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

32 | - for huge N (say, N >= 65536) - you never know how large (or small)

34 | request, the program just crashes.
