MATLAB can only work with GCC6.3.0 ( https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/407502-incompatible-gcc-version-with-mex), so I hope to get this working, if possible. I applied the changes to file sanitizer_platform_limits_posix.cc as per the patch, and now the error is: In file included from /home/mohana/gccbuild/../gcc-6.3.0/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_platform_limits_posix.cc:192:0: /home/mohana/gccbuild/../gcc-6.3.0/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_internal_defs.h:254:72: error: size of array ‘assertion_failed__1142’ is negative typedef char IMPL_PASTE(assertion_failed_##_, line)[2*(int)(pred)-1] ^ /home/mohana/gccbuild/../gcc-6.3.0/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_internal_defs.h:248:30: note: in expansion of macro ‘IMPL_COMPILER_ASSERT’ #define COMPILER_CHECK(pred) IMPL_COMPILER_ASSERT(pred, __LINE__) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /home/mohana/gccbuild/../gcc-6.3.0/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_platform_limits_posix.h:1410:3: note: in expansion of macro ‘COMPILER_CHECK’ COMPILER_CHECK(sizeof(((__sanitizer_##CLASS *) NULL)->MEMBER) == \ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /home/mohana/gccbuild/../gcc-6.3.0/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_platform_limits_posix.cc:1142:1: note: in expansion of macro ‘CHECK_SIZE_AND_OFFSET’ CHECK_SIZE_AND_OFFSET(ipc_perm, mode); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ make[4]: *** [Makefile:477: sanitizer_platform_limits_posix.lo] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory '/home/mohana/gccbuild/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/libsanitizer/sanitizer_common' libtool: link: (cd ".libs" && rm -f "libatomic.so" && ln -s "libatomic.so.1.2.0" "libatomic.so") make[3]: *** [Makefile:466: all-recursive] Error 1 I hope I applied the patch correctly, just removed the lines with (-) and added ones with (+).
