[PATCH] D119816: Fix not working attribute no_sanitize bounds that affects linux kernel

[Marco Elver via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

melver added a comment.

Adding a new IR attribute comes with a whole slew of other required changes. Please see https://reviews.llvm.org/D102772 for an example.

In addition, please update the patch description to explain what the problem is exactly (remove the old kernel-specific problem, because it's only a distraction). In particular, what current no_sanitize does (because it does something for "bounds checking), and what is missing. Introducing a new IR attribute needs to be properly justified, so if you can explain why this can't be solved another way would also be useful (something like .. the local-bounds code generation happens in the middleend and not frontend unlike some other UBSAN checks).

Also, you need to add some IR tests.
