Bug #: 55354
Summary: [asan] by default, the asan run-time should be linked
statically, not dynamically
Classification: Unclassified
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: other
AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: konstantin.s.serebry...@gmail.com
CC: dseke...@redhat.com, dvyu...@google.com,
ja...@redhat.com
Today, -faddress-sanitizer (to be changed to -fsanitize=address) causes the
asan run-time library to be linked dynamically.
It needs to be changed to static linkage because
- it matches clang behavior
- causes less confusion for users (where is my libasan.so???)
- better for tsan performance (we'll need to link tsan statically too)
Note that on MacOS we probably want to keep using dynamic linkage
since the future library-interposition-based run-time will require it.
