Hello,
I am using the swapcontext family to implement user-level threading.
Specifically, only getcontext(), setcontext(), and makecontext() are
used, during thread creation and teardown. Beyond the initial switch
into a thread, I use setjmp()/longjmp() as they are significantly faster.
This works well, except that in combination with Address Sanitizer I
stack-buffer-overflow errors accessing variables on a user-level-thread
stack, which, as far as I can tell, are false positives.
See for example https://github.com/scylladb/scylla/issues/533.
Is there any workaround for this? I am willing to write an alternate
code path for debugging. What would work here? sigaltstack()?
