             Bug #: 55518

           Summary: boehm-gc, libatomic, libffi and libgomp testsuite

                    can't find path to libasan for make check with

                    -fsanitizer

    Classification: Unclassified

           Product: gcc

           Version: 4.8.0

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Severity: normal

          Priority: P3

         Component: sanitizer

        AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org

        ReportedBy: howa...@nitro.med.uc.edu

                CC: do...@gcc.gnu.org, dvyu...@gcc.gnu.org,

                    ja...@gcc.gnu.org, k...@gcc.gnu.org





While using...



make -k check RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=unix'{-fsanitize=address}'"



is sufficient for the testsuite residing in the gcc subdirectory to find

the built libasan for linkage, the libffi testsuite fails in its entirety

with errors...



ld: library not found for -lasan^M

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status^M

compiler exited with status 1

output is:

ld: library not found for -lasan^M

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status^M



The same issue exists in the libgomp, boehm-gc and libatomic testsuites.

Interestingly, the libstdc++-v3 manages to find the path to libasan without any

additional options being passed on --target_board=unix than -fsanitize=address.
