common/mlx5: wrap memory allocation on Linux
mlx5_malloc() API has an alignment parameter for system memory allocations. malloc() is called for non-aligned allocations and posix_memalign() is called for aligned allocations. When calling mlx5_free() there is no distinction whether the memory was originally allocated with or without alignment. Freeing a memory may be handled differently by operating systems. Therefore this commit wraps these APIs with OS specific calls: mlx5_os_malloc(), mlx5_os_free(). Signed-off-by: Ophir Munk <ophirmu@nvidia.com> Acked-by: Matan Azrad <matan@nvidia.com>
