Subject: [9fans] allocb question
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 3b830358-eace-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025

I'm allocating a block that has special alignment requirements.
I'm doing the following:

         Block *bp;

         bp = iallocb(EthBufSz + 64);
         if(bp)
                 bp->rp = (uchar*)ROUNDUP((ulong)bp->rp, 64);
         return bp;

which seems to work, but feels a little dirty.  Is this
the right way to do this or is there another mechanism
I should be using?
