'counted_by (COUNT)'
     The 'counted_by' attribute may be attached to the C99 flexible
     array member of a structure.  It indicates that the number of the
     elements of the array is given by the field "COUNT" in the
     same structure as the flexible array member.
     GCC may use this information to improve detection of object size 
information
     for such structures and provide better results in compile-time diagnostics
     and runtime features like the array bound sanitizer and
     the '__builtin_dynamic_object_size'.

     For instance, the following code:

          struct P {
            size_t count;
            char other;
            char array[] __attribute__ ((counted_by (count)));
          } *p;

     specifies that the 'array' is a flexible array member whose number
     of elements is given by the field 'count' in the same structure.

     The field that represents the number of the elements should have an
     integer type.  Otherwise, the compiler reports an error and
     ignores the attribute.

     When the field that represents the number of the elements is assigned a
     negative integer value, the compiler treats the value as zero.

     An explicit 'counted_by' annotation defines a relationship between
     two objects, 'p->array' and 'p->count', and there are the following
     requirementthat on the relationship between this pair:

        * 'p->count' must be initialized before the first reference to
          'p->array';

        * 'p->array' has _at least_ 'p->count' number of elements
          available all the time.  This relationship must hold even
          after any of these related objects are updated during the
          program.

     It's the user's responsibility to make sure the above requirements
     to be kept all the time.  Otherwise the compiler reports
     warnings, at the same time, the results of the array bound
     sanitizer and the '__builtin_dynamic_object_size' is undefined.

     One important feature of the attribute is, a reference to the
     flexible array member field uses the latest value assigned to
     the field that represents the number of the elements before that
     reference.  For example,

            p->count = val1;
            p->array[20] = 0;  // ref1 to p->array
            p->count = val2;
            p->array[30] = 0;  // ref2 to p->array

     in the above, 'ref1' uses 'val1' as the number of the elements
     in 'p->array', and 'ref2' uses 'val2' as the number of elements
     in 'p->array'.

 The @code{aligned} attribute can also be used for functions
 (@pxref{Common Function Attributes}.)
 
+@cindex @code{counted_by} variable attribute
+@item counted_by (@var{count})
+The @code{counted_by} attribute may be attached to the C99 flexible array
+member of a structure.  It indicates that the number of the elements of the
+array is given by the field "@var{count}" in the same structure as the
+flexible array member.
+GCC may use this information to improve detection of object size information
+for such structures and provide better results in compile-time diagnostics
+and runtime features like the array bound sanitizer and
+the @code{__builtin_dynamic_object_size}.
+
+For instance, the following code:
+
+@smallexample
+struct P @{
+  size_t count;
+  char other;
+  char array[] __attribute__ ((counted_by (count)));
+@} *p;
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+specifies that the @code{array} is a flexible array member whose number of
+elements is given by the field @code{count} in the same structure.
+
+The field that represents the number of the elements should have an
+integer type.  Otherwise, the compiler reports an error and ignores
+the attribute.
+
+When the field that represents the number of the elements is assigned a
+negative integer value, the compiler treats the value as zero.
+
+An explicit @code{counted_by} annotation defines a relationship between
+two objects, @code{p->array} and @code{p->count}, and there are the
+following requirementthat on the relationship between this pair:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+@code{p->count} must be initialized before the first reference to
+@code{p->array};
+
+@item
+@code{p->array} has @emph{at least} @code{p->count} number of elements
+available all the time.  This relationship must hold even after any of
+these related objects are updated during the program.
+@end itemize
+
+It's the user's responsibility to make sure the above requirements to
+be kept all the time.  Otherwise the compiler reports warnings,
+at the same time, the results of the array bound sanitizer and the
+@code{__builtin_dynamic_object_size} is undefined.
+
+One important feature of the attribute is, a reference to the flexible
+array member field uses the latest value assigned to the field that
+represents the number of the elements before that reference.  For example,
+
+@smallexample
+  p->count = val1;
+  p->array[20] = 0;  // ref1 to p->array
+  p->count = val2;
+  p->array[30] = 0;  // ref2 to p->array
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+in the above, @code{ref1} uses @code{val1} as the number of the elements in
+@code{p->array}, and @code{ref2} uses @code{val2} as the number of elements
+in @code{p->array}.
