Summary: Introduce a new function 'clang_analyzer_value'. It emits a report that in turn prints a RangeSet or APSInt associated with SVal. If there is no associated value, prints "n/a".
CStringChecker is using getByteLength to get the length of a string
literal. For targets where a "char" is 8-bits, getByteLength() and
getLength() will be equal for a C string, but for targets where a "char"
is 16-bits getByteLength() returns the size in octets.
This is verified in our downstream target, but we have no way to add a
test case for this case since there is no target supporting 16-bit
"char" upstream. Since this cannot have a test case, I'm asserted this
change is "correct by construction", and visually inspected to be
correct by way of the following example where this was found.
The case that shows this fails using a target with 16-bit chars is here.
getByteLength() for the string literal returns 4, which fails when
checked against "char x[4]". With the change, the string literal is
evaluated to a size of 2 which is a correct number of "char"'s for a
16-bit target.
```
void strcpy_no_overflow_2(char *y) {
char x[4];
strcpy(x, "12"); // with getByteLength(), returns 4 using 16-bit chars
}
```
This change exposed that embedded nulls within the string are not
handled. This is documented as a FIXME for a future fix.
```
void strcpy_no_overflow_3(char *y) {
char x[3];
strcpy(x, "12\0");
}

Extend checker 'ErrnoModeling' with a state of 'errno' to indicate
the importance of the 'errno' value and how it should be used.
Add a new checker 'ErrnoChecker' that observes use of 'errno' and
finds possible wrong uses, based on the "errno state".
The "errno state" should be set (together with value of 'errno')
by other checkers (that perform modeling of the given function)
in the future. Currently only a test function can set this value.
The new checker has no user-observable effect yet.

There are many more instances of this pattern, but I chose to limit this change to .rst files (docs), anything in libcxx/include, and string literals. These have the highest chance of being seen by end users.

This change adds an option to detect all null dereferences for
non-default address spaces, except for address spaces 256, 257 and 258.
Those address spaces are special since null dereferences are not errors.
All address spaces can be considered (except for 256, 257, and 258) by
using -analyzer-config
core.NullDereference:DetectAllNullDereferences=true. This option is
false by default, retaining the original behavior.
A LIT test was enhanced to cover this case, and the rst documentation
was updated to describe this behavior.

This error was found when analyzing MySQL with CTU enabled.
When there are space characters in the lookup name, the current
delimiter searching strategy will make the file path wrongly parsed.
And when two lookup names have the same prefix before their first space
characters, a 'multiple definitions' error will be wrongly reported.
e.g. The lookup names for the two lambda exprs in the test case are
`c:@S@G@F@G#@Sa@F@operator int (*)(char)#1` and
`c:@S@G@F@G#@Sa@F@operator bool (*)(char)#1` respectively. And their
prefixes are both `c:@S@G@F@G#@Sa@F@operator` when using the first space
character as the delimiter.
Solving the problem by adding a length for the lookup name, making the
index items in the format of `<USR-Length>:<USR File> <Path>`.
---
In the test case of this patch, we found that it will trigger a "triple
mismatch" warning when using `clang -cc1` to analyze the source file
with CTU using the on-demand-parsing strategy in Darwin systems. And
this problem is also encountered in D75665, which is the patch
introducing the on-demand parsing strategy.
We temporarily bypass this problem by using the loading-ast-file
strategy.

Few weeks back I was experimenting with reading the uninitialized values from src , which is actually a bug but the CSA seems to give up at that point . I was curious about that and I pinged @steakhal on the discord and according to him this seems to be a genuine issue and needs to be fix. So I goes with fixing this bug and thanks to @steakhal who help me creating this patch. This feature seems to break some tests but this was the genuine problem and the broken tests also needs to fix in certain manner. I add a test but yeah we need more tests,I'll try to add more tests.Thanks

MallocOverflow works in two phases:
1) Collects suspicious malloc calls, whose argument is a multiplication
2) Filters the aggregated list of suspicious malloc calls by iterating
over the BasicBlocks of the CFG looking for comparison binary
operators over the variable constituting in any suspicious malloc.
Consequently, it suppressed true-positive cases when the comparison
check was after the malloc call.
In this patch the checker will consider the relative position of the
relation check to the malloc call.
E.g.:
```lang=C++
void *check_after_malloc(int n, int x) {
int *p = NULL;
if (x == 42)
p = malloc(n * sizeof(int)); // Previously **no** warning, now it
// warns about this.
// The check is after the allocation!
if (n > 10) {
// Do something conditionally.
}
return p;
}
```

what the capabilities of this checker are.
In this patch, I add some clarification on when does the checker issue a

I'm also advertising suppressing such reports by adding an assertion, as
demonstrated by the test3().
I'm highlighting that this checker might produce an extensive amount of
