+.Sh NAME
+.Nm posix_memalign
+.Nd aligned memory allocation
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In stdlib.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn posix_memalign "void **ptr" "size_t alignment" "size_t size"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn posix_memalign
+function allocates
+.Fa size
+bytes of memory such that the allocation's base address is a multiple of
+.Fa alignment ,
+and returns the allocation in the value pointed to by
+.Fa ptr .
+.Pp
+The requested
+.Fa alignment
+must be a power of 2 at least as large as
+.Fn sizeof "void *" .
+.Pp
+Memory that is allocated via
+.Fn posix_memalign
+can be used as an argument in subsequent calls to
+.Xr realloc 3
+and
+.Xr free 3 .
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Fn posix_memalign
+function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise it returns an error value.
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn posix_memalign
+function will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EINVAL
+The
+.Fa alignment
+parameter is not a power of 2 at least as large as
+.Fn sizeof "void *" .
+.It Bq Er ENOMEM
+Memory allocation error.

+.Xr free 3 ,
+.Xr malloc 3 ,
+.Xr realloc 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn posix_memalign
+function conforms to
+.St -p1003.1-2001 .
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Fn posix_memalign
+function first appeared in
+.Ox 4.8 .
