array bound are fully determined at compile time.

#include <stdio.h>
 
#define R 3 
#define C 4
 
void func(int arr[R][C]) {
    for (int i=0; i <R;++i){
        for (int j =0; j<C;++j){
            arr[i][j] = i+j;
            printf("%d,", arr[i][j]);
        }
    }
    
}
 
int main()
{
    int arr[R][C] = {0};
    func(arr);
 
    return 0;
}

this is the first choice for dealing with 2darray. operating pointer to element of array and malloc with free should be considered.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
 
void func(int* array, int rows, int cols)
{
  int i, j;
 
  for (i=0; i<rows; i++)
  {
    for (j=0; j<cols; j++)
    {
      array[i*cols+j]=i+j;
      printf("%d,", array[i*cols+j]);
    }
  }
}
 
int main()
{
  int rows = 3, cols = 4;
  // or you can call scanf assigning value to rows and cols.
  int *x;
 
  /* obtain values for rows & cols */
 
  /* allocate the array */
  x = malloc(rows * cols * sizeof(*x));
 
  /* use the array */
  func(x, rows, cols);
 
  /* deallocate the array */
  free(x);
}

there are other methods that impl 2darray, such as only denote the second dim of array A[][N]. but those methods are less practical.

in addition, impl this methods by declaring pointer to pointer is a bit of complicated.

pointer to pointer code example as follow:

void func(int** array, int rows, int cols)
{
  int i, j;
 
  for (i=0; i<rows; i++)
  {
    for (j=0; j<cols; j++)
    {
      array[i][j] = i*j;
    }
  }
}
 
int main()
{
  int rows, cols, i;
  int **x;
 
  /* obtain values for rows & cols */
 
  /* allocate the array */
  x = malloc(rows * sizeof *x);
  for (i=0; i<rows; i++)
  {
    x[i] = malloc(cols * sizeof *x[i]);
  }
 
  /* use the array */
  func(x, rows, cols);
 
  /* deallocate the array */
  for (i=0; i<rows; i++)
  {
    free(x[i]);
  }
  free(x);
}
