This change instruments Metaspace for ASan. Metaspace allocates memory using `mmap`/`munmap` which ASan is not aware of. Fortunately ASan supports applications [manually poisoning/unpoisoning memory](https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerManualPoisoning). ASan is able to detect poisoned memory, similar to `use-after-free`, and will raise an error similarly called `use-after-poison`. This provides and extra layer of defense and confidence.
The header `sanitizers/address.h` defines macros for poisoning/unpoisoning memory regions. These macros can be used regardless of build mode. When ASan is not available, they are implemented using a NOOP approach which still compiles the arguments but does so such that they will be stripped out by the compiler due to being unreachable. This helps with maintenance. IMO the benefit of doing this greatly outweighs the cost. ------------- Commit messages: - Instrument Metaspace for ASan Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11702/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=11702&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8298908 Stats: 143 lines in 7 files changed: 122 ins; 1 del; 20 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11702.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk pull/11702/head:pull/11702 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11702
