@RichFelker @johnregehr @ch3root @spun_off I think the C std should say that arithmetic on uint8_t* is equiv to arith on uintptr_t reps...
@BRIAN_____ @johnregehr @ch3root @spun_off This would force impls with advanced ptr models not to define [u]intptr_t at all.
@RichFelker @johnregehr @ch3root @spun_off I'm not sure what you mean then. Isn't that a prereq. for ptr -> uintptr_t math -> ptr?
@BRIAN_____ @johnregehr @ch3root @spun_off No. Without that you can still do all sorts of math treating the values as opaque.
@BRIAN_____ @johnregehr @ch3root @spun_off Hashing or encryption of ptrs, xor linked lists, 'base-relative' diffs for ptrs in shm, etc.
@RichFelker @johnregehr @ch3root @spun_off The standard says only that given a uintptr_t converted from pointer, you can recover pointer.
@BRIAN_____ @johnregehr @RichFelker @spun_off Right. That's why I like one conv (ptr->uint) more than two (ptr->uint & uint->ptr).
@BRIAN_____ @johnregehr @RichFelker @spun_off The difference is not that big given ptr->uint conv is impl-def anyway.
@BRIAN_____ @johnregehr @RichFelker @spun_off But mappings are "intended to be consistent with the addressing structure of the exec. env.".
