[PATCH v2] Update 'make fuzz-all' docs to reflect modern clang

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Andrzej Hunt <ajrhunt@xxxxxxxxxx>

Clang no longer produces a libFuzzer.a, instead you can include
libFuzzer by using -fsanitize=fuzzer. Therefore we should use
that in the example command for building fuzzers.

We also add -fsanitize=fuzzer-no-link to ensure that all the required
instrumentation is added when compiling git [1], and remove
 -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard as it is deprecated.

I happen to have tested with LLVM 11 - however -fsanitize=fuzzer appears to
work in a wide range of reasonably modern clangs.

(On my system: what used to be libFuzzer.a now lives under the following path,
 which is tricky albeit not impossible for a novice such as myself to find:
/usr/lib64/clang/11.0.0/lib/linux/libclang_rt.fuzzer-x86_64.a )

     * Remove -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard as it is deprecated.
     * Add -fsanitize=fuzzer-no-link as per Josh's suggestion.
