Hi, David. I found a problem that GSA evaluates a > bto be TRUE but evaluates b < a to be UNKNOWN. I think that in the True branch of if(a>b) there should exist a constraint, and then GSA can evaluates b < a to be FALSE. Compiling the following test case with gcc (trunk) with options "-fanalyzer ". https://godbolt.org/z/7EWreG66W Input

#include "stdint.h"
#include "stdio.h"
#include <stdbool.h>
extern void __analyzer_describe ();
extern void __analyzer_eval ();
extern void __analyzer_dump ();
extern void __analyzer_dump_state (const char *name, ...);
extern void __analyzer_dump_region_model ();

void foo (size_t size)
{
  size_t a = size + 2;
  size_t b = size + 1;
  __analyzer_dump ();
  if(a > b){
    __analyzer_dump ();
    __analyzer_eval (a > b);
    __analyzer_eval (b < a);
    __analyzer_eval (b > a);
  }

}
