Not sure if I misunderstand your question, but what assures that in mem "first"
is
base and then "myData" is the order you declare them in the struct. The order in
C structs matters, and implies the order in memory.
Note, however, that padding might be used between "base" and "myData". But the
order will be kept. But this just C and not related to libev, if I understand
the question correctly :)
Thanks,
