regcomp.c uses the "start + count < end" idiom to check that there are "count" bytes available in an array of char "start" and "end" both point to. This is fine, unless "start + count" goes beyond the last element of the array. In this case, pedantic interpretation of the C standard makes the comparison of such a pointer against "end" undefined, and optimizers from hell will happily remove as much code as possible because of this. An example of this occurs in regcomp.c's bothcases(), which defines bracket[3], sets "next" to "bracket" and "end" to "bracket + 2". Then it invokes p_bracket(), which starts with "if (p->next + 5 < p->end)"... Because bothcases() and p_bracket() are static functions in regcomp.c, there is a real risk of miscompilation if aggressive inlining happens. The following diff rewrites the "start + count < end" constructs into "end - start > count". Assuming "end" and "start" are always pointing in the array (such as "bracket[3]" above), "end - start" is well-defined and can be compared without trouble. As a bonus, MORE2() implies MORE() therefore SEETWO() can be simplified a bit. PR: 252403

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
