Alignment of returned address from malloc()

Hi, guys,

I am using icc 15.0.2 which is compatible to gcc 4.4.7. Whenever I allocate a memory space with malloc function, the address is aligned by 16 bytes. I know gcc's malloc provides the alignment for 64-bit processors. Does the icc malloc function support the same alignment of address? I think it is related to the quality of vectorization and I definitely need to make sure the malloc function of icc also supports the alignment.
