Description Sanju 2019-01-03 14:41:37 UTC
Description of problem:
In the entire code base, many structures are allocating the memory statically. Instead we can allocate memory dynamically.

One such structure is:
struct glusterd_brickinfo {
    char hostname[NAME_MAX];
    char path[VALID_GLUSTERD_PATHMAX];
    char real_path[VALID_GLUSTERD_PATHMAX];
    char device_path[VALID_GLUSTERD_PATHMAX];
    char mount_dir[VALID_GLUSTERD_PATHMAX];
    char brick_id[1024];   /*Client xlator name, AFR changelog name*/
    char fstype[NAME_MAX]; /* Brick file-system type */
    char mnt_opts[1024];   /* Brick mount options */
..
