[analyzer] Avoid unnecessary super region invalidation in `CStringChecker` (#146212) Bounded string functions takes smallest of two values as it's copy size (`amountCopied` variable in `evalStrcpyCommon`), and it's used to decided whether this operation will cause out-of-bound access and invalidate it's super region if it does. for `strlcat`: `amountCopied = min (size - dstLen - 1 , srcLen)` for others: `amountCopied = min (srcLen, size)` Currently when one of two values is unknown or `SValBuilder` can't decide which one is smaller, `amountCopied` will remain `UnknownVal`, which will invalidate copy destination's super region unconditionally. This patch add check to see if one of these two values is definitely in-bound, if so `amountCopied` has to be in-bound too, because it‘s less than or equal to them, we can avoid the invalidation of super region and some related false positives in this situation. Note: This patch uses `size` as an approximation of `size - dstLen - 1` in `strlcat` case because currently analyzer doesn't handle complex expressions like this very well. Closes #143807.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
