-.SH NAME
-mempcpy, wmempcpy  \- copy memory area
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.BR "#define _GNU_SOURCE" "         /* See feature_test_macros(7) */"
-.br
-.B #include <string.h>
-.sp
-.BI "void *mempcpy(void *" dest ", const void *" src ", size_t " n );

-.BR "#define _GNU_SOURCE" "         /* See feature_test_macros(7) */"

-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR mempcpy ()
-function is nearly identical to the
-.BR memcpy (3)
-function.
-It copies
-.I n
-bytes from the object beginning at
-.I src
-into the object pointed to by
-.IR dest .
-But instead of returning the value of
-.I dest
-it returns a pointer to the byte following the last written byte.
-.PP
-This function is useful in situations where a number of objects
-shall be copied to consecutive memory positions.
-.PP
-The
-.BR wmempcpy ()
-function is identical but takes
-.I wchar_t
-type arguments and copies
-.I n
-wide characters.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-.I dest
-+
-.IR n .
-.SH VERSIONS
-.BR mempcpy ()
-first appeared in glibc in version 2.1.
-.SH ATTRIBUTES
-.SS Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
-The
-.BR mempcpy ()
-and
-.BR wmempcpy ()
-functions are thread-safe.
-.SH CONFORMING TO
-This function is a GNU extension.
-.SH EXAMPLE
-.nf
-void *
-combine(void *o1, size_t s1, void *o2, size_t s2)
-{
-    void *result = malloc(s1 + s2);
-    if (result != NULL)
-        mempcpy(mempcpy(result, o1, s1), o2, s2);
-    return result;
