.SH NAME
libsimple_memelem_inv \- find different aligned byte string in memory
.SH SYNOPSIS

#include <libsimple.h>
void *libsimple_memelem_inv(const void *\fIhaystack\fP, const void *\fIneedle\fP, size_t \fIwidth\fP, size_t \fIn\fP);

.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libsimple_memelem_inv ()
function scans the memory segment
.IR haystack ,
with the size
.IR n*width ,
for the first occurence of a byte string
different from
.I needle
with the size
.IR width ,
and with an offset equivalent to zero modulo
.IR width .
.PP
The comparison is case-sensitive.
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR libsimple_memelem_inv ()
function returns the pointer
.I s
with a minimal offset such that
.IR memcmp(r,needle,width) ,
where
.I r
is the returned pointer, and such that
the offset is equivalent to zero modulo
.IR width .
If no such offset exists,
.B NULL
is returned.
.SH ERRORS
The
.BR libsimple_memelem_inv ()
function cannot fail.
