MemorySanitizer is a compile-time instrumentation layer in clang and GCC.
Together with AddressSanitizer mostly makes the run-time instrumentation
of Valgrind redundant. It is a little more tricky to set up, because
running with uninstrumented libraries will lead into false positives.
You will need an instrumented libc++, and you should use
-stdlib=libc++ instead of the default libstdc++. To build the
instrumented library, you can refer to
https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/MemorySanitizerLibcxxHowTo
or you can adapt these steps that worked for me, for clang-8 version 8.0.1:
cd /mariadb
sudo apt source libc++-8-dev
cd llvm-toolchain-8-8.0.1
mkdir libc++msan; cd libc++msan
cmake ../libcxx -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLVM_USE_SANITIZER=Memory \
-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang-8 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++-8
Then, in your MariaDB build directory, you have to compile with
libc++ and bundled libraries, such as WITH_SSL=bundled, WITH_ZLIB=bundled.
For uninstrumented system libraries, you will get false positives for
uninitialized values. Like this:
cmake -DWITH_MSAN=ON -DWITH_SSL=bundled -DWITH_ZLIB=bundled \
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS='-stdlib=libc++' ..
Note: you should also add -O2 to the compiler options, or you may
get crashes due to stack overflow.
Finally, to run tests, you must replace libc++ with the instrumented one:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mariadb/llvm-toolchain-8-8.0.1/libc++msan/lib \
MSAN_OPTIONS=abort_on_error=1 \
./mtr --big-test --parallel=auto --force --retry=0
Failure to do so will report numerous false positives related to
operations on std::string and the like.
This is work in progress. Some issues will still have to be fixed
for WITH_MSAN to be usable. See MDEV-20377 for details.
RPM solution:
Make all server plugins to restart the server when installed.
To avoid multiple server restarts, do it only once in posttrans scriptlet.
Add support for CPACK_RPM_<component>_POST_TRANS_SCRIPT_FILE
- the probably ultimate fix for dependencies on VS
- remove some GET_TARGET_PROPERTY(LOCATION ...), they are deprecated in
cmake 3.9
- simplify signing targets on Windows.
- remove INSTALL_DEBUG_TARGET, we do not mix binaries from different builds
in the same package
Also, include fixes by Vladislav Vaintroub to the
aws_key_management plugin. The AWS C++ SDK specifically depends on
OPENSSL_LIBRARIES, not generic SSL_LIBRARIES (such as YaSSL).
Do not exporting mysqld entry points directly.
This is needed for mariabackup, to load encryption plugins on Windows.
All plugins are "pure" by default. To mark plugin "impure"
it should use RECOMPILE_FOR_EMBEDDED or STORAGE_ENGINE keyword.
in MYSQL_ADD_PLUGIN, do not add TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES twice for the LINK_LIBRARIES parameter
It is usually harmless to add libraries twice.
However, aws_key_management uses -Wl,-whole-archive to workaround linker issues on Linux
If libraries are added twice with whole-archive, linking will fail complaining about duplicate symbols
To export symbols from the mysqld.exe, use lib.exe with /DEF, rather than
pre-link step when building mysqld.exe.
This helps to avoid relinking all plugins, if mysqld.exe was recompiled
but the list of its exports has not changed.
Also removed unnecessary DEPENDS in some ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND (gen_lex_token,
gen_lex_hash etc). They confuse VS generator which tends to
recreate headers and do unnecessary recompilations.
* define MYSQL_DYNAMIC_PLUGIN only for server plugins
* don't typedef my_bool in mysql.h if plugin.h has already done it
* fix the include guard in plugin.h
Remove ONLY_IF clause in MYSQL_ADD_PLUGIN and the requirement
that every plugin's CMakeLists.txt *must* do MYSQL_ADD_PLUGIN
for PLUGIN_XXX=YES to work. This was very fragile and cannot be
relied on.
Use a different implementation of =YES check - iterate all
PLUGIN_* variables and see which one doesn't have a matching target.
Revert all ONLY_IF changes in CMakeLists.txt files.
