From 370ef7e40df684f9b7314c8ca54892f4513eb903 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Mon, 28 Aug 2023 14:37:35 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] test-lib: ignore uninteresting LSan output When I run the tests in leak-checking mode the same way our CI job does, like: make SANITIZE=leak \ GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true \ GIT_TEST_SANITIZE_LEAK_LOG=true \ test then LSan can racily produce useless entries in the log files that look like this: ==git==3034393==Unable to get registers from thread 3034307. I think they're mostly harmless based on the source here: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/7e0a52e8e9ef6394bb62e0b56e17fa23e7262411/compiler-rt/lib/lsan/lsan_common.cpp#L414 which reads: PtraceRegistersStatus have_registers = suspended_threads.GetRegistersAndSP(i, ®isters, &sp); if (have_registers != REGISTERS_AVAILABLE) { Report("Unable to get registers from thread %llu.\n", os_id); // If unable to get SP, consider the entire stack to be reachable unless // GetRegistersAndSP failed with ESRCH. if (have_registers == REGISTERS_UNAVAILABLE_FATAL) continue; sp = stack_begin; } The program itself still runs fine and LSan doesn't cause us to abort. But test-lib.sh looks for any non-empty LSan logs and marks the test as a failure anyway, under the assumption that we simply missed the failing exit code somehow. I don't think I've ever seen this happen in the CI job, but running locally using clang-14 on an 8-core machine, I can't seem to make it through a full run of the test suite without having at least one failure. And it's a different one every time (though they do seem to often be related to packing tests, which makes sense, since that is one of our biggest users of threaded code). We can hack around this by only counting LSan log files that contain a line that doesn't match our known-uninteresting pattern.
