> Subject: [PATCH v1] common/mlx5/linux: replace malloc and free in glue
>
> This commit replaces mlx5_malloc and mlx5_free calls with Linux calls
> malloc and free in file mlx5_glue.c.
> The current mlx5_malloc calls have no flags, alignment or socket
> selection, so they are equivalent to calling malloc. Rdma core itself
> is using malloc. When using mlx5_malloc the glue library is dependent
> on common_mlx5 library which must be compiled first. Not doing so and
> in case ibverbs_link=dlopen will result in compilation failure:
> mlx5_glue.c: undefined reference to `mlx5_malloc'.
> To make all of this simpler and remove the common_mlx5 dependency - this
> commit does the alloc/free replacements.
