/* alignof (TYPE), also known as _Alignof (TYPE), yields the alignment
35
requirement of a structure member (i.e., slot or field) that is of
36
type TYPE, as an integer constant expression.
38
This differs from GCC's __alignof__ operator, which can yield a
39
better-performing alignment for an object of that type. For
40
example, on x86 with GCC, __alignof__ (double) and __alignof__
41
(long long) are 8, whereas alignof (double) and alignof (long long)
42
are 4 unless the option '-malign-double' is used.
44
The result cannot be used as a value for an 'enum' constant, if you
45
want to be portable to HP-UX 10.20 cc and AIX 3.2.5 xlc. */

/* alignas (A), also known as _Alignas (A), aligns a variable or type
57
to the alignment A, where A is an integer constant expression. For
61
struct s { int a; int alignas (8) bar; };
63
aligns the address of FOO and the offset of BAR to be multiples of 8.
65
A should be a power of two that is at least the type's alignment
66
and at most the implementation's alignment limit. This limit is
67
2**28 on typical GNUish hosts, and 2**13 on MSVC. To be portable
68
to MSVC through at least version 10.0, A should be an integer
69
constant, as MSVC does not support expressions such as 1 << 3.
70
To be portable to Sun C 5.11, do not align auto variables to
71
anything stricter than their default alignment.
73
The following C11 requirements are not supported here:
75
- If A is zero, alignas has no effect.
76
- alignas can be used multiple times; the strictest one wins.
77
- alignas (TYPE) is equivalent to alignas (alignof (TYPE)).
