What I think you mean is that the arguments given in the prototype
declaration in the C standard are qualified with the 'restrict'
keyword.

Note that this form of declaration has no effect on the semantics of
the function.  The function declaration, and its semantics, are just
the same as if the uses of 'restrict' were removed.
