From f1c6a8ca0511c623a16bb804ed2c5b6c26c83d78 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Kalnischkies Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2009 01:03:15 +0200 Subject: [contrib/mmap] implements a theoretical dynamic growing mmap based on Michael Vogts patch in #195018 this commit implements the use of mmap (as preferred) instead of a static char array. In theory this made it possible to grow the mmap as needed, but as it is currently impossible to move the mmap around in the memory the grow is likely to fail but it improve the memory usage a bit, so it is not totally useless for now - and maybe we can adjust the pointers in the future... --- debian/changelog | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'debian') diff --git a/debian/changelog b/debian/changelog index 412435fad..27b798fe5 100644 --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -34,6 +34,8 @@ apt (0.7.22) UNRELEASED; urgency=low correctly when downloading from multiple sites (Closes: #534752) * add the various foldmarkers in apt-pkg & cmdline (no code change) * versions with a pin of -1 shouldn't be a candidate (Closes: #355237) + * prefer mmap as memory allocator in MMap instead of a static char + array which can (at least in theory) grow dynamic [ Michael Vogt ] * honor the dpkg hold state in new Marker hooks (closes: #64141) -- cgit v1.2.3
