//
// This file defines the generic AliasAnalysis interface, which is used as the
// common interface used by all clients of alias analysis information, and
// implemented by all alias analysis implementations.  Mod/Ref information is
// also captured by this interface.
//
// Implementations of this interface must implement the various virtual methods,
// which automatically provides functionality for the entire suite of client
// APIs.
//
// This API represents memory as a (Pointer, Size) pair.  The Pointer component
// specifies the base memory address of the region, the Size specifies how large
// of an area is being queried.  If Size is 0, two pointers only alias if they
// are exactly equal.  If size is greater than zero, but small, the two pointers
// alias if the areas pointed to overlap.  If the size is very large (ie, ~0U),
// then the two pointers alias if they may be pointing to components of the same
// memory object.  Pointers that point to two completely different objects in
// memory never alias, regardless of the value of the Size component.
