The process of upstreaming support to LLVM sanitizers has been finalized
I've finished the process of upstreaming patches to LLVM sanitizers (almost 2000LOC of local code) and submitted to upstream new improvements for the NetBSD support. Today out of the box (in unpatched version) we have support for a variety of compiler-rt LLVM features: ASan (finds unauthorized memory access), UBSan (finds unspecified code semantics), TSan (finds threading bugs), MSan (finds uninitialized memory use), SafeStack (double stack hardening), Profile (code coverage), XRay (dynamic code tracing); while other ones such as Scudo (hardened allocator) or DFSan (generic data flow sanitizer) are not far away from completeness.
The NetBSD support is no longer visibly lacking behind Linux in sanitizers, although there are still failing tests on NetBSD that are not observed on Linux. On the other hand there are features working on NetBSD that are not functional on Linux, like sanitizing programs during early initialization process of OS (this is caused by /proc dependency on Linux that is mounted by startup programs, while NetBSD relies on sysctl(3) interfaces that is always available).
Changes in compiler-rt
A number of patches have been merged upstream this month. Part of the upstreamed code has been originally written by Yang Zheng during GSoC-2018. My work was about cleaning the patches, applying comments from upstream review and writing new regression tests. Some of the changes were newly written over the past month, like background thread support in ASan/NetBSD or NetBSD compatible per-thread cleanup destructors in ASan and MSan.
Additionally, I've also ported the LLVM profile (--coverage) feature to NetBSD and investigated the remaining failing tests. Part of the failures were caused by already a copy of older runtime inside the NetBSD libc (ABIv2 libc vs ABIv4 current). The remaining two tests are affected by incompatible behavior of atexit(3) in Dynamic Shared Objects. Replacing the functionality with destructors didn't work and I've marked these tests as expected failures and moved on.

Changes in other LLVM projects
In order to eliminate local diffs in other LLVM projects, I've upstreamed two patches to LLVM and two to OpenMP. I've also helped other BSDs to get their support in OpenMP (DragonFlyBSD and OpenBSD).
LLVM changes:
- 50df229c26a Add NetBSD support in needsRuntimeRegistrationOfSectionRange.
- 267dfed3ade Register kASan shadow offset for NetBSD/amd64
OpenMP changes:
- 67d037d Implement __kmp_is_address_mapped() for NetBSD
- 9761977 Implement __kmp_gettid() for NetBSD
- a72c79b Add OpenBSD support to OpenMP
- b3d05ab Add DragonFlyBSD support to OpenMP
NetBSD changes
I've introduced 5 changes to the NetBSD source tree over the past month, not counting updates to TODO lists.
- Raise the fill_vmentries() E2BIG limit from 1MB to 10MB
- Correct libproc_p.a in distribution sets
- compiler_rt: Update prepare-import.sh according to future updates
- Correct handling of minval > maxval in strtonum(3)
- Stop mangling __func__ for C++11 and newer
The first change is needed to handle large address space with sysctl(3) operation to retrieve the map. This feature is required in sanitizers and part of the tests were failing because within 1MB it wasn't possible to pass all the information about the process virtual map (mostly due to a large number of small allocations).
The second change was introduced to unbreak MKPROFILE=no build, I needed this during my work of porting the modern LLVM profile feature.
The third change is a preparation for import of compiler-rt sanitizers into the NetBSD distribution.
The forth change was a bug fix for strtonum(3) implementation in libc.
The fifth change was intended to reuse native compiler support for the __func__ compiler symbol.
Integration of LLVM sanitizers with the NetBSD basesystem
We are ready to push support for LLVM sanitizers into the NetBSD basesystem as all the needed patches have been merged. I've divided the remaining tests of integration of LLVM sanitizers into three milestones:
- Import compiler-rt sources into src/. A complete diff is pending for final acceptance in internal review.
- Integrate building of compiler-rt stanitizer under the MKLLVM=yes option. This has been made functional, but it needs polishing and submitting to internal review.
- Make MKSANITIZER available out of the box with the toolchain available in "./build.sh tools". This will be continuation of the previous point. All the MKSANITIZER patches independent from compiler type are already committed into the NetBSD distribution, however there will be likely some extra minor adaptation work here too.
Plan for the next milestone
Finish the integration of LLVM sanitizers with the NetBSD distribution.
