NAME
    AllocEntry -- allocate many regions of memory

SYNOPSIS
    memList = AllocEntry(memList)
    D0                   A0

    struct MemList *AllocEntry(struct MemList *);

FUNCTION
    This function takes a memList structure and allocates enough memory
    to hold the required memory as well as a MemList structure to keep
    track of it.

    These MemList structures may be linked together in a task control
    block to keep track of the total memory usage of this task. (See
    the description of TC_MEMENTRY under RemTask).

INPUTS
    memList -- A MemList structure filled in with MemEntry structures.

RESULTS
    memList -- A different MemList filled in with the actual memory
        allocated in the me_Addr field, and their sizes in me_Length.
        If enough memory cannot be obtained, then the requirements of
        the allocation that failed is returned and bit 31 is set.

        WARNING: The result is unusual!  Bit 31 indicates faulure.

EXAMPLES
    The user wants five regions of 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 bytes in size
    with requirements of MEMF_CLEAR, MEMF_PUBLIC, MEMF_CHIP!MEMF_CLEAR,
    MEMF_CLEAR, and MEMF_PUBLIC!MEMF_CLEAR respectively.  The
    following code fragment would do that:

        MemListDecl:
            DS.B    LN_SIZE             * reserve space for list node
            DC.W    5                   * number of entries
            DC.L    MEMF_CLEAR                  * entry #0
            DC.L    2
            DC.L    MEMF_PUBLIC                 * entry #1
            DC.L    4
            DC.L    MEMF_CHIP!MEMF_CLEAR        * entry #2
            DC.L    8
            DC.L    MEMF_CLEAR                  * entry #3
            DC.L    16
            DC.L    MEMF_PUBLIC!MEMF_CLEAR      * entry #4
            DC.L    32

        start:
            LEA.L   MemListDecl(PC),A0
            JSR     _LVOAllocEntry(a6)
            BCLR.L  #31,D0
            BEQ.S   success

            ------- Type of memory that we failed on is in D0

BUGS
    If any one of the allocations fails, this function fails to back
    out fully.  This is fixed by the "SetPatch" program on V1.3
    Workbench disks.
