The current documentation suggests using memalign and valloc which are now considered obsolete, so suggest using posix_memalign instead. Also document the possible error return and errno values for memalign and posix_memalign and improve documentation of __memalign_hook. ChangeLog: 2013-12-16 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org> * manual/memory.texi (Malloc Examples): Clarify default alignment documentation. Suggest posix_memalign rather than memalign or valloc. (Aligned Memory Blocks): Remove suggestion to use memalign or valloc. Remove obsolete comment about BSD. Document memalign errno values and mark the function obsolete. Document posix_memalign returned error codes. Mark valloc as obsolete. (Hooks for Malloc): __memalign_hook is also called for posix_memalign and valloc. (Summary of Malloc): Add posix_memalign to function summary. __memalign_hook is also called for posix_memalign and valloc.
