There's no address-sanitizer support for MIPS (in particular for
O32) on trunk, at least not when building for
mipsisa32r2el-linux-gnu and libsanitizer/configure.tgt seems
to support that observation. There's a set of patches "floating
around", but the last sign of work-in-progress was more than
four years ago, according to a well-known search engine.
Is there something holding it up getting it into trunk gcc?
Is it just that someone needs to go the last mile?
I can do that. I can even go two miles! Maybe even a merge
from compiler-rt and MIPS port hacking (to be merged post
gcc-8-branch to trunk, I presume).
I'm a little worried that the "patches floating around" have
unclear copyright status, so I haven't looked at them yet. I'd
rather not re-do MIPS ASAN on the gcc-side from scratch, but if
it comes to that, so be it.
