vcalloc seems to exist, is there a reason array_size() is preferred?

Hi,

just for your information, I've just sent [1].

For some reason, I have only received Christophe's mail, not Jakub's...

In any case, thanks for pointing out the existence of these functions. I
just redid what Kees did in 2018, when I guess these functions didn't
exist. I will look more carefully to see what functions are now available
and resend the whole thing.

Hi,

should you want to go 1 step further and simplify some code:

git grep v[mz]alloc.*array_size\( | wc -l
174

CJ


Thanks!
