn't mem_realloc have the capability to increase the size of a
memory block?

2) Is there a reason why it should not be added?

3) I believe that an error should be returned if mem_realloc cannot
accomodate the requested new size.
