means there is a real alloca function. */ | |
/* alloca (N) returns a pointer to N bytes of memory | |
allocated on the stack, which will last until the function returns. | |
Use of alloca should be avoided: | |
- inside arguments of function calls - undefined behaviour, | |
- in inline functions - the allocation may actually last until the | |
calling function returns, | |
- for huge N (say, N >= 65536) - you never know how large (or small) | |
the stack is, and when the stack cannot fulfill the memory allocation | |
request, the program just crashes. | |
