# =========================================================================== # http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_func_posix_memalign.html # =========================================================================== # # SYNOPSIS # # AX_FUNC_POSIX_MEMALIGN # # DESCRIPTION # # Some versions of posix_memalign (notably glibc 2.2.5) incorrectly apply # their power-of-two check to the size argument, not the alignment # argument. AX_FUNC_POSIX_MEMALIGN defines HAVE_POSIX_MEMALIGN if the # power-of-two check is correctly applied to the alignment argument. # # LICENSE # # Copyright (c) 2008 Scott Pakin # # Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are # permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice # and this notice are preserved.
