Allocate at specific address

[o1vk4iN6]

I know windows has VirtualAlloc() and was wondering what the unix equivalent is for use with android and iOS?

You shouldn't think of VirtualAlloc as an allocator that allocates at a specific address (because it doesn't). You should think of it as the system allocator. The equivalent in Unix is malloc.

I'd say mmap() with MAP_ANONYMOUS is a bit closer to VirtualAlloc() that malloc()
