-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR libsimple_memdup ()
-function constructs allocates memory and copies
-.I n
-first bytes from
-.I s
-into the new allocation.
-.PP
-The
-.BR libsimple_enmemdup ()
-and
-.BR libsimple_ememdup ()
-functions are versions of the
-.BR libsimple_memdup ()
-function that call the
-.BR libsimple_enprintf (3)
-function on failure, causing the process to print
-an error message and exit. See
-.BR libsimple_enprintf (3)
-for more information.
-.PP
-The
-.BR libsimple_memdupa ()
-function is implemented as a macro and is a version
-of the
-.BR libsimple_memdup ()
-function that uses allocates the memory on the stack
-rather than on the heap, causing the return pointer
-to become invalid when the calling function returns.
-It is only available when compling with GCC or Clang.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-Upon successful completion, the
-.BR libsimple_memdupa (),
-.BR libsimple_memdup (),
-.BR libsimple_enmemdup (),
-and
-.BR libsimple_ememdup ()
-functions return a non-null pointer, on failure the
-.BR libsimple_memdup ()
-function returns
-.B NULL
-and set
-.I errno
-to indicate the error, and the
-.BR libsimple_enmemdup (),
-and
-.BR libsimple_ememdup ()
-functions exit the process. The
-.BR libsimple_memdupa ()
-function cannot fail, however the kernel
-can kill the thread, and possibly the process, with a
-.B SIGSEGV
-signal if the memory cannot be allocated.
-.PP
-The returned pointer should be deallocated when it
-is no longer needed, except for the pointer returned
-by the
-.BR libsimple_memdupa ()
-function, it is automatically deallocated when the
-calling function returns.
-.SH ERRORS
-The
-.BR libsimple_memdup ()
-function may fail for any reason specified for the
-.BR alloc (3)
-function.
