NAME

6       bson_aligned_alloc - bson_aligned_alloc()
7

SYNOPSIS

9          void *
10          bson_aligned_alloc (size_t alignment, size_t num_bytes);
11

PARAMETERS

13       • alignment:  The alignment of the allocated bytes of memory. Must be a
14         power of 2 and a multiple of sizeof (void *).
15
16       • num_bytes: The number of bytes to allocate. Must  be  a  multiple  of
17         alignment.
18

DESCRIPTION

20       This is a portable aligned_alloc() wrapper.
21
22       In   general,   this  function  will  return  an  allocation  at  least
23       sizeof(void*) bytes or bigger with an alignment of at least alignment.
24
25       If there was a failure to allocate num_bytes bytes  aligned  to  align‐
26       ment, the process will be aborted.
27
28       WARNING:
29          This function will abort on failure to allocate memory.
