Gnulib module: reallocarray
@mindex reallocarray

Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
This function is missing on many platforms:
glibc 2.25, macOS 14, FreeBSD 10, NetBSD 7, OpenBSD 5.5, Minix 3.3.0, AIX 7.2, HP-UX 11, Solaris 11.4, Cygwin 1.7.x, mingw, MSVC 14, Android 9.0.

@item
On some platforms, @code{reallocarray (p, n, s)} can succeed even if
multiplying @code{n} by @code{s} would exceed @code{PTRDIFF_MAX},
which can lead to undefined behavior later:
FreeBSD 13, NetBSD 9, OpenBSD 6, musl 1.2.
@end itemize

Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
It is not portable to call
@code{reallocarray (p, n, s)} when either @code{n} or @code{s} is zero,
as @code{reallocarray} has the same issues with zero sizes
that @code{realloc} does.  @xref{realloc}.
