[msan] Add 'MappingDesc::ALLOCATOR' type and check it is available (#85153) MSan divides the virtual address space into APP, INVALID, SHADOW and ORIGIN memory. The allocator usually just steals a bit of the APP address space: typically the bottom portion of the PIE binaries section, which works because the Linux kernel maps from the top of the PIE binaries section. However, if ASLR is very aggressive, the binary may end up mapped in the same location where the allocator wants to live; this results in a segfault. This patch adds in a MappingDesc::ALLOCATOR type and enforces that the memory range for the allocator is not occupied by anything else. Since the allocator range information is not readily available in msan.h, we duplicate the information from msan_allocator.cpp. Note: aggressive ASLR can also lead to a different type of failure, where the PIE binaries/libraries are mapped entirely outside of the APP/ALLOCATOR sections; that will be addressed in a separate patch (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/85142).
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.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.
