--- Comment #9 from Marc Glisse <glisse at gcc dot gnu.org> --- I don't see what "signed" has to do with it. void f (unsigned char i) { char d [1260]; const char *p = &d[130]; p += i; if (p < d + 2 || d + 757 < p) __builtin_abort (); } We don't optimize this either. We would need either to record a range of [d+130, d+385] for p_3, or to match the pattern &d[CST1] + X cmp &d[CST2] and check if the range of X lets us conclude (actually, maybe we could generally turn this into X + CST1 cmp CST2, which would then be handled by existing code).
