SYNOPSIS

          void *
          bson_aligned_alloc0 (size_t alignment, size_t num_bytes);

PARAMETERS

       • alignment:  The  alignment  of the allocated bytes of memory. Must be a power of 2 and a
         multiple of sizeof (void *).

       • num_bytes: The number of bytes to allocate. Must be a multiple of alignment.

DESCRIPTION

       This is a portable aligned_alloc() wrapper that also sets the memory to zero.

       In general, this function will return an allocation at least sizeof(void*) bytes or bigger
       with an alignment of at least alignment.

       If  there was a failure to allocate num_bytes bytes aligned to alignment, the process will
       be aborted.

       WARNING:
          This function will abort on failure to allocate memory.

RETURNS

       A pointer to a memory region which HAS been zeroed.
