Can you point to the section in the language ref for this?  Pointer arithmetic?


Sorry, I cannot provide the whole file; it's part of a commercial
virtualization product.

It's interfacing with (possibly proprietary virtual) hardware via a
specification (which I have never seen).  The subtraction of 0x2000 from the
pointer is, apparently, to access specific hardware.

If the operations are undefined, how should one interface directly with
hardware without having code broken by UB?
