I'm not quite sure I follow your comment. If the program never terminates then it will loop forever and potentially freeze the machine depending from where it is invoked in the ker…

When there's no loop bound it cannot prove termination, see halting problem. Goal is to avoid getting an infinite loop and then freezing the kernel of course.

Loops must be bounded, that means, the verifier must be able to see that the loop will eventually terminate based on the condition. The verifier will simulate all iterations of the…
