| 28 | Use of alloca should be avoided: | |
| 29 | - inside arguments of function calls - undefined behaviour, | |
| 30 | - in inline functions - the allocation may actually last until the | |
| 31 | calling function returns, | |
| 32 | - for huge N (say, N >= 65536) - you never know how large (or small) | |

| 34 | request, the program just crashes. | |
