test-lib: add "fast_unwind_on_malloc=0" to LSAN_OPTIONS
Add "fast_unwind_on_malloc=0" to LSAN_OPTIONS to get more meaningful stack traces from LSAN. This isn't required under ASAN which will emit traces such as this one for a leak in "t/t0006-date.sh": $ ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=1 ./t0006-date.sh -vixd [...] Direct leak of 3 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x488b94 in strdup (t/helper/test-tool+0x488b94) #1 0x9444a4 in xstrdup wrapper.c:29:14 #2 0x5995fa in parse_date_format date.c:991:24 #3 0x4d2056 in show_dates t/helper/test-date.c:39:2 #4 0x4d174a in cmd__date t/helper/test-date.c:116:3 #5 0x4cce89 in cmd_main t/helper/test-tool.c:127:11 #6 0x4cd1e3 in main common-main.c:52:11 #7 0x7fef3c695e49 in __libc_start_main csu/../csu/libc-start.c:314:16 #8 0x422b09 in _start (t/helper/test-tool+0x422b09) SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 3 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s). Aborted Whereas LSAN would emit this instead: $ ./t0006-date.sh -vixd [...] Direct leak of 3 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x4323b8 in malloc (t/helper/test-tool+0x4323b8) #1 0x7f2be1d614aa in strdup string/strdup.c:42:15 SUMMARY: LeakSanitizer: 3 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s). Aborted Now we'll instead git this sensible stack trace under LSAN. I.e. almost the same one (but starting with "malloc", as is usual for LSAN) as under ASAN: Direct leak of 3 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x4323b8 in malloc (t/helper/test-tool+0x4323b8) #1 0x7f012af5c4aa in strdup string/strdup.c:42:15 #2 0x5cb164 in xstrdup wrapper.c:29:14 #3 0x495ee9 in parse_date_format date.c:991:24 #4 0x453aac in show_dates t/helper/test-date.c:39:2 #5 0x453782 in cmd__date t/helper/test-date.c:116:3 #6 0x451d95 in cmd_main t/helper/test-tool.c:127:11 #7 0x451f1e in main common-main.c:52:11 #8 0x7f012aef5e49 in __libc_start_main csu/../csu/libc-start.c:314:16 #9 0x42e0a9 in _start (t/helper/test-tool+0x42e0a9) SUMMARY: LeakSanitizer: 3 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s). Aborted As the option name suggests this does make things slower, e.g. for t0001-init.sh we're around 10% slower: $ hyperfine -L v 0,1 'LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc={v} make T=t0001-init.sh' -r 3 Benchmark 1: LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=0 make T=t0001-init.sh Time (mean ± σ): 2.135 s ± 0.015 s [User: 1.951 s, System: 0.554 s] Range (min … max): 2.122 s … 2.152 s 3 runs Benchmark 2: LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=1 make T=t0001-init.sh Time (mean ± σ): 1.981 s ± 0.055 s [User: 1.769 s, System: 0.488 s] Range (min … max): 1.941 s … 2.044 s 3 runs Summary 'LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=1 make T=t0001-init.sh' ran 1.08 ± 0.03 times faster than 'LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=0 make T=t0001-init.sh' I think that's more than worth it to get the more meaningful stack traces, we can always provide LSAN_OPTIONS=fast_unwind_on_malloc=0 for one-off "fast" runs.
