The following C run-time functions support data alignment.
| Routine | Use |
|---|---|
| _aligned_free | Frees a block of memory that was allocated with _aligned_mallocor _aligned_offset_malloc. |
| _aligned_free_dbg | Frees a block of memory that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc (debug only). |
| _aligned_malloc | Allocates memory on a specified alignment boundary. |
| _aligned_malloc_dbg | Allocates memory on a specified alignment boundary with additional space for a debugging header and overwrite buffers (debug version only). |
| _aligned_msize | Returns the size of a memory block allocated in the heap. |
| _aligned_msize_dbg | Returns the size of a memory block allocated in the heap (debug version only). |
| _aligned_offset_malloc | Allocates memory on a specified alignment boundary. |
| _aligned_offset_malloc_dbg | Allocates memory on a specified alignment boundary (debug version only). |
| _aligned_offset_realloc | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc. |
| _aligned_offset_realloc_dbg | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc (debug version only). |
| _aligned_offset_recalloc | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc and initializes the memory to 0. |
| _aligned_offset_recalloc_dbg | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc and initializes the memory to 0 (debug version only). |
| _aligned_realloc | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc. |
| _aligned_realloc_dbg | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc (debug version only). |
| _aligned_recalloc | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc and initializes the memory to 0. |
| _aligned_recalloc_dbg | Changes the size of a memory block that was allocated with _aligned_malloc or _aligned_offset_malloc and initializes the memory to 0 (debug version only). |
