Thanks, this is great! Two more things:

- You have touched other code, unrelated to your patch, with clang-format; we're usually trying to avoid that, because it creates merge conflicts out of nowhere, and because some of that code actually seems formatted by hand intentionally. It's better to revert these changes; you can use the `git clang-format` thing to format only actual changes.

- Updating .gitignore sounds like the right thing to do (llvm's .gitignore already has this), but i guess we'd better make a separate commit for that.



================
Comment at: lib/StaticAnalyzer/Checkers/PthreadLockChecker.cpp:143-146
+    if(lstate->isSchrodingerUntouched())
+      state = state->remove<LockMap>(lockR);
+    else if(lstate->isSchrodingerUnlocked())
+      state = state->set<LockMap>(lockR, LockState::getUnlocked());

Yep, that's a great thing to do. I didn't notice this.

Generally, it's great to keep the program state free from stuff that would no longer be necessary.
