ASan allocator stores the requested alignment for new and new[] calls
and on delete and delete[] verifies that alignments do match.
The representable alignments are: default alignment, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128,
256 and 512 bytes. Alignments > 512 are stored as 512, hence two
different alignments > 512 will pass the check (possibly masking the bug),
but limited memory requirements deemed to be a resonable tradeoff for
relaxed conditions.
The feature is controlled by new_delete_type_mismatch flag, the same one
protecting new/delete matching size check.

AddressSanitizer RT
================================
This directory contains sources of the AddressSanitizer (ASan) runtime library.
Directory structure:
README.txt : This file.
Makefile.mk : File for make-based build.
CMakeLists.txt : File for cmake-based build.
asan_*.{cc,h} : Sources of the asan runtime library.
scripts/* : Helper scripts.
tests/* : ASan unit tests.
Also ASan runtime needs the following libraries:
lib/interception/ : Machinery used to intercept function calls.
lib/sanitizer_common/ : Code shared between various sanitizers.
ASan runtime currently also embeds part of LeakSanitizer runtime for
leak detection (lib/lsan/lsan_common.{cc,h}).
ASan runtime can only be built by CMake. You can run ASan tests
from the root of your CMake build tree:
make check-asan
