provide more information for unnamed temps #241

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Currently asan may produce warning like this when a compiler-generated temp is 
involved: 

[2400, 2432) '' <== Memory access at offset 2432 overflows this variable

Instead of printing '' we need to print some more information, like 
<unnamed_temp:LINENUM>

and also the type name
LINENUM would be useful for named vars as well, then we can point to the exact 
line instead of function start

At the moment, we consider extending the frontend to emit extra metadata 
describing local variables and temps, which sanitizers can use to properly 
describe them in the error reports. Another option is to use debug info in 
sanitizer passes in the backend, and later strip debug info if user didn't 
specify -g* flag.
