+call @code{arena_get_retry} to select an alternate arena in which to
+retry the allocation.  Argument @var{$arg1} is the amount of memory
+requested by the user; in the @code{calloc} case, that is the total size
+computed from both function arguments.  In the @code{realloc} case,
+@var{$arg2} is the pointer to the memory area being resized.  In the

 @deftp Probe memory_arena_new (void *@var{$arg1}, size_t @var{$arg2})
 This probe is triggered when @code{malloc} allocates and initializes an
 additional arena (not the main arena), but before the arena is assigned
