Undefined Behavior Sanitizer (UBSan)
------------------------------------
-- The Undefined Behavior Sanitizer has a new check for pointer overflow. This
- check is on by default. The flag to control this functionality is
- -fsanitize=pointer-overflow.
-
- Pointer overflow is an indicator of undefined behavior: when a pointer
- indexing expression wraps around the address space, or produces other
- unexpected results, its result may not point to a valid object.
-
-- UBSan has several new checks which detect violations of nullability
- annotations. These checks are off by default. The flag to control this group
- of checks is -fsanitize=nullability. The checks can be individially enabled
- by -fsanitize=nullability-arg (which checks calls),
- -fsanitize=nullability-assign (which checks assignments), and
- -fsanitize=nullability-return (which checks return statements).
-
-- UBSan can now detect invalid loads from bitfields and from ObjC BOOLs.
-
-- UBSan can now avoid emitting unnecessary type checks in C++ class methods and
- in several other cases where the result is known at compile-time. UBSan can
- also avoid emitting unnecessary overflow checks in arithmetic expressions
- with promoted integer operands.
