to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

As discussed with Dmitry (https://goo.gl/SA4izd), I would like to introduce a function to be called from a third-party library to flush the shadow memory.
In particular, we ran some experiments with our tool Archer (an OpenMP data race detector based on Tsan, https://github.com/PRUNER/archer) and flushing the memory at the end of an outer parallel region, slightly increase the runtime overhead, but reduce the memory overhead of about 30%. This feature would come very handy in case of very large OpenMP applications that may cause an "out of memory" exception when checked with Tsan.

If a memory access is unaligned, emit __tsan_unaligned_read/write
callbacks instead of __tsan_read/write.
Required to change semantics of __tsan_unaligned_read/write to not do the user memory.
But since they were unused (other than through __sanitizer_unaligned_load/store) this is fine.

Status:
The tool is known to work on large real-life applications, but still has quite a few rough edges.
Nothing is guaranteed yet.
The tool works on x86_64 Linux.
Support for 64-bit MacOS 10.7+ is planned for late 2012.
Support for 32-bit OSes is doable, but problematic and not yet planed.
Further commits coming:
- tests
- makefiles
- documentation
- clang driver patch
The code was previously developed at http://code.google.com/p/data-race-test/source/browse/trunk/v2/
by Dmitry Vyukov and Kostya Serebryany with contributions from
Timur Iskhodzhanov, Alexander Potapenko, Alexey Samsonov and Evgeniy Stepanov.
