Hi Patrice,
I believe you handle the CEA tests that get run automatically when we
submit ganesha patches for review? We've seen some crashes recently with
what look like malloc arena corruption. This one, for instance:
https://review.gerrithub.io/c/ffilz/nfs-ganesha/+/426925
Would it be possible to enable libasan for these builds? ASAN would help
us get a good handle on what's happening there. There is a small
performance penalty in using it, but it would help us collect useful
info when ganesha crashes with memory issues. I think that's probably
worth it for this sort of testing.
If it sounds ok to you, it should be pretty simple. To do it, you just
need to make sure that libasan is installed on the machine, and then
pass -DSANITIZE_ADDRESS=ON to the cmake command. libasan will also need
to be installed on the host where the daemon runs as well.
Thanks!
