How can I get the size of an array from a pointer in C?

if (NULL == (p = calloc(sizeof(struct mystruct) * n,1))) {
 /* handle error */
}

int length = askMallocLibraryHowMuchMemoryWasAlloced(p) / sizeof(mystruct)

void *p = calloc(sizeof(struct mystruct) * n + sizeof(unsigned long int),1));
*((unsigned long int*)p) = n;

void *arr = p+sizeof(unsigned long int);

typedef struct {
  unsined int n;
  void *arr;
} arrInfo;

typedef void* arrayInfo;
(arrayInfo)newArrayInfo(unsignd int n, unsigned int itemSize);
(void)deleteArrayInfo(arrayInfo);
(unsigned int)arrayLength(arrayInfo);
(void*)arrayPtr(arrayInfo);
...

void *blockOfMem = malloc(sizeof(mystruct)*n + sizeof(int));

((int *)blockofMem)[0] = n;
mystruct *structs = (mystruct *)(((int *)blockOfMem) + 1);

typedef struct MyStructTag
{ /* etc. */ } MyStruct ;

void doSomething(MyStruct * p)
{
   /* well... extract the memory allocated? */
   size_t i = get_size(p) ;
   initializeMyStructArray(p, i) ;
}

void doSomethingElse()
{
   MyStruct * s = malloc(sizeof(MyStruct) * 10) ; /* Allocate 10 items */
   doSomething(s) ;
}

void doSomethingElse()
{
   MyStruct * s = malloc(sizeof(MyStruct) * 10) ; /* Allocate 10 items */
   MyStruct * s2 = s + 5 ; /* s2 points to the 5th item */
   doSomething(s2) ; /* Oops */
}

int size;
struct mystruct *cur;

for (cur = myarray; cur->name != NULL; cur++)
    ;

size = cur - myarray;

void* my_malloc(size_t s);     /* Calls malloc(s), and if successful stores
                                  (p,s) in a list of handled blocks */
void my_free(void* p);         /* Removes list entry and calls free(p) */
size_t my_block_size(void* p); /* Looks up p, and returns the stored size */
...
