DFSan changes the ABI of each function in the module. This makes it possible
for a function with the native ABI to be called with the instrumented ABI,
or vice versa, thus possibly invoking undefined behavior. A simple way
of statically detecting instances of this problem is to prepend the prefix
"dfs$" to the name of each instrumented-ABI function.
This will not catch every such problem; in particular function pointers passed
across the instrumented-native barrier cannot be used on the other side.
These problems could potentially be caught dynamically.

DataFlowSanitizer is a generalised dynamic data flow analysis.
Unlike other Sanitizer tools, this tool is not designed to detect a
specific class of bugs on its own. Instead, it provides a generic
dynamic data flow analysis framework to be used by clients to help
detect application-specific issues within their own code.
