<div><br></div><div>In particular, I don't understand an aversion to 'stddef.h' and 'size_t'. These don't come from the OS, they come from the standard and from the compiler. The 'stddef.h' that ships with Clang doesn't include any other headers. It cannot be simulated by your code because it leverages implementation-details to expose standard interfaces such as 'size_t'.</div>
<div><br></div><div>For example, 'stddef.h' can be included into code that is compiled with -ffreestanding, and thus without any system libraries or headers. It seems like that should be a sufficiently strict bar for portability for ASan?</div>

<br></div></div></div><div>It is indeed very pitty that we can not use the standard size_t. I'd love to be able to. </div><div>This has something to do with Windows. </div><div>We can not build asan run-time with clang on Windows (at least yet), so we have to build it with MSVC. </div>
<div>There, stddef.h is not nice at all. (Frankly, I don't remember exactly, but I think it just doesn't define size_t at all).</div></div></font></div></blockquote><div><br></div></div></div><div>Wait, what?</div>

<div>I can't really believe this:</div><div><br></div><div>#include <stddef.h></div><div><br></div><div>size_t x = 42u;</div><div><br></div><div>Fails to compile on windows. If it does, I would suggest a more targeted fix rather than avoiding stddef.h / size_t... Providing a tiny stub of code to include stddef.h, and forcibly typedef size_t to something reasonable if MSVC has left us hanging seems much better than avoiding size_t in standard spec'ed interfaces.</div>
