It was written as "Memory Error" in most places and as "Memory error" in a few

This reverts commit r284335.
It appears to be causing test-suite compile-time and execution-time
performance measurements to take longer than expected on several bots.
This is surprising, because r284335 is a static-analyzer-only change.

Add additional checking to MallocChecker to avoid crashing when memory

of this in normal code (-Wincompatible-library-redeclaration warns on this),

The purpose of these changes is to simplify introduction of definition files
for the three hierarchies.
1. For every sub-class C of these classes, its kind in the relevant enumeration
is changed to "CKind" (or C##Kind in preprocessor-ish terms), eg:
MemRegionKind -> MemRegionValKind
RegionValueKind -> SymbolRegionValueKind
CastSymbolKind -> SymbolCastKind
SymIntKind -> SymIntExprKind
2. MemSpaceRegion used to be inconsistently used as both an abstract base and
a particular region. This region class is now an abstract base and no longer
occupies GenericMemSpaceRegionKind. Instead, a new class, CodeSpaceRegion,
is introduced for handling the unique use case for MemSpaceRegion as
"the generic memory space" (when it represents a memory space that holds all
executable code).
3. BEG_ prefixes in memory region kind ranges are renamed to BEGIN_ for
consisitency with symbol kind ranges.
4. FunctionTextRegion and BlockTextRegion are renamed to FunctionCodeRegion and
BlockCodeRegion, respectively. The term 'code' is less jargony than 'text' and
we already refer to BlockTextRegion as a 'code region' in BlockDataRegion.

The analyzer assumes that system functions will not free memory or modify the
arguments in other ways, so we assume that arguments do not escape when
those are called. However, this may lead to false positive leak errors. For
example, in code like this where the pointers added to the rb_tree are freed
later on:
struct alarm_event *e = calloc(1, sizeof(*e));
<snip>
rb_tree_insert_node(&alarm_tree, e);
Add a heuristic to assume that calls to system functions taking void*
arguments allow for pointer escape.
llvm-svn: 251449
Currently realloc(ptr, 0) is treated as free() which seems to be not correct. C
standard (N1570) establishes equivalent behavior for malloc(0) and realloc(ptr,
0): "7.22.3 Memory management functions calloc, malloc, realloc: If the size of
the space requested is zero, the behavior is implementation-defined: either a
null pointer is returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero
value, except that the returned pointer shall not be used to access an object."
The patch equalizes the processing of malloc(0) and realloc(ptr,0). The patch
also enables unix.Malloc checker to detect references to zero-allocated memory
returned by realloc(ptr,0) ("Use of zero-allocated memory" warning).

The analyzer trims unnecessary nodes from the exploded graph before reporting
path diagnostics. However, in some cases it can trim all nodes (including the
error node), leading to an assertion failure (see
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24184).
This commit addresses the issue by adding two new APIs to CheckerContext to
explicitly create error nodes. Unless the client provides a custom tag, these
APIs tag the node with the checker's tag -- preventing it from being trimmed.
The generateErrorNode() method creates a sink error node, while
generateNonFatalErrorNode() creates an error node for a path that should
continue being explored.
The intent is that one of these two methods should be used whenever a checker
creates an error node.
This commit updates the checkers to use these APIs. These APIs
(unlike addTransition() and generateSink()) do not take an explicit Pred node.
This is because there are not any error nodes in the checkers that were created
with an explicit different than the default (the CheckerContext's Pred node).
It also changes generateSink() to require state and pred nodes (previously
these were optional) to reduce confusion.
Additionally, there were several cases where checkers did check whether a
generated node could be null; we now explicitly check for null in these places.
This commit also includes a test case written by Ying Yi as part of
http://reviews.llvm.org/D12163 (that patch originally addressed this issue but
was reverted because it introduced false positive regressions).

The state obtained from CheckerContext::getState() may be outdated by the time the alloc/dealloc handling function is called (e.g. the state was modified but the transition was not performed).

Instead of handling edge cases (mostly involving blocks), where we have difficulty finding
an allocation statement, allow the allocation site to be in a parent node.
Previously we assumed that the allocation site can always be found in the same frame
as allocation, but there are scenarios in which an element is leaked in a child
frame but is allocated in the parent.

The MallocChecker does currently not track the memory allocated by
if_nameindex. That memory is dynamically allocated and should be freed
by calling if_freenameindex. The attached patch teaches the checker
about these functions.
Memory allocated by if_nameindex is treated as a separate allocation
"family". That way the checker can verify it is freed by the correct
function.

Add M_ZERO awareness to malloc() static analysis in Clang for FreeBSD,
NetBSD, and OpenBSD in a similar fashion to O_CREAT for open(2).
These systems have a three-argument malloc() in the kernel where the
third argument contains flags; the M_ZERO flag will zero-initialize the
allocated buffer.
This should reduce the number of false positives when running static
analysis on BSD kernels.
Additionally, add kmalloc() (Linux kernel malloc()) and treat __GFP_ZERO
like M_ZERO on Linux.
Future work involves a better method of checking for named flags without
hardcoding values.

This implements FIXME from Checker.cpp (FIXME: We want to return the package + name of the checker here.) and replaces hardcoded checker names with the new ones obtained via getCheckName().getName().
llvm-svn: 201525
Summary:
In clang-tidy we'd like to know the name of the checker producing each
diagnostic message. PathDiagnostic has BugType and Category fields, which are
both arbitrary human-readable strings, but we need to know the exact name of the
checker in the form that can be used in the CheckersControlList option to
enable/disable the specific checker.
This patch adds the CheckName field to the CheckerBase class, and sets it in
the CheckerManager::registerChecker() method, which gets them from the
CheckerRegistry.
Checkers that implement multiple checks have to store the names of each check
in the respective registerXXXChecker method.

Per discussion with Anna a /long/ time ago, it was way too easy to misuse
BlockCall: because it inherited from AnyFunctionCall (through SimpleCall),
getDecl() was constrained to return a FunctionDecl, and you had to call
getBlockDecl() instead. This goes against the whole point of CallEvent
(to abstract over different ways to invoke bodies of code).
Now, BlockCall just inherits directly from CallEvent. There's a bit of
duplication in getting things out of the origin expression (which is still
known to be a CallExpr), but nothing significant.

This has the dual effect of (1) enabling more dead-stripping in release builds

Note that the attribute is applied to definitions rather than declarations in
headers going forward because it's now conditional on NDEBUG:

Now that the CFG includes nodes for the destructors in a delete-expression,
process them in the analyzer using the same common destructor interface
currently used for local, member, and base destructors. Also, check for when
the value is known to be null, in which case no destructor is actually run.
This does not yet handle destructors for deleted /arrays/, which may need
more CFG work. It also causes a slight regression in the location of
double delete warnings; the double delete is detected at the destructor
call, which is implicit, and so is reported on the first access within the
destructor instead of at the 'delete' statement. This will be fixed soon.

When a region is realloc()ed, MallocChecker records whether it was known
to be allocated or not. If it is, and the reallocation fails, the original
region has to be freed. Previously, when an allocated region escaped,
MallocChecker completely stopped tracking it, so a failed reallocation
still (correctly) wouldn't require freeing the original region. Recently,
however, MallocChecker started tracking escaped symbols, so that if it were
freed we could check that the deallocator matched the allocator. This
broke the reallocation model for whether or not a symbol was allocated.
Now, MallocChecker will actually check if a symbol is owned, and only
require freeing after a failed reallocation if it was owned before.

Jordan has pointed out that it is valuable to warn in cases when the arguments to init escape.
For example, NSData initWithBytes id not going to free the memory.
llvm-svn: 183062
Consider this example:
char *p = malloc(sizeof(char));
systemFunction(&p);
free(p);
In this case, when we call systemFunction, we know (because it's a system
function) that it won't free 'p'. However, we /don't/ know whether or not
it will /change/ 'p', so the analyzer is forced to invalidate 'p', wiping
out any bindings it contains. But now the malloc'd region looks like a
leak, since there are no more bindings pointing to it, and we'll get a
spurious leak warning.
The fix for this is to notice when something is becoming inaccessible due
to invalidation (i.e. an imperfect model, as opposed to being explicitly
overwritten) and stop tracking it at that point. Currently, the best way
to determine this for a call is the "indirect escape" pointer-escape kind.
In practice, all the patch does is take the "system functions don't free
memory" special case and limit it to direct parameters, i.e. just the
arguments to a call and not other regions accessible to them. This is a
conservative change that should only cause us to escape regions more
eagerly, which means fewer leak warnings.
This isn't perfect for several reasons, the main one being that this
example is treated the same as the one above:
char **p = malloc(sizeof(char *));
systemFunction(p + 1);
// leak
Currently, "addresses accessible by offsets of the starting region" and
"addresses accessible through bindings of the starting region" are both
considered "indirect" regions, hence this uniform treatment.
Another issue is our longstanding problem of not distinguishing const and
non-const bindings; if in the first example systemFunction's parameter were
a char * const *, we should know that the function will not overwrite 'p',
and thus we can safely report the leak.

This splits the leak-checking part of alpha.cplusplus.NewDelete into a

The statement passed to isTrackedFamily() might be a user defined function calling malloc; in this case we got AF_NONE family for this function.

This fixes an issue pointed to by Jordan: if unix.Malloc and unix.MismatchedDeallocator are both on, then we end up still tracking leaks of memory allocated by new.
Moved the guards right before emitting the bug reports to unify and simplify the logic of handling of multiple checkers. Now all the checkers perform their checks regardless of if they were enabled, or not, and it is decided just before the emitting of the report, if it should be emitted. (idea from Anna).
Additional changes:
improved test coverage for checker correlations;
refactoring: BadDealloc -> MismatchedDealloc
llvm-svn: 178814
Add a new callback that notifies checkers when a const pointer escapes. Currently, this only works
for const pointers passed as a top level parameter into a function. We need to differentiate the const
pointers escape from regular escape since the content pointed by const pointer will not change;
if it’s a file handle, a file cannot be closed; but delete is allowed on const pointers.
This should suppress several false positives reported by the NewDelete checker on llvm codebase.

+ Improved display names for allocators and deallocators

Previously, MallocChecker's pointer escape check and its post-call state
update for Objective-C method calls had a fair amount duplicated logic
and not-entirely-consistent checks. This commit restructures all this to
be more consistent and possibly allow us to be more aggressive in warning
about double-frees.
New policy (applies to system header methods only):
(1) If this is a method we know about, model it as taking/holding ownership
of the passed-in buffer.
(1a) ...unless there's a "freeWhenDone:" parameter with a zero (NO) value.
(2) If there's a "freeWhenDone:" parameter (but it's not a method we know
about), treat the buffer as escaping if the value is non-zero (YES) and
non-escaping if it's zero (NO).
(3) If the first selector piece ends with "NoCopy" (but it's not a method we
know about and there's no "freeWhenDone:" parameter), treat the buffer
as escaping.
The reason that (2) and (3) don't explicitly model the ownership transfer is
because we can't be sure that they will actually free the memory using free(),
and we wouldn't want to emit a spurious "mismatched allocator" warning
(coming in Anton's upcoming patch). In the future, we may have an idea of a
"generic deallocation", i.e. we assume that the deallocator is correct but
still continue tracking the region so that we can warn about double-frees.
