<div>Legacy PM inlines at -O2/-O3, new PM inlines at

<div>I tried moving the *San passes before inlining and now
the tests that I was having trouble with pass, but new tests
that specifically test inlining fail, so I think it's
probably fairly important to run *San passes after inlining.
But I tried moving them right after inlining (before
SROA/something gets to optimize things out) and some TSan
tests now fail. I found out TSan expects to be run after
pretty much all other passes so that it can change any
memset/memcpy intrinsics into just the normal function call
to memset()/memcpy(). But if we move TSan to be run before
InstCombine, then InstCombine will change calls to
memset()/memcpy() back to the intrinsics and the tests don't
like that. I think it's reasonable to treat all *San passes
the same way, so I don't think putting ASan somewhere
different from TSan makes sense. But that means there's no
good place to put these sanitizers.</div>
</div>

</div>
<div>I feel like a lot of these sanitizer tests just happened to
work at -O1 under the legacy PM. I think I'll try having the
new PM not inline when any sanitizers are enabled and see if I
can keep the house of cards standing. Or is it a bad idea to
change the PM behavior based on the detection of sanitizers,
since sanitizers won't be testing the same code you'd get
without sanitizing (e.g. a lot of the inlining tests would
lose a lot of their value)?</div>

While trying newPM with inliner turned off on O1 is fine and
probably a right approach on digging into the cause of the failure,<br>
actually changing Ox to be that different depending on sanitizer
mode seems to be a bad idea to me.<br>

<p>I think that is right. The more transformations you run

<pre>Just tested it out, that test does indeed fail under the old PM at -O3 and
even at -O2.
If the ASan pass runs after optimizations and is designed to detect
undefined behavior at runtime, I don't see how it can be super reliable at
higher optimization levels.

<pre>Hi,
I've been trying to burn down the remaining sanitizer failures under the
new pass manager. Right now I'm stuck on some ASan tests.
Some ASan tests run under -O1. There are a couple differences between
the old and new pass managers under -O1, e.g. the old PM doesn't inline
whereas the new PM does. The differences seem to cause some lifetime
intrinsics to get stripped out (e.g. via SROA, InstCombine). It might be
due to ASan specifically testing undefined behavior, and different
optimizations run means different behavior. For a specific example,
use-after-scope-dtor-order.cpp runs under -O1 and fails under the new PM
because SROA strips out the lifetime intrinsics and by the time the ASan
pass runs it doesn't find the lifetime intrinsics to add its own
instrumentation.
</pre>

<pre>That, to me, sounds like a real bug in the optimizations/asan
implementation if this choice fo optimizations makes the diagnosis go away.
(is ASan able to diagnose the problem at -O3 (where I guess SROA and other
things run) with the legacy pass manager?)

<pre>What's the proper way to resolve this? Run the tests under -O0? Change
the passes pipeline under the new PM when ASan (and maybe other sanitizers)
is detected?
