When we have a parameter (or call site return) with a dereferenceable
attribute, it can specify the size of an array pointed to by that parameter. If
we have a value for which we can accumulate a constant offset to such a
parameter, then we can use that offset in a direct comparison with the size
specified by the dereferenceable attribute.
This enables us to handle cases like this:
int foo(int a[static 3]) {
return a[2]; /* this is always dereferenceable */
}
