I understand that 'realloc' is unavailable on the custom freertos.

If you want a 'hack' to get it running, you could probably implement the 'realloc' function as a wrapper over 'malloc' and 'free'?

I was thinking to request a bigger chunk of memory in one shot from the system and later custom allocator will keep allocating and free memory chunk from that. 

Looking forward to hear from you guys.
