-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR libsimple_vmemalloc ()
-function is a flexible alternative to standard allocation
-functions.
-.PP
-.I va
-is a list of options that specify the behaviour, its
-end is marked by
-.BR LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_END ,
-the following options (which is the type
-.BR "enum libsimple_memalloc_option" )
-are recognised:
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_ZERO_INIT
-The allocated memory shall be initialisd with NUL bytes.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_CONDITIONAL_ZERO_INIT
-The allocated memory shall be initialisd with NUL bytes
-with the argument, which should be of the type
-.BR int ,
-is nonzero.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_UNIQUE_IF_ZERO
-If attempting to allocate 0 bytes,
-rather than failing with
-.I errno
-set to
-.BR EINVAL ,
-a unique pointer (that can be deallocated)
-should be returned.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_NULL_IF_ZERO
-If attempting to allocate 0 bytes,
-rather than failing with
-.I errno
-set to
-.BR EINVAL ,
-a
-.B NULL
-should be returned.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_ALIGNMENT
-The value of the next argument, which should be of the type
-.BR size_t ,
-should be used as the alignment of the returned pointer.
-By default the alignment is
-.IR "alignof(max_align_t)" .
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_PAGE_ALIGNMENT
-The alignment of the returned pointer should be the page size.
-By default the alignment is
-.IR "alignof(max_align_t)" .
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_ROUND_UP_SIZE_TO_ALIGNMENT
-The number of bytes to allocated should be rounded up to
-the next multiple of the alignment, unless it already is
-a multiple of the alignment.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_ELEMENT_SIZE
-The next argument, which should be of the type
-.BR size_t ,
-shall act as a multiplier for the number of bytes to allocate
-(default multiplier is 1), effectively, making the specified
-allocation size specified in elements rather than in bytes.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_PRODUCT_SIZE
-If
-.I n
-is zero, the product of the following arguments,
-which should be of the type
-.BR size_t ,
-up to the first 0, shall be used as the allocation size.
-If
-.I n
-is not zero, the product of the following
-.I n
-arguments, also of type
-.BR size_t ,
-shall be used as the allocation size.
-By default
-.I n
-bytes are allocated.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_VA_PRODUCT_SIZE
-Like
-.BR LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_PRODUCT_SIZE ,
-the arguments are read from the next argument,
-which should be of the type
-.BR va_list .
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_1_VA_PRODUCT_SIZE
-Like
-.BR LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_PRODUCT_SIZE ,
-except two arguments read from
-.IR ap :
-a
-.BR size_t ,
-which act as the first factor, and a
-.B va_list
-with the rest of the factors.
-.TP
-.B LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_VA_LIST
-Arguments from the next argument, which should be of the type
-.B va_list
-and should end with
-.BR LIBSIMPLE_MEMALLOC_END ,
-shall be parsed as options for the memory allocation.
-.PP
-Each
-.B enum libsimple_memalloc_option
-constant have a self-referencing macros defined
-which can be used to test which constants are defined.
-.PP
-The
-.BR libsimple_envmemalloc ()
-and
-.BR libsimple_evmemalloc ()
-functions are versions of the
-.BR libsimple_vmemalloc ()
-that terminate the process by calling the
-.BR libsimple_enprintf (3)
-(with
-.I status
-as the exit value) and
-.BR libsimple_eprintf (3)
-functions, respectively.
-.PP
-The
-.BR libsimple_memalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_enmemalloc (),
-and
-.BR libsimple_ememalloc ()
-functions are versions of the
-.BR libsimple_vmemalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_envmemalloc (),
-and
-.BR libsimple_evmemalloc ()
-functions, respectively, that use variadic arguments
-instead of
-.BR va_list .
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-The
-.BR libsimple_vmemalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_envmemalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_ememalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_memalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_enmemalloc (),
-and
-.BR libsimple_ememalloc ()
-functions return the a pointer to the allocated
-memory upon successful completion; otherwise the
-.BR libsimple_vmemalloc ()
-and
-.BR libsimple_memalloc ()
-functions return
-.B NULL
-and set
-.I errno
-to indicate the error, whereas the
-.BR libsimple_envmemalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_ememalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_enmemalloc (),
-and
-.BR libsimple_ememalloc ()
-functions terminate the process.
-.SH ERRORS
-The
-.BR libsimple_vmemalloc ()
-and
-.BR libsimple_memalloc ()
-functions will fail if
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-An invalid argument is specified.
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-An option is specified twice or in
-conjunction with a mutually exclusive option.
-.TP
-.B ENOMEM
-Enough memory could not be allocated.
-.PP
-The
-.BR libsimple_envmemalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_ememalloc (),
-.BR libsimple_enmemalloc (),
-and
-.BR libsimple_ememalloc ()
-functions terminate the process on failure.
