_aligned_offset_realloc_dbg
Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc (debug version only).
Syntax
void * _aligned_offset_realloc_dbg(
void *memblock,
size_t size,
size_t alignment,
size_t offset,
const char *filename,
int linenumber
);
Parameters
memblock
The current memory block pointer.
size
The size of the memory allocation.
alignment
The alignment value, which must be an integer power of 2.
offset
The offset into the memory allocation to force the alignment.
filename
Pointer to the name of the source file that requested the aligned_offset_realloc operation or NULL.
linenumber
Line number in the source file where the aligned_offset_realloc operation was requested or NULL.
Return value
_aligned_offset_realloc_dbg returns a void pointer to the reallocated (and possibly moved) memory block. The return value is NULL if the size is zero and the buffer argument isn't NULL, or if there isn't enough available memory to expand the block to the given size. In the first case, the original block is freed. In the second case, the original block is unchanged. The return value points to a storage space that's suitably aligned for storage of any type of object. To get a pointer to a type other than void, use a type cast on the return value.
Remarks
_aligned_offset_realloc_dbg is a debug version of the _aligned_offset_realloc function. When _DEBUG isn't defined, each call to _aligned_offset_realloc_dbg is reduced to a call to _aligned_offset_realloc. Both _aligned_offset_realloc and _aligned_offset_realloc_dbg reallocate a memory block in the base heap, but _aligned_offset_realloc_dbg accommodates several debugging features: buffers on either side of the user portion of the block to test for leaks, and filename/linenumber information to determine the origin of allocation requests. Tracking specific allocation types with a block type parameter isn't a supported debug feature for aligned allocations. Aligned allocations will appear as a _NORMAL_BLOCK block type.
Like _aligned_offset_malloc, _aligned_offset_realloc_dbg allows a structure to be aligned at an offset within the structure.
_realloc_dbg reallocates the specified memory block with slightly more space than the requested newSize. newSize might be greater or less than the size of the originally allocated memory block. The extra space is used by the debug heap manager to link the debug memory blocks and to provide the application with debug header information and overwrite buffers. The reallocation might both move the original memory block to a different location in the heap, and also change the size of the memory block. If the memory block is moved, the contents of the original block are overwritten.
This function sets errno to ENOMEM if the memory allocation failed or if the requested size was greater than _HEAP_MAXREQ. For more information about errno, see errno, _doserrno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr. Also, _aligned_offset_realloc_dbg validates its parameters. If alignment isn't a power of 2 or if offset is non-zero and greater than or equal to size, this function invokes the invalid parameter handler, as described in Parameter validation. If execution is allowed to continue, this function returns NULL and sets errno to EINVAL.
