In the analyzer's path-sensitive reports, when a report goes through a branch
and the branch condition cannot be decided to be definitely true or false
(based on the previous execution path), an event piece is added that tells the
user that a new assumption is added upon the symbolic value of the branch
condition. For example, "Assuming 'a' is equal to 3".
The text of the assumption is hand-crafted in various manners depending on
the AST expression. If the AST expression is too complex and the text of
the assumption fails to be constructed, the event piece is omitted.
This causes loss of information and misunderstanding of the report.
Do not omit the event piece even if the expression is too complex;
add a piece with a generic text instead.

Update RegionStoreManager::getBinding() to return UnknownVal when trying to get
the binding for a BlockDataRegion. Previously, getBinding() would try to cast the
BlockDataRegion to a TypedValueRegion and crash. This happened when a block
was passed as a parameter to an inlined function for which
StackHintGeneratorForSymbol::getMessage() tried to generate a stack hint message.

This patch adds hashes to the plist and html output to be able to identfy bugs
for suppressing false positives or diff results against a baseline. This hash
aims to be resilient for code evolution and is usable to identify bugs in two
different snapshots of the same software. One missing piece however is a
permanent unique identifier of the checker that produces the warning. Once that
issue is resolved, the hashes generated are going to change. Until that point
this feature is marked experimental, but it is suitable for early adoption.

...but don't yet migrate over the existing plist tests. Some of these
would be trivial to migrate; others could use a bit of inspection first.
In any case, though, the new edge algorithm seems to have proven itself,
and we'd like more coverage (and more usage) of it going forwards.

The location of the note is already in the caller, not the callee, so this
just brings the "depth" attribute in line with that.
This only affects plist diagnostic consumers (i.e. Xcode). It's necessary
for Xcode to associate the control flow arrows with the right stack frame.

The issue here is that if we have 2 leaks reported at the same line for
which we cannot print the corresponding region info, they will get
treated as the same by issue_hash+description. We need to AUGMENT the
issue_hash with the allocation info to differentiate the two issues.
Add the "hash" (offset from the beginning of a function) representing
allocation site to solve the issue.
We might want to generalize solution in the future when we decide to
track more than just the 2 locations from the diagnostics.

This fixes a few cases where we'd emit path notes like this:
+---+
1| v
p = malloc(len);
^ |2
+---+
In general this should make path notes more consistent and more correct,
especially in cases where the leak happens on the false branch of an if
that jumps directly to the end of the function. There are a couple places
where the leak is reported farther away from the cause; these are usually
cases where there are several levels of nested braces before the end of
the function. This still matches our current behavior for when there /is/
a statement after all the braces, though.

This allows us to properly remove dead bindings at the end of the top-level
stack frame, using the ReturnStmt, if there is one, to keep the return value
live. This in turn removes the need for a check::EndPath callback in leak
checkers.
This does cause some changes in the path notes for leak checkers. Previously,
a leak would be reported at the location of the closing brace in a function.
Now, it gets reported at the last statement. This matches the way leaks are
currently reported for inlined functions, but is less than ideal for both.

CmpRuns.py can be used to compare issues from different analyzer runs.
Since it uses the issue line number to unique 2 issues, adding a new
line to the beginning of a file makes all issues in the file reported as
new.
The hash will be an opaque value which could be used (along with the
function name) by CmpRuns to identify the same issues. This way, we only
fail to identify the same issue from two runs if the function it appears
in changes (not perfect, but much better than nothing).

We report a leak at a point a leaked variable is no longer accessible.
The statement that happens to be at that point is not relevant to the
leak diagnostic and, thus, should not be highlighted.

values through interesting expressions. This allows us to map from interesting values in a caller
to interesting values in a caller, thus recovering some precision in diagnostics lost from IPA.

This is needed to ensure that we always report issues in the correct
function. For example, leaks are identified when we call remove dead
bindings. In order to make sure we report a callee's leak in the callee,
we have to run the operation in the callee's context.
This change required quite a bit of infrastructure work since:
- We used to only run remove dead bindings before a given statement;
here we need to run it after the last statement in the function. For
this, we added additional Program Point and special mode in the
SymbolReaper to remove all symbols in context lower than the current
one.
- The call exit operation turned into a sequence of nodes, which are
now guarded by CallExitBegin and CallExitEnd nodes for clarity and
convenience.
(Sorry for the long diff.)

Specifically, we use the last store of the leaked symbol in the leak diagnostic.
(No support for struct fields since the malloc checker doesn't track those
yet.)
+ Infrastructure to track the regions used in store evaluations.
This approach is more precise than iterating the store to
obtain the region bound to the symbol, which is used in RetainCount
checker. The region corresponds to what is uttered in the code in the
last store and we do not rely on the store implementation to support
this functionality.
llvm-svn: 153212
This is accomplished by calling markInteresting /during/ path diagnostic generation, and as such relies on deterministic ordering of BugReporterVisitors -- namely, that BugReporterVisitors are run in /reverse/ order from how they are added. (Right now that's a consequence of storing visitors in an ImmutableList, where new items are added to the front.) It's a little hacky, but it works for now.
I think this is the best we can do without storing the relation between the old and new symbols, and that would be a hit whether or not there ends up being an error.
llvm-svn: 153010
The symbol-aware stack hint combines the checker-provided message
with the information about how the symbol was passed to the callee: as
a parameter or a return value.
For malloc, the generated messages look like this :
"Returning from 'foo'; released memory via 1st parameter"
"Returning from 'foo'; allocated memory via 1st parameter"
"Returning from 'foo'; allocated memory returned"
"Returning from 'foo'; reallocation of 1st parameter failed"
(We are yet to handle cases when the symbol is a field in a struct or
an array element.)
llvm-svn: 152962
BugVisitor DiagnosticPieces.
When checkers create a DiagnosticPieceEvent, they can supply an extra
string, which will be concatenated with the call exit message for every
call on the stack between the diagnostic event and the final bug report.
(This is a simple version, which could be/will be further enhanced.)
For example, this is used in Malloc checker to produce the ",
which allocated memory" in the following example:
static char *malloc_wrapper() { // 2. Entered call from 'use'
return malloc(12); // 3. Memory is allocated
}
void use() {
char *v;
v = malloc_wrapper(); // 1. Calling 'malloc_wrappers'
// 4. Returning from 'malloc_wrapper', which allocated memory
} // 5. Memory is never released; potential
memory leak

Essentially, a bug centers around a story for various symbols and regions. We should only include
the path diagnostic events that relate to those symbols and regions.
The pruning is done by associating a set of interesting symbols and regions with a BugReporter, which
can be modified at BugReport creation or by BugReporterVisitors.
This patch reduces the diagnostics emitted in several of our test cases. I've vetted these as
having desired behavior. The only regression is a missing null check diagnostic for the return
value of realloc() in test/Analysis/malloc-plist.c. This will require some investigation to fix,
and I have added a FIXME to the test case.
llvm-svn: 152361
piece can always be generated.
The default end of diagnostic path piece was failing to generate on a
BlockEdge that was outgoing from a basic block without a terminator,
resulting in a very simple diagnostic being rendered (ex: no path
highlighting or custom visitors). Reuse another function, which is
essentially doing the same thing and correct it not to fail when a block
has no terminator.
