(** * Relating two memory states. *)
(** ** Memory extensions *)
(**  A store [m2] extends a store [m1] if [m2] can be obtained from [m1] by relaxing the permissions of [m1] (for instance, allocating larger blocks) and replacing some of the [Vundef] values stored in [m1] by more defined values stored in [m2] at the same addresses. *)
Parameter extends: mem -> mem -> Prop.

Axiom load_extends:
forall chunk m1 m2 b ofs v1,
extends m1 m2 ->
load chunk m1 b ofs = Some v1 ->
exists v2, load chunk m2 b ofs = Some v2 /\ Val.lessdef v1 v2.
