Available flags for AddressSanitizer

• quarantine_size

• Deprecated, please use quarantine_size_mb.

• thread_local_quarantine_size_kb

• Size (in Kb) of thread local quarantine used to detect use-after-free errors. Lower value may reduce memory usage but increase the chance of false negatives. It is not advised to go lower than 64Kb, otherwise frequent transfers to global quarantine might affect performance.

• max_redzone

• Maximal size (in bytes) of redzones around heap objects.

• debug

• If set, prints some debugging information and does additional checks.

• report_globals

• Controls the way to handle globals (0 - don't detect buffer overflow on globals, 1 - detect buffer overflow, 2 - print data about registered globals).

• strict_init_order

• If true, assume that dynamic initializers can never access globals from other modules, even if the latter are already initialized.

• start_deactivated
