.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libsimple_rawmemrelem ()
function scans the memory segment
.IR haystack ,
with the size
.IR n*width ,
for the last occurence of the byte string
.I needle
with the size
.IR width ,
and with an offset equivalent to zero modulo
.IR width .
The
.BR libsimple_rawmemrelem ()
function assumes there is at least one
occurence, its behaviour is undefined
if this is not the case.
.PP
The comparison is case-sensitive.
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR libsimple_rawmemrelem ()
function returns the pointer
.I s
with a maximal 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, the behaviour is undefined.
.SH ERRORS
The
.BR libsimple_rawmemrelem ()
function cannot fail.
