void far *_alloc_boxf (
  void far *box_mem);        /* pool address */

The _alloc_boxf routine allocates a block from the far memory pool box_mem. The memory pool must have been previously initialized using the _init_boxf library routine.

Note

• This routine is reentrant and thread-safe. It may be called from the main function and an interrupt with no restrictions.

The _alloc_boxf routine returns a far pointer to the allocated block (if available) or a NULL pointer if no block is available.
