DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify keyboard geometries. Note that these functions merely allocate space for the new element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the values explicitly in your code. These allocation functions increase 
sz_* 
but never touch 
num_* 
(unless there is an allocation failure, in which case they reset both 
sz_* 
and 
num_* 
to zero). These functions return Success if they succeed, BadAlloc if they are not able to allocate space, or BadValue if a parameter is not as expected.
 
XkbAllocGeomOverlayKeys 
allocates 
num_needed 
keys and adds them to the 
row. 
No initialization of the keys is done.
 
 DIAGNOSTICS
- BadAlloc
 - 
Unable to allocate storage
 - BadValue
 - 
An argument is out of range
