/* An alignment object, used for aligning memchunks to multiples of
 * the frame size. */

/* Method of operation: the user creates a new mcalign object by
 * calling pa_mcalign_new() with the appropriate aligning
 * granularity. After that he may call pa_mcalign_push() for an input
 * memchunk. After exactly one memchunk the user has to call
 * pa_mcalign_pop() until it returns -1. If pa_mcalign_pop() returns
 * 0, the memchunk *c is valid and aligned to the granularity. Some
 * pseudocode illustrating this:
 *
 * pa_mcalign *a = pa_mcalign_new(4, NULL);
 *
 * for (;;) {
 *   pa_memchunk input;
 *
 *   ... fill input ...
 *
 *   pa_mcalign_push(m, &input);
 *   pa_memblock_unref(input.memblock);
 *
 *   for (;;) {
 *     pa_memchunk output;
 *
 *     if (pa_mcalign_pop(m, &output) < 0)
 *       break;
 *
 *     ... consume output ...
 *
 *     pa_memblock_unref(output.memblock);
 *   }
 * }
 *
 * pa_memchunk_free(a);
