<h2 id="intro">Introduction</h2>
AddressSanitizer is a fast memory error detector.
It consists of a compiler instrumentation module and a run-time library.
The tool can detect the following types of bugs:
<ul> <li> Out-of-bounds accesses to heap, stack and globals
<li> Use-after-free
<li> Use-after-return (to some extent)
<li> Double-free, invalid free
</ul>
Typical slowdown introduced by AddressSanitizer is <b>2x</b>.
<h2 id="howtobuild">How to build</h2>
Follow the <a href="../get_started.html">clang build instructions</a>.
<h2 id="intro">Usage</h2>
Simply compile and link your program with <tt>-faddress-sanitizer</tt> flag. <BR>
To get a reasonable performance add <tt>-O1</tt> or higher. <BR>
<pre>
% cat example_UseAfterFree.cc
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
int *array = new int[100];
delete [] array;
return array[argc]; // BOOM
}
</pre>
<pre>
% clang -O1 -g -faddress-sanitizer example_UseAfterFree.cc
</pre>
If a bug is detected, the program will print an error message to stderr and exit with a
non-zero exit code.
Currently, AddressSanitizer does not symbolize its output, so you may need to use a
separate script to symbolize the result offline (this will be fixed in future).
<pre>

<h3 id="has_feature">__has_feature(address_sanitizer)</h3>
In some cases one may need to execute different code depending on whether
AddressSanitizer is enabled.
<a href="LanguageExtensions.html#__has_feature_extension">__has_feature</a>
can be used for this purpose.
<pre>
#if defined(__has_feature) && __has_feature(address_sanitizer)
code that runs only under AddressSanitizer
#else
code that does not run under AddressSanitizer
#endif
</pre>
<h2 id="platforms">Supported Platforms</h2>
AddressSanitizer is supported on
<ul><li>Linux x86_64 (tested on Ubuntu 10.04).
<li>MacOS 10.6 i386/x86_64.
</ul>
Support for Linux i386/ARM and MacOS 10.7 is in progress.
<h2 id="limitations">Limitations</h2>
<ul>
<li> AddressSanitizer uses more real memory than a native run.
How much -- depends on the allocations sizes. The smaller the
allocations you make the bigger the overhead.
<li> On 64-bit platforms AddressSanitizer maps (but not reserves)
16+ Terabytes of virtual address space.
This means that tools like <tt>ulimit</tt> may not work as usually expected.
<li> Static linking is not supported.
</ul>
<h2 id="status">Current Status</h2>
AddressSanitizer is fully functional on supported platforms in LLVM head.
However, the test suite is not fully integrated yet and we lack the testing
process (buildbots).
