into the initialization list instead. This does not only improves the
readability of the code but also affects positively its performance.
Class-member assignments inside a control statement or following the
first control statement are ignored.

This checks finds all primitive type local variables (integers, doubles, pointers) that are declared without an initial value. Includes fixit functionality to initialize said variables with a default value. This is zero for most types and NaN for floating point types. The use of NaNs is copied from the D programming language.
Patch by Jussi Pakkanen.

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.

Summary:
[[ https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39224 | PR39224 ]]
As discussed, we can't always do the transform automatically due to that array-to-pointer decay of C array.
In order to detect whether we can do said transform, we'd need to be able to see all usages of said array,
which is, i would say, rather impossible if e.g. it is in the header.
Thus right now no fixit exists.
Exceptions: `extern "C"` code.

The usage of `goto` is discourage in C++ since forever. This check implements
a warning for every `goto`. Even though there are (rare) valid use cases for
`goto`, better high level constructs should be used.
`goto` is used sometimes in C programs to free resources at the end of
functions in the case of errors. This pattern is better implemented with
RAII in C++.

This check implements the typebased semantic of `gsl::owner`.
Meaning, that
- only `gsl::owner` is allowed to get `delete`d
- `new` expression must be assigned to `gsl::owner`
- function calls that expect `gsl::owner` as argument, must get either an owner
or a newly created and recognized resource (in the moment only `new`ed memory)
- assignment to `gsl::owner` must be either a resource or another owner
- functions returning an `gsl::owner` are considered as factories, and their result
must be assigned to an `gsl::owner`
- classes that have an `gsl::owner`-member must declare a non-default destructor
There are some problems that occur when typededuction is in place.
For example `auto Var = function_that_returns_owner();` the type of `Var` will not be
an `gsl::owner`. This case is catched, and explicitly noted.
But cases like fully templated functions
```
template <typename T>
void f(T t) { delete t; }
// ...
f(gsl::owner<int*>(new int(42)));
```
Will created false positive (the deletion is problematic), since the type deduction
removes the wrapping `typeAlias`.

Summary:
This checker flags the use of C-style memory management functionality and notes about modern alternatives.
In an earlier revision it tried to autofix some kind of patterns, but that was a bad idea. Since memory management can be so widespread in a program, manual updating is most likely necessary.
Maybe for special cases, there could be later additions to this basic checker.
This is the first checker I wrote and I never did something with clang (only compiling programs). So whenever I missed conventions or did plain retarded stuff, feel free to point it out! I am willing to fix them and write a better checker.
I hope the patch does work, I never did this either. On a testapply in my repository it did, but I am pretty unconfident in my patching skills :)

Summary:
This patch is a continuation of http://reviews.llvm.org/D10553 by Jonathan B Coe.
The main additions are:
1. For C++11 the check suggests in-class field initialization as fix. This
makes the fields future proof towards the addition of new constructors.
2 For older language versions the fields are added in the right position
in the initializer list with more tests.
3. User documentation.

Summary:
This is http://reviews.llvm.org/D13746 but instead of including <array>,
a stub is provided.
This check flags all array subscriptions on static arrays and
std::arrays that either have a non-compile-time-constant index or are
out of bounds.
Dynamic accesses into arrays are difficult for both tools and humans to
validate as safe. array_view is a bounds-checked, safe type for
accessing arrays of data. at() is another alternative that ensures
single accesses are bounds-checked. If iterators are needed to access an
array, use the iterators from an array_view constructed over the array.

Summary:
This check flags all use of c-style casts that perform a static_cast
downcast, const_cast, or reinterpret_cast.
Use of these casts can violate type safety and cause the program to
access a
variable that is actually of type X to be accessed as if it were of an
unrelated type Z. Note that a C-style (T)expression cast means to
perform
the first of the following that is possible: a const_cast, a
static_cast, a
static_cast followed by a const_cast, a reinterpret_cast, or a
reinterpret_cast followed by a const_cast. This rule bans (T)expression
only when used to perform an unsafe cast.

Summary:
This check flags all calls to c-style vararg functions and all use
of va_list, va_start and va_arg.
Passing to varargs assumes the correct type will be read. This is
fragile because it cannot generally be enforced to be safe in the
language and so relies on programmer discipline to get it right.
This rule is part of the "Type safety" profile of the C++ Core
Guidelines, see

This commits also reverts
"[clang-tidy] add cert's VariadicFunctionDefCheck as cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-vararg-def"
because that check makes the SFINAE use of vararg functions impossible.

Summary:
This check flags all access to members of unions. Passing unions as a
whole is not flagged.
Reading from a union member assumes that member was the last one
written, and writing to a union member assumes another member with a
nontrivial destructor had its destructor called. This is fragile because
it cannot generally be enforced to be safe in the language and so relies
on programmer discipline to get it right.

This check flags all usage of pointer arithmetic, because it could lead

Subtraction of two pointers is not flagged by this check.
Pointers should only refer to single objects, and pointer arithmetic is

for accessing arrays of data.

to a derived class.
In those cases, a fixit is provided to convert the cast to a

access a variable that is actually of type X to be accessed as if it
were of an unrelated type Z.
