Dear all,

In my program I am communicating with FPGA and for proper communication I am stuck to allocating very large memory during calling data from FPGA to computer through PCIe.

One way I thought is to partially free the initial bytes of data. For example If I allocate 50 M-Byte or even slightly more, of memory (which is LOOOOOTTTT), hence I plan to free 4096 Bytes each time that data is fetched and stored in file. This way at least some of the memory is free for other programs to run...

I check on internet and it seems that it is not possible the easy way... see here

But Is there any method to do so...


Bests,
Shan
