Traditionally, clang-tidy uses the term check, and the analyzer uses checker,
but in the very early years, this wasn't the case, and code originating from the
early 2010's still incorrectly refer to checkers as checks.
This patch attempts to hunt down most of these, aiming to refer to checkers as
checkers, but preserve references to callback functions (like checkPreCall) as
checks.

This patch effectively fixes the almost decade old checker naming issue.
The solution is to assert when CheckerManager::getChecker is called on an
unregistered checker, and assert when CheckerManager::registerChecker is called
on a checker that is already registered.

Unfortunately, up until now, the fact that certain checkers depended on one
another was known, but how these actually unfolded was hidden deep within the
implementation. For example, many checkers (like RetainCount, Malloc or CString)
modelled a certain functionality, and exposed certain reportable bug types to
the user. For example, while MallocChecker models many many different types of
memory handling, the actual "unix.MallocChecker" checker the user was exposed to
was merely and option to this modeling part.
Other than this being an ugly mess, this issue made resolving the checker naming
issue almost impossible. (The checker naming issue being that if a checker
registered more than one checker within its registry function, both checker
object recieved the same name) Also, if the user explicitly disabled a checker
that was a dependency of another that _was_ explicitly enabled, it implicitly,
without "telling" the user, reenabled it.
Clearly, changing this to a well structured, declarative form, where the
handling of dependencies are done on a higher level is very much preferred.
This patch, among the detailed things later, makes checkers declare their
dependencies within the TableGen file Checkers.td, and exposes the same
functionality to plugins and statically linked non-generated checkers through
CheckerRegistry::addDependency. CheckerRegistry now resolves these dependencies,
makes sure that checkers are added to CheckerManager in the correct order,
and makes sure that if a dependency is disabled, so will be every checker that
depends on it.
In detail:
* Add a new field to the Checker class in CheckerBase.td called Dependencies,
which is a list of Checkers.
* Move unix checkers before cplusplus, as there is no forward declaration in
tblgen :/
* Add the following new checkers:
- StackAddrEscapeBase
- StackAddrEscapeBase
- CStringModeling
- DynamicMemoryModeling (base of the MallocChecker family)
- IteratorModeling (base of the IteratorChecker family)
- ValistBase
- SecuritySyntaxChecker (base of bcmp, bcopy, etc...)
- NSOrCFErrorDerefChecker (base of NSErrorChecker and CFErrorChecker)
- IvarInvalidationModeling (base of IvarInvalidation checker family)
- RetainCountBase (base of RetainCount and OSObjectRetainCount)
* Clear up and registry functions in MallocChecker, happily remove old FIXMEs.
* Add a new addDependency function to CheckerRegistry.
* Neatly format RUN lines in files I looked at while debugging.
Big thanks to Artem Degrachev for all the guidance through this project!

Introduce the boolean ento::shouldRegister##CHECKERNAME(const LangOptions &LO)
function very similarly to ento::register##CHECKERNAME. This will force every
checker to implement this function, but maybe it isn't that bad: I saw a lot of
ObjC or C++ specific checkers that should probably not register themselves based
on some LangOptions (mine too), but they do anyways.
A big benefit of this is that all registry functions now register their checker,
once it is called, registration is guaranteed.
This patch is a part of a greater effort to reinvent checker registration, more

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

ClangCheckerRegistry is a very non-obvious, poorly documented, weird concept.
It derives from CheckerRegistry, and is placed in lib/StaticAnalyzer/Frontend,
whereas it's base is located in lib/StaticAnalyzer/Core. It was, from what I can
imagine, used to circumvent the problem that the registry functions of the
checkers are located in the clangStaticAnalyzerCheckers library, but that
library depends on clangStaticAnalyzerCore. However, clangStaticAnalyzerFrontend
depends on both of those libraries.
One can make the observation however, that CheckerRegistry has no place in Core,
it isn't used there at all! The only place where it is used is Frontend, which
is where it ultimately belongs.
This move implies that since
include/clang/StaticAnalyzer/Checkers/ClangCheckers.h only contained a single function:
class CheckerRegistry;
void registerBuiltinCheckers(CheckerRegistry ®istry);
it had to re purposed, as CheckerRegistry is no longer available to
clangStaticAnalyzerCheckers. It was renamed to BuiltinCheckerRegistration.h,
which actually describes it a lot better -- it does not contain the registration
functions for checkers, but only those generated by the tblgen files.

So I wrote a clang-tidy check to lint out redundant `isa`, `cast`, and
`dyn_cast`s for fun. This is a portion of what it found for clang; I
plan to do similar cleanups in LLVM and other subprojects when I find
time.
Because of the volume of changes, I explicitly avoided making any change
that wasn't highly local and obviously correct to me (e.g. we still have
a number of foo(cast<Bar>(baz)) that I didn't touch, since overloading
is a thing and the cast<Bar> did actually change the type -- just up the
class hierarchy).
I also tried to leave the types we were cast<>ing to somewhere nearby,
in cases where it wasn't locally obvious what we were dealing with
before.

PropertyMap used to map IdentifierInfo (name of the property) to
ObjcPropertyDecl *. Now that a class property can have the same name as
an instance property, we change PropertyMap to map a pair <IdentifierInfo *,
unsigned> to ObjcPropertyDecl *.
Also update a few places from iterating over instance_properties to
iterating over all properties.

Now that SmallString is a first-class citizen, most SmallString::str()
calls are not required. This patch removes a whole bunch of them, yet
there are lots more.
There are two use cases where str() is really needed:
1) To use one of StringRef member functions which is not available in
SmallString.
2) To convert to std::string, as StringRef implicitly converts while
SmallString do not. We may wish to change this, but it may introduce
ambiguity.

Summary:
In clang-tidy we'd like to know the name of the checker producing each
diagnostic message. PathDiagnostic has BugType and Category fields, which are
both arbitrary human-readable strings, but we need to know the exact name of the
checker in the form that can be used in the CheckersControlList option to
enable/disable the specific checker.
This patch adds the CheckName field to the CheckerBase class, and sets it in
the CheckerManager::registerChecker() method, which gets them from the
CheckerRegistry.
Checkers that implement multiple checks have to store the names of each check
in the respective registerXXXChecker method.

- If only partial invalidators exist and there are no full invalidators in @implementation, report every ivar that has
not been invalidated. (Previously, we reported the first Ivar in the list, which could actually have been invalidated
by a partial invalidator. The code assumed you cannot have only partial invalidators.)
- Do not report missing invalidation method declaration if a partial invalidation method declaration exists.
llvm-svn: 180170
The missing definition check should be in the same category as the
missing ivar validation - in this case, the intent is to invalidate in
the given class, as described in the declaration, but the implementation
does not perform the invalidation. Whereas the MissingInvalidationMethod
checker checks the cases where the method intention is not to
invalidate. The second checker has potential to have a much higher false
positive rate.
llvm-svn: 174787
The new annotation allows having methods that only partially invalidate
IVars and might not be called from the invalidation methods directly
(instead, are guaranteed to be called before the invalidation occurs).
The checker is going to trust the programmer to call the partial
invalidation method before the invalidator.This is common in cases when
partial object tear down happens before the death of the object.

consider (sub)module visibility.
The bulk of this change replaces myriad hand-rolled loops over the
linked list of Objective-C categories/extensions attached to an
interface declaration with loops using one of the four new category
iterator kinds:
visible_categories_iterator: Iterates over all visible categories
and extensions, hiding any that have their "hidden" bit set. This is
by far the most commonly used iterator.
known_categories_iterator: Iterates over all categories and
extensions, ignoring the "hidden" bit. This tends to be used for
redeclaration-like traversals.
visible_extensions_iterator: Iterates over all visible extensions,
hiding any that have their "hidden" bit set.
known_extensions_iterator: Iterates over all extensions, whether
they are visible to normal name lookup or not.
The effect of this change is that any uses of the visible_ iterators
will respect module-import visibility. See the new tests for examples.
Note that the old accessors for categories and extensions are gone;
there are *Raw() forms for some of them, for those (few) areas of the
compiler that have to manipulate the linked list of categories
directly. This is generally discouraged.

assertions.
To ensure that custom assertions/conditional would also be supported,
just check if the ivar that needs to be invalidated or set to nil is
compared against 0.
Unfortunately, this will not work for code containing 'assert(IvarName)'
llvm-svn: 172147
In some cases, we just pick any ivar that needs invalidation and attach
the warning to it. Picking the first from DenseMap of pointer keys was
triggering non-deterministic output.
llvm-svn: 172134
Restructured the checker so that it could easily find two new classes of
issues:
- when a class contains an invalidatable ivar, but no declaration of an
invalidation method
- when a class contains an invalidatable ivar, but no definition of an
invalidation method in the @implementation.
The second case might trigger some false positives, for example, when
the method is defined in a category.
llvm-svn: 172104
When a property is "inherited" through both a parent class and directly
through a protocol, we should not require the child to invalidate it
since the backing ivar belongs to the parent class.

This required manually correcting all of the incorrect main-module
headers I could find, and running the new llvm/utils/sort_includes.py
script over the files.
I also manually added quite a few missing headers that were uncovered by

the validation occurred.
The original implementation was pessimistic - we assumed that ivars
which escape are invalidated. This version is optimistic, it assumes
that the ivars will always be explicitly invalidated: either set to nil
or sent an invalidation message.
