Parameters

heapid	- The UID of the heap to allocate from.
size	- The number of bytes to allocate.

Returns

The address of the allocated memory block, or NULL on error.

sceKernelCreateHeap()

SceUID sceKernelCreateHeap	(	SceUID	partitionid,
		SceSize	size,
		int	unk,
		const char *	name
	)

Create a heap.

Parameters

partitionid	- The UID of the partition where allocate the heap.
size	- The size in bytes of the heap.
unk	- Unknown, probably some flag or type, pass 1.
name	- Name assigned to the new heap.

Returns

The UID of the new heap, or if less than 0 an error.
