Typically, the header is not present. Headers allow for other
data structures to be built atop CLIB vectors.
- Users may specify the alignment for data elements via the
- vec_*_aligned macros.
+ Users may specify the alignment for first data element of a vector
+ via the vec_*_aligned macros.
- Vectors elements can be any C type e.g. (int, double, struct bar).
+ Vector elements can be any C type e.g. (int, double, struct bar).
This is also true for data types built atop vectors (e.g. heap,
pool, etc.).
- Many macros have _a variants supporting alignment of vector data
- and _h variants supporting non zero length vector headers.
- The _ha variants support both.
+ Many macros have \_a variants supporting alignment of vector elements
+ and \_h variants supporting non-zero-length vector headers. The \_ha
+ variants support both. Additionally cacheline alignment within a
+ vector element structure can be specified using the
+ CLIB_CACHE_LINE_ALIGN_MARK() macro.
Standard programming error: memorize a pointer to the ith element
of a vector then expand it. Vectors expand by 3/2, so such code
