+.SH NAME
+cpg_zcb_alloc \- Allocates a zero copy buffer
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <corosync/cpg.h>
+.sp
+.BI "int cpg_zcb_alloc(cpg_handle_t " handle ", size_t " size ", void **" buffer ");
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B cpg_zcb_alloc
+function will allocate a zero copy buffer for use with the
+.B cpg_zcb_mcast_joined(3)
+function. This buffer should not be used in another thread while a
+cpg_zcb_mcast_joined operation is taking place on the buffer. The buffer is
+allocated via operating system mechanisms to avoid copying in the IPC layer.
+
+.PP
+The argument
+.I handle
+describes the handle on which the buffer will be allocated.
+.PP
+The argument
+.I size
+requests a buffer of size be allocated.
+.PP
+The
+.I buffer
+argument is set to the buffer address that is allocated by this operation.
+
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+This call returns the CS_OK value if successful, otherwise an error is returned.
+.PP
+.SH ERRORS
+The errors are undocumented.
