Insert code to protect stack vars. The prologue sequence should be emitted directly, epilogue sequence returned. BASE is the register holding the stack base, against which OFFSETS array offsets are relative to, OFFSETS array contains pairs of offsets in reverse order, always the end offset of some gap that needs protection followed by starting offset, and DECLS is an array of representative decls for each var partition. LENGTH is the length of the OFFSETS array, DECLS array is LENGTH / 2 - 1 elements long (OFFSETS include gap before the first variable as well as gaps after each stack variable).
First of all, prepare the description string.
Emit the prologue sequence.
Construct epilogue sequence.

AddressSanitizer finds out-of-bounds and use-after-free bugs
with <2x slowdown on average.
The tool consists of two parts:
instrumentation module (this file) and a run-time library.
The instrumentation module adds a run-time check before every memory insn.
For a 8- or 16- byte load accessing address X:
ShadowAddr = (X >> 3) + Offset
ShadowValue = *(char*)ShadowAddr; // *(short*) for 16-byte access.
if (ShadowValue)
__asan_report_load8(X);
For a load of N bytes (N=1, 2 or 4) from address X:
ShadowAddr = (X >> 3) + Offset
ShadowValue = *(char*)ShadowAddr;
if (ShadowValue)
if ((X & 7) + N - 1 > ShadowValue)
__asan_report_loadN(X);
Stores are instrumented similarly, but using __asan_report_storeN functions.
A call too __asan_init() is inserted to the list of module CTORs.
The run-time library redefines malloc (so that redzone are inserted around
the allocated memory) and free (so that reuse of free-ed memory is delayed),
provides __asan_report* and __asan_init functions.

The current implementation supports detection of out-of-bounds and
use-after-free in the heap, on the stack and for global variables.
[Protection of stack variables]
To understand how detection of out-of-bounds and use-after-free works
for stack variables, lets look at this example on x86_64 where the
stack grows downward:
int
foo ()
{
char a[23] = {0};
int b[2] = {0};
a[5] = 1;
b[1] = 2;
return a[5] + b[1];
}
For this function, the stack protected by asan will be organized as
follows, from the top of the stack to the bottom:
Slot 1/ [red zone of 32 bytes called 'RIGHT RedZone']
Slot 2/ [8 bytes of red zone, that adds up to the space of 'a' to make
the next slot be 32 bytes aligned; this one is called Partial
Redzone; this 32 bytes alignment is an asan constraint]
Slot 3/ [24 bytes for variable 'a']
Slot 4/ [red zone of 32 bytes called 'Middle RedZone']
Slot 5/ [24 bytes of Partial Red Zone (similar to slot 2]
Slot 6/ [8 bytes for variable 'b']
Slot 7/ [32 bytes of Red Zone at the bottom of the stack, called
'LEFT RedZone']
The 32 bytes of LEFT red zone at the bottom of the stack can be
decomposed as such:
1/ The first 8 bytes contain a magical asan number that is always
0x41B58AB3.
2/ The following 8 bytes contains a pointer to a string (to be
parsed at runtime by the runtime asan library), which format is
the following:
"<function-name> <space> <num-of-variables-on-the-stack>
(<32-bytes-aligned-offset-in-bytes-of-variable> <space>
<length-of-var-in-bytes> ){n} "
where '(...){n}' means the content inside the parenthesis occurs 'n'
times, with 'n' being the number of variables on the stack.
3/ The following 16 bytes of the red zone have no particular
format.
The shadow memory for that stack layout is going to look like this:
- content of shadow memory 8 bytes for slot 7: 0xF1F1F1F1.
The F1 byte pattern is a magic number called
ASAN_STACK_MAGIC_LEFT and is a way for the runtime to know that
the memory for that shadow byte is part of a the LEFT red zone
intended to seat at the bottom of the variables on the stack.
- content of shadow memory 8 bytes for slots 6 and 5:
0xF4F4F400. The F4 byte pattern is a magic number
called ASAN_STACK_MAGIC_PARTIAL. It flags the fact that the
memory region for this shadow byte is a PARTIAL red zone
intended to pad a variable A, so that the slot following
{A,padding} is 32 bytes aligned.
Note that the fact that the least significant byte of this
shadow memory content is 00 means that 8 bytes of its
corresponding memory (which corresponds to the memory of
variable 'b') is addressable.
- content of shadow memory 8 bytes for slot 4: 0xF2F2F2F2.
The F2 byte pattern is a magic number called
ASAN_STACK_MAGIC_MIDDLE. It flags the fact that the memory
region for this shadow byte is a MIDDLE red zone intended to
seat between two 32 aligned slots of {variable,padding}.
- content of shadow memory 8 bytes for slot 3 and 2:
0xF4000000. This represents is the concatenation of
variable 'a' and the partial red zone following it, like what we
had for variable 'b'. The least significant 3 bytes being 00
means that the 3 bytes of variable 'a' are addressable.
- content of shadow memory 8 bytes for slot 1: 0xF3F3F3F3.
The F3 byte pattern is a magic number called
ASAN_STACK_MAGIC_RIGHT. It flags the fact that the memory
region for this shadow byte is a RIGHT red zone intended to seat
at the top of the variables of the stack.
Note that the real variable layout is done in expand_used_vars in
cfgexpand.c. As far as Address Sanitizer is concerned, it lays out
stack variables as well as the different red zones, emits some
prologue code to populate the shadow memory as to poison (mark as
non-accessible) the regions of the red zones and mark the regions of
stack variables as accessible, and emit some epilogue code to
un-poison (mark as accessible) the regions of red zones right before
the function exits.
[Protection of global variables]
The basic idea is to insert a red zone between two global variables
and install a constructor function that calls the asan runtime to do
the populating of the relevant shadow memory regions at load time.
So the global variables are laid out as to insert a red zone between
them. The size of the red zones is so that each variable starts on a
32 bytes boundary.
Then a constructor function is installed so that, for each global
variable, it calls the runtime asan library function
__asan_register_globals_with an instance of this type:
struct __asan_global
{
// Address of the beginning of the global variable.
const void *__beg;
// Initial size of the global variable.
uptr __size;
// Size of the global variable + size of the red zone. This
// size is 32 bytes aligned.
uptr __size_with_redzone;
// Name of the global variable.
const void *__name;
// This is always set to NULL for now.
uptr __has_dynamic_init;
}
A destructor function that calls the runtime asan library function
_asan_unregister_globals is also installed.
