AddressSanitizer (ASan) is a google memory error detect
standard tool. It could help to detect use-after-free and
{heap,stack,global}-buffer overflow bugs in C/C++ programs,
print detailed error information when error happens, large
improve debug efficiency.

By referring to its implementation algorithm
(https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerAlgorithm),
enable heap-buffer-overflow and use-after-free functions on dpdk.
DPDK ASAN function currently only supports on Linux x86_64.

Here is an example of heap-buffer-overflow bug:
        ......
        char *p = rte_zmalloc(NULL, 7, 0);
        p[7] = 'a';
        ......

Here is an example of use-after-free bug:
        ......
        char *p = rte_zmalloc(NULL, 7, 0);
        rte_free(p);
        *p = 'a';
        ......

If you want to use this feature,
you need to add below compilation options when compiling code:
-Dbuildtype=debug -Db_lundef=false -Db_sanitize=address
"-Dbuildtype=debug": Display code information when coredump occurs
in the program.
"-Db_lundef=false": It is enabled by default, and needs to be
disabled when using asan.

- The title is too vague.
I am not sure what the best title is, but my current idea is:
mem: instrument allocator with ASan


- This is a nice feature that must be announced in the release notes.


- How should we spell it?
Asan ?
ASAN ?
ASan ?

Please update devtools/words-case.txt and fix inconsistencies in this patch.

If you don't intend to update other arches, at least explain in the
commitlog what should be done: so that other arches know what to do to
add support.

ASAN is triggered by -Db_sanitize=address, it is the only *needed* option afaiu.

In ASan context, there is no coredump.
ASan displays a backtrace which is easier to read when debug symbols
are available.
You can suggest building with debug, but this is *not needed*.

This is an issue with meson and clang.
Tweaking b_lundef is needed with clang, gcc looks fine.
But still, on RHEL with gcc, I need to install libasan.

Maybe we can add libasan at a requirement at project level, did you try it?

This change on pipeline has no explanation, and looks out of place wrt
to current change.

I can't understand what the "wild pointer" means in this context.
This comment belongs to the traces in the section before.

See my previous comment on b_lundef.

Yes, this is annoying when executing failing unit tests.
That is something to handle better in the cmdline library, maybe in the future.

Like "wild pointer", I don't think this comment belongs here.

Use ASan, google's spelling:

Dbuildtype and Db_lundef will update the instructions.

libasan is installed by default on the ubuntu system. Because libasan
and the compiler are matched, so it is best to manually install the
matching library.

This is because we only set up the red zone and did not construct the
complete data structure required by libasan. As a result, libasan could
not find the location of the memory request, so "wild pointer" was
reported. The current information has been able to troubleshoot errors,
so this issue is a lower priority.

cmdline cannot solve this problem temporarily, so this problem must
be explained, but I don’t know which position is better.

I think the description is a little to wordy and unnecessarily redundant 
(pun intended!) in places. Suggested rewording:

`AddressSanitizer 
<https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizer>` (ASan) is 
a widely-used debugging tool to detect memory access errors. It helps 
detect issues like use-after-free, various kinds of buffer overruns in 
C/C++ programs, and other similar errors, as well as printing out 
detailed debug information whenever an error is detected.

DPDK ASan functionality is currently only supported Linux x86_64.

I think all of the terms used here should be properly capitalized, e.g. 
"ASan" instead of "asan", "DPDK" instead of "dpdk", etc.

Also, i don't quite follow the 'a)' section - what exactly is a wild 
pointer? What makes a pointer 'wild', and why do we care? If the point 
is that DPDK's ASan implementation does not support all ASan features, 
then maybe this could be worded better, e.g. like so:

a) Some of the features of ASan (for example, 'wild pointers') are not 
currently supported by DPDK's implementation

This doesn't look like it's changing anything - maybe drop this 
particular hun from the patch?

Maybe make it more pointer-safe, like so?

#define ASAN_MEM_SHIFT(mem) ((void*)((uintptr_t)mem >> 3))
#define ASAN_BASE_ADDR 0x00007fff8000
#define ASAN_MEM_TO_SHADOW(mem) RTE_PTR_ADD(ASAN_MEM_SHIFT(mem), 
ASAN_BASE_ADDR)

We could even add a new rte_common.h macros for RTE_PTR_LSHIFT/RSHIFT. 
The advantage of this suggestion is that you won't need to make so many 
typecasts any more.

How about

	shadow = ASAN_MEM_TO_SHADOW(RTE_PTR_ADD(ptr, offset));

? The 'shadow' variable can be void*, so you can drop the cast here too.

I think DPDK code style is to declare all variables at the beginning of 
the block.

It seems to me that the code can be rewritten to be more understandable. 
For example, you could opt for more meaningful variable names and not 
reuse 'ptr' for everything. Ex.:

	elem_start = RTE_PTR_ADD(elem, MALLOC_ELEM_HEADER_LEN);
	start_ptr = RTE_PTR_SUB(elem_start, ASAN_SHADOW_GRAIN_SIZE);
	start_shadow = ASAN_MEM_TO_SHADOW(start_ptr);
	// just following your code here, but why are we doing it twice?
	start_redzone = RTE_PTR_SUB(start_shadow, ASAN_SHADOW_GRAIN_SIZE);

	asan_set_shadow(start_shadow, ASAN_MEM_REDZONE_FLAG);
	asan_set_shadow(start_redzone, ASAN_MEM_REDZONE_FLAG);

	...

And similar for the rest of the code: more meaningful variable names, 
more intermediate variables, less raw bit/ptr manipulation please :)

It seems to me that you're repeating a lot of code here that you already 
have in `asan_set_redzone()` - maybe factor common bits out into a 
function? For example,

static inlind void ptr_set_shadow(void *ptr, int shadow_flags) {
	startptr = RTE_PTR_SUB(ptr, ASAN_SHADOW_GRAIN_SIZE);
	shadow = ASAN_MEM_TO_SHADOW(startptr);
	asan_set_shadow(shadow, shadow_flags);
	shadow = RTE_PTR_SUB(shadow, ASAN_SHADOW_GRAIN_SIZE);
	asan_set_shadow(shadow, shadow_flags);
}

...

and then call this from wherever you like? Because this pattern seems to 
be repeating everywhere, the only difference being the ptr value and the 
set_shadow flags.

The variable names have been modified to make the code clearer.
Extracting public functions is not particularly useful, and
this is a logical implementation, not general code.

+Memory error detect standard tool - AddressSanitizer(Asan)
+==========================================================
+
+AddressSanitizer (ASan) is a google memory error detect
+standard tool. It could help to detect use-after-free and
+{heap,stack,global}-buffer overflow bugs in C/C++ programs,
+print detailed error information when error happens, large
+improve debug efficiency.
+
+By referring to its implementation algorithm
+(https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerAlgorithm),
+enabled heap-buffer-overflow and use-after-free functions on dpdk.
+DPDK ASAN function currently only supports on Linux x86_64.
+
+AddressSanitizer is a part of LLVM(3.1+)and GCC(4.8+).
+
+Example heap-buffer-overflow error
+----------------------------------
+
+Following error was reported when Asan was enabled::
+
+    Applied 9 bytes of memory, but accessed the 10th byte of memory,
+    so heap-buffer-overflow appeared.
+
+Below code results in this error::
+
+    char *p = rte_zmalloc(NULL, 9, 0);
+    if (!p) {
+        printf("rte_zmalloc error.");
+        return -1;
+    }
+    p[9] = 'a';
+
+The error log::

+Example use-after-free error
+----------------------------
+
+Following error was reported when Asan was enabled::
+
+    Applied for 9 bytes of memory, and accessed the first byte after
+    released, so heap-use-after-free appeared.
+
+Below code results in this error::
+
+    char *p = rte_zmalloc(NULL, 9, 0);
+    if (!p) {
+        printf("rte_zmalloc error.");
+        return -1;
+    }
+    rte_free(p);
+    *p = 'a';
+

+Usage
+-----
+
+meson build
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+To enable Asan in meson build system, use following meson build command:
+
+Example usage::
+
+ meson build -Dbuildtype=debug -Db_lundef=false -Db_sanitize=address
+ ninja -C build
+
+.. Note::
+
+  a) The issue of asan wild pointer is that dpdk asan tool is not fully adapted to google asan.
+     For example: Address 0x7fe2ffafa240 is a wild pointer.
+  b) Centos8 needs to install libasan separately.
+  c) If the program uses cmdline, when a memory bug occurs, need to execute the "stty echo" command.
