Has anyone managed to dump an ASAN-enabled emacs recently?
I can build and use an ASAN-enabled temacs, but it's too slow, of course.
When I build as follows, (using latest gcc-built-from-today's-git[*] --
very recent gcc is required for my use of the new
-fsanitize-address-use-after-scope), the temacs-to-emacs dump fails
with a global-buffer-overflow:

  san='-fsanitize-address-use-after-scope -fsanitize=address -static-libasan'
  ./configure --prefix=/p/p/emacs-asan --without-gpm --without-x \
    --with-x-toolkit=no --with-png=no --with-jpeg=no --with-sound=no \
    CFLAGS="-O0 -ggdb3 $san" LDFLAGS="$san" && make

I guess it's not too surprising -- given what dumping does -- that it
is not yet ASAN-aware, but there are so many traces of address sanitizer
work already in emacs that I'm hoping someone has already dealt with this.

A while ago I got address sanitization to work with temacs, but gave up on 
dumped Emacs because it was too much of a pain. Since we already need to get 
Emacs to work without dumping for other reasons, I put the address-sanitization 
project on the back burner, figuring that it wasn't worth my time if a dump-free 
Emacs will be practical soon.

The project to get Emacs to work without dumping has run into problems, 
unfortunately. The currently-favored technical approach (see the 
scratch/raeburn-startup branch) isn't fully working and apparently will slow 
down Emacs startup significantly, which makes it hard to be enthusiastic about 
it. Progress has been slow: no changes have been installed since April 10, and 
the last message from Ken Raeburn, its principal hacker, was April 16 and began 
"This is probably going to make my brain hurt" 
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-04/msg00468.html>.

Daniel Colascione proposed an alternative approach in 
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-11/msg00625.html> but as he 
noted in <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-12/msg00861.html> 
it has some problems with weak hash tables and we haven't heard from Daniel 
since January, possibly because he was discouraged by Eli's negative reaction to 
this approach.

Darn. Thanks for the back-story.

From my POV, Ken's branch is just waiting a decision to be merged onto
master.  I'm not aware of any problems with its current state, but I
have no doubt that problems will start popping once we do merge it and
start using it seriously.  (Any other similar solution will most
probably bump into the same or very similar problems.)

Startup performance is the main problem that we were worried about for that 
approach, and Ken's most recent message on the topic said that startup 
performance remains a significant issue.

That's not a problem (as in "bug", which were fixed by Ken, at least
those that we know about).  This "problem" is a limitation of the
method, and I'm not sure the method implemented on the branch can be
significantly sped up, unless we completely rethink what Lisp we load
at startup and how.

This limitation is exactly the reason why we will soon have to decide
whether we merge the branch and start using it, improving what can be
improved and living with that which cannot, or keep using unexec at
least till Emacs 27.

... which is why I wrote "problem" and not "bug". Performance problems 
can be significant issues.

Of course this would not be the only performance problem in master. 
Still, it would make Emacs performance worse and as I understand it this 
is the main reason this approach has not been incorporated thus far.

Those are not the only two choices available to us.

No, the reason is that the decision has not yet been made.

Hoping to make some progress, I built src/temacs with the kludgey
patch mentioned above (to work around the gcc7/8 ICE)

  san='-fsanitize-address-use-after-scope -fsanitize=address
-static-libasan'; ./configure --without-gpm --without-x
--with-x-toolkit=no --with-png=no --with-jpeg=no --with-sound=no
CFLAGS="-O0 -ggdb3 $san" LDFLAGS="$san" && make

[note, that the build failed due to the aforementioned global buffer
overrun while dumping, but it did succeed in building src/temacs]
and tried to use it on a foo.gpg file like this:

  echo foo |gpg -c > foo.gpg
  src/temacs -q foo.gpg 2> err

which reported this stack buffer overrun:

I admit that I don't understand this report.  At the point where the
report claims there was buffer overflow, child_setup is not in the
call stack, because it is/was called in another process after vfork:
the callstack shows the stack of the Emacs process, whereas
child_setup is called by a child process.  So either the report shows
a stack of a wrong process, or something else is going on.  Or maybe I
simply don't understand how to read this report.

Thanks for looking.
I confess I have not done so. Does this caveat apply?

  HINT: this may be a false positive if your program uses some custom
  stack unwind mechanism or swapcontext

I don't think I understand this caveat, either.  Does "swapcontext"
include what happens after vfork?  IOW, is this tool known to follow
forks and track each of the 2 processes separately?

My own impression from a while ago is that the address sanitizer was not 
suitable for the class Emacs undumping, since its shadow memory won't 
survive dump-restore correctly. It sort of worked in some cases but it 
didn't work in general. I suppose it may be possible to work around the 
various issues, but as I recall it'd be a lot of trouble.

With the above, I thought I was avoiding the undumping issue by using temacs.

I've just run the test suite through ASan with an undumped emacs on macOS.
I got lots of dynamic-stack-buffer-overflow errors when using SAFE_ALLOCA,
which I can't explain; maybe that's indeed an ASan bug because alloca isn't
that widely used.
There's one actual bug: the sockaddr_in in line 3538 of process.c needs to
be sockaddr_storage, otherwise it's too small for IPv6. (And
conv_sockaddr_to_lisp should probably check that the address is of the
expected length and not blindly overwrite the len argument.)

Indeed, I believe the problem you reported is unrelated to unexec.

Please show the detailed analysis, as I looked into that once and
concluded that the code is correct.

The problem is here:

 struct sockaddr_in sa1;
 socklen_t len1 = sizeof (sa1);
 if (getsockname (s, (struct sockaddr *)&sa1, &len1) == 0)
   contact = Fplist_put (contact, QClocal,
 conv_sockaddr_to_lisp ((struct sockaddr *)&sa1, len1));

sockaddr_in is too small for IPv6 addresses, so getsockname doesn't fill it
out completely. But conv_sockaddr_to_lisp only looks at the address family
and attempts to read out the entire IPv6 address, reading past the sa1
variable memory. Thus this needs to be sockaddr_storage, which is
guaranteed to be large enough for all supported addresses.
Probably there should also be an eassert(len1 <= sizeof sa1) after the call
to getsockname, just to make sure.

Indeed, I believe you are right.

Thanks.

The first hunk doesn't seem to be necessary, though: in both IPv4 and
IPv6 structures, the port is at the same offset and has the same size.
So I'd rather put an assertion there, to verify that the offsets and
sizes are the same (because the standards don't guarantee that), and
that's all.

That isn't true for AF_UNIX addresses.

Can that happen at this point in the code?

But the original patch (and the original code) didn't handle that
case.

Aren't these two cases in reverse?  If it's AF_INET6, it's an in6
struct, not the other way around.

Not that it matters, since (as Eli said) the sizes of the first elements
in the structs are identical...

I guess I'm saying that I didn't understand your comment.

AFAIU, your comment says that when getsockname is called for AF_UNIX
sockets, it returns a structure that doesn't report a port, only a
file name.  The original code didn't handle this use case, so if your
intent was to say that this condition should be added to the code,
i.e. for AF_UNIX we should not try to compute the port, then I agree.

However, this is orthogonal to my suggestion, which only affected
AF_INET and AF_INET6 cases.  For those cases, the port is at the same
offset, and adding an assertion about that is IMO all that's needed.

I don't know whether we can rely on that (i.e. whether Posix guarantees it)
or whether it's an implementation detail.
(This also needs __attribute__((may_alias)), type punning, or memcpy due to
aliasing.)

I installed a modified version of Philipp's patch, to do that. Thanks, Philipp, 
for tracking this down.

Thanks! A few questions to guard against undefined behavior:
- Maybe add verify(INT_MAX >= TYPE_MAXIMUM(in_port_t)) and
verify(TYPE_MINIMUM(in_port_t) == 0) to make sure that we can use int for
the port?
- Should there be a guard against the alias violation, e.g. by declaring sa
and sa1 with __attribute__((may_alias))? Otherwise it's UB and the compiler
might elide the switch entirely.

You're right, I didn't read Jim's message carefully enough. I see that 
the AddressSanitizer code suffered some bitrot since I last got it 
working; among other things its output was being discarded on Fedora 25 
x86-64, which at first gave me a false sense of security.... I installed 
the attached patches to work around the GCC problem that Jim reported, 
the improper output discard, and one minor memory leak uncovered by 
AddressSanitizer.  When I run Emacs with AddressSanitizer now, it 
reports some other minor memory leaks, almost all from the fontconfig 
library. I do not observe any problems with SAFE_ALLOCA.

Thanks.  But isn't it strange that none of the changes you made is
related to starting a sub-process, which was where the original report
came from?

Although Jim's original report mentioned process.c, the referenced code 
was in server_accept_connection (not starting a sub-process), and that 
code was indeed affected by one of the recent changes I made (commit 
be9e60fc3c43cc49cc5d749924c3e96737ae297c).

Jim's original report mainly focused on a buffer overflow in dumping. 
That part has never worked with AddressSanitizer; one must configure 
with CANNOT_DUMP=yes to use AddressSanitizer.

I wonder why you ignored what I said here:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-05/msg00361.html

If you disagree, I'd expect you to say so and try to convince, not to
go ahead and commit the code.

I think we might be talking about 2 different reports.  I meant the
one here:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-05/msg00246.html

The reproducing recipe given there by Jim was this:

  echo foo |gpg -c > foo.gpg
  src/temacs -q foo.gpg 2> err

and I guessed that visiting foo.gpg starts gpg as a subprocess.  The
backtrace posted by Jim, viz.:

  ==24522==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: stack-buffer-overflow on address

seems to confirm my guess.  Did I miss something?

Ah, that came after his original report 
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-05/msg00182.html>, 
which is the one I was referring to. I reproduced the later problem, and 
as near as I can make it out it is due to an incompatibility between 
vfork and -fsanitize=address. My guess is that the vforked child 
corrupts the parent's shadow memory. I worked around the problem by 
installing the attached patch into Emacs.

Unfortunately with the AddressSanitizer in Fedora 25 x86-64, the
vforked child messes up the parent’s shadow memory.  This is too
bad, as we’d rather have AddressSanitizer catch memory-access bugs
related to vfork.

I had forgotten about that comment. And it took such an odd approach 
("Oh, let's refuse to run on any implementation that has an unusual 
struct sockaddr layout, even though it's easy to write portable code 
that works well") that it shouldn't be surprising that I forgot about 
it. However, you evidently prefer the odd approach so we'll try things 
your way.

The code has been changed so that the port number is no longer stored in 
an int so this remark is obsolete now. However, if this issue crops up 
later I don't think we need to worry about it for IPv4 and IPv6 ports, 
since they're always in the range 0..65535. Emacs already assumes that 
'int' is at least 32 bits wide, as per POSIX.

Yes, that is easy enough to do and would avoid some unlikely but 
hard-to-catch bugs. I installed the attached. Most likely other parts of 
Emacs should use may_alias too; do you happen to have any tool in your 
toolbox that would find them systematically?

Yes, that makes sense, given the details in the reports, which indeed
hinted on such an incompatibility.

Thanks.

Yes, these static assertions are more for documenting the assumptions that
the code makes in a way that actually checks the assumptions.

A type-based aliasing sanitizer is currently being added to Clang. Once
that is landed I'll run it over the Emacs codebase.
