23 /* Return 1 if an array of N objects, each of size S, cannot exist due
24    to size arithmetic overflow.  S must be positive and N must be
25    nonnegative.  This is a macro, not a function, so that it
26    works correctly even when SIZE_MAX < N.
27 
28    By gnulib convention, SIZE_MAX represents overflow in size
29    calculations, so the conservative dividend to use here is
30    SIZE_MAX - 1, since SIZE_MAX might represent an overflowed value.
31    However, malloc (SIZE_MAX) fails on all known hosts where
32    sizeof (ptrdiff_t) <= sizeof (size_t), so do not bother to test for
33    exactly-SIZE_MAX allocations on such hosts; this avoids a test and
34    branch when S is known to be 1.  */
