The following reply was made to PR standards/85090; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Sergey Matveychuk <sem@FreeBSD.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: Stefan Farfeleder <stefanf@FreeBSD.org> Subject: Re: standards/85090: [patch] add memalign() and posix_memalign() functions Date: Tue, 30 Aug 2005 12:13:47 +0400 > - Do we really need memalign()? It looks rather obsolete. I'm not sure really. posix_memalign() is advanced standard extension, but memalign() is not standard at all, but widely used (in a Linux world at least). It could be removed from the patch. But posix_memalign() has a quite strange semantics. Like all other posix_ function have :) -- Sem.
