[SR-Users] What is the alignment of shm_malloc and friends?

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

iirc, the alignment is to sizeof(void*), which is 8.

I haven't met cases when the alignment is required to be different that
the size of the pointer/memory address. Any particular reason for
wolfssl to require that?
