Oops. the main line should be "int main(int argc, char * argv)" as usual.
This code originally came from the Cell BE Processor.
> free doesn't free all memory alloced by memalign. This is causing my

> This bug exists in newlib too.

> code example:
> =======================================
> #include <malloc.h>
> #include <stdio.h>
>
> static void printMemUsage()
> {
> struct mallinfo mi;
> mi = mallinfo();
> printf("MemUsage: %d\n", mi.arena);
> }
>
> int main(unsigned long long spe_id, unsigned long long
> program_data_ea, unsigned long long env)
> {
> printMemUsage();
> void * dyn_mem = memalign(16, 65535);
> printMemUsage();
> free(dyn_mem);
> printMemUsage();
> return 0;
> }
> =====================================
> compile with:
> gcc main.c
> =====================================
> run:
> #./a.out
> MemUsage: 0
> MemUsage: 200704
> MemUsage: 135168
