It is not possible to specify the alignment of functions; the alignment
of functions is determined by the machine's requirements and cannot be
changed. You cannot specify alignment for a typedef name because such a
name is just an alias, not a distinct type.
As in the preceding examples, you can explicitly specify the alignment As in the preceding examples, you can explicitly specify the alignment
