namespace android {

// Modulo class is used for intentionally wrapping variables such as
// counters and timers.
//
// It may also be used for variables whose computation depends on the
// associativity of addition or subtraction.
//
// Features:
// 1) Modulo checks type sizes before performing operations to ensure
//    that the wrap points match. This is critical for safe modular arithmetic.
// 2) Modulo returns Modulo types from arithmetic operations, thereby
//    avoiding unintentional use in a non-modular computation.  A Modulo
//    type is converted to its base non-Modulo type through the value() function.
// 3) Modulo separates out overflowable types from non-overflowable types.
//    A signed overflow is technically undefined in C and C++.
//    Modulo types do not participate in sanitization.
// 4) Modulo comparisons are based on signed differences to account for wrap;
//    this is not the same as the direct comparison of values.
// 5) Safe use of binary arithmetic operations relies on conversions of
//    signed operands to unsigned operands (which are modular arithmetic safe).
//    Conversions which are implementation-defined are assumed to use 2's complement
//    representation. (See A, B, C, D from the ISO/IEC FDIS 14882
//    Information technology — Programming languages — C++).
//
// A: ISO/IEC 14882:2011(E) p84 section 4.7 Integral conversions
// (2) If the destination type is unsigned, the resulting value is the least unsigned
// integer congruent to the source integer (modulo 2^n where n is the number of bits
// used to represent the unsigned type). [ Note: In a two’s complement representation,
// this conversion is conceptual and there is no change in the bit pattern (if there
// is no truncation). — end note ]
// (3) If the destination type is signed, the value is unchanged if it can be represented
// in the destination type (and bit-field width); otherwise, the value is
// implementation-defined.
//
// B: ISO/IEC 14882:2011(E) p88 section 5 Expressions
// (9) Many binary operators that expect operands of arithmetic or enumeration type
// cause conversions and yield result types in a similar way. The purpose is to
// yield a common type, which is also the type of the result. This pattern is called
// the usual arithmetic conversions, which are defined as follows:
// [...]
// Otherwise, if both operands have signed integer types or both have unsigned
// integer types, the operand with the type of lesser integer conversion rank shall be
// converted to the type of the operand with greater rank.
// — Otherwise, if the operand that has unsigned integer type has rank greater than
// or equal to the rank of the type of the other operand, the operand with signed
// integer type shall be converted to the type of the operand with unsigned integer type.
//
// C: ISO/IEC 14882:2011(E) p86 section 4.13 Integer conversion rank
// [...] The rank of long long int shall be greater than the rank of long int,
// which shall be greater than the rank of int, which shall be greater than the
// rank of short int, which shall be greater than the rank of signed char.
// — The rank of any unsigned integer type shall equal the rank of the corresponding
// signed integer type.
//
// D: ISO/IEC 14882:2011(E) p75 section 3.9.1 Fundamental types
// [...] Unsigned integers, declared unsigned, shall obey the laws of arithmetic modulo
// 2^n where n is the number of bits in the value representation of that particular
// size of integer.
//
// Note:
// Other libraries do exist for safe integer operations which can detect the
// possibility of overflow (SafeInt from MS and safe-iop in android).
// Signed safe computation is also possible from the art header safe_math.h.
