Benjamin Peterson <benja...@python.org> added the comment: My suggestion would be to pass alignof(type) into the allocator via macro. Then the allocator could at least assert it's providing good enough alignment if not provide the correct alignment.
I believe 16-byte alignment is special because it's glibc's malloc's default. So "normal" code shouldn't really be expecting anything better than 16-byte alignment. Code with higher alignment requirements will have to use APIs like the one proposed in #18835. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue27987> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
