.. option:: -fno-sanitize-blacklist
Don't use blacklist file for sanitizers
.. option:: -fparse-all-comments
.. option:: -frecord-command-line, -frecord-gcc-switches, -fno-record-command-line, -fno-record-gcc-switches
Generate a section named ".GCC.command.line" containing the clang driver
command-line. After linking, the section may contain multiple command lines,
which will be individually terminated by null bytes. Separate arguments within
a command line are combined with spaces; spaces and backslashes within an
argument are escaped with backslashes. This format differs from the format of
the equivalent section produced by GCC with the -frecord-gcc-switches flag.
This option is currently only supported on ELF targets.
.. option:: -fsanitize-address-field-padding=<arg>

Enable "poisoning" array cookies when allocating arrays with a custom operator new\[\] in Address Sanitizer, preventing accesses to the cookies from user code. An array cookie is a small implementation-defined header added to certain array allocations to record metadata such as the length of the array. Accesses to array cookies from user code are technically allowed by the standard but are more likely to be the result of an out-of-bounds array access.
An operator new\[\] is "custom" if it is not one of the allocation functions provided by the C++ standard library. Array cookies from non-custom allocation functions are always poisoned.
