Summary:
When applying function summaries, we are careful not to violate the
summary's assumptions about non-aliasing. For example, the summary we
generate for `foo(x,y) { *x = *y; }` will have `x` and `y` be allocated
to two different `AbstractValue.t` in the heap, representing
disjointness.
However, the current logic is too coarse and also rejects passing the
same pure value to functions that made no assumption about them being
equal or different, eg `goo(int x,int y) { int z = x + y; }`. This is
because the corresponding `AbstractValue.t` are different in the
callee's summary, but are represented by only one same value in callers
such as `goo(i,i)`.
This diff restricts the "don't violate aliasing" condition to only
consider heap-allocated values. This is consistent with separation logic
by the way: we use the implication `x|->- * y|->- |- x≠y`, which is
valid only when both `x` and `y` are both allocated in the heap as in
the left-hand-side of `|-`.

Summary: Lambda is called using `operator()`. We need to know the information of captured variables when `operator()` procedure is being analysed. This diff records lambda captured variables in `operator()` procdesc. The complication arises from the fact that procdesc for `operator()` is created before translating lambda expression or during the translation of lambda expression where captured variables are translated. To solve this issue, we update existing `operator()` procdesc attributes with captured variable information when we translate lambda expression.

Summary:
Replace horrible hack with ok hack.
The main difficulty in implementing the disjunctive domain is to avoid
the quadratic time complexity of executing the same disjuncts over and
over again when going around loops:
First time around a loop, assuming for example a single disjunct `d`:
```
[d]
loop body
[d1' \/ d2']
```
Second time around the same loop: the new pre will be the join of the
posts of predecessor nodes, so `old_pre \/ post(loop,old_pre)`, i.e.
`d \/ d1' \/ d2'`. Now we need to execute `loop body` again
*without running the symbolic execution of `d` again* (and the time after
that we'll want to not execute `d`, `d1'`, or `d2'`).
Horrible hack (before): Disjuncts have a boolean "visited" attached
that does its best to keep track of whether a given disjunct is old or
new. When executing a single *instruction* look at the flag and skip the
state if it's old. Of course we have no way to know for sure so it turns
out it was often wrongly re-executing old disjuncts. This was also
producing the wrong results over even simple loops: only the last
iteration would make it outside the loop for some reason. Overall, the
semantics were pretty untractable and shady at best.
New hack (this diff): only run instructions of a given *node* on
disjuncts that are not physically equal to the "pre" ones already in the
invariant map for the current node.
This gives the correct result over simple loops and a nice performance
improvement in general (probably the old heuristic was hitting the
quadratic bad case more often).

Summary:
We translated the expression `CXXStdInitializerListExpr` naively in D3058895 as a call to
a skip function, with the hope that it would be translated better in the future. However, the naive means that we lose access to the initialized list/array because we are simply skipping it. So, even if we want to model the initializer properly, we have to deal with the skip specially.
This diff tries to solve this problem by removing the skip call whenever
possible. Instead, we translate the underlying array/list as a Load, so
that when it is passed to the constructor, we can pick it up.
For the following initialization:
``` std::vector<int*> vec = {nullptr};
```
Before, we translated it as
```
*&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7[0]:int* const =null
n$8=_fun___infer_skip_function(&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7:int* const [1*8] const )
n$9=_fun_std::vector<int*,std::allocator<int*>>::vector(&vec:std::vector<int*,std::allocator<int*>>*,n$8:std::initializer_list<int*>)
```
However, this means, `n$8` would be result of something skipped which we can't reason about. Instead, we just pass the underlying initialized array now, so we get the following translation:
```
*&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7[0]:int* const =null
n$8=*&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7:int* const [1*8] const

Summary:
When encountering a constant, pulse creates an abstract value (a
variable) to represent it, and remembers that it's equal to it. The
problem is that pulse doesn't yet know how to deal with the fact that
some variables are going to be equal to each other.
This hacks around this issue in the case of constants, within the same
procedure, by remembering which constants have been assigned to which
place-holder variables, and serving those variables again when the same
constant is translated again.
Limitation: this doesn't work across procedure calls as the "constant
maps" are not saved in summaries.
Something to look out for: we don't want to make `if (p == NULL)` create
a path where `p` is invalid (we only make null invalid when we see an
assignment from 0, i.e. `p = NULL;`).

* redesign the abstract of multiple locations, like `Bottom` < `Unknown` < `Known` locations
I am doing them in one diff since applying only one of them showed bad results.
Background: `Unknown` was adopted for abstracting all unknown concrete locations, so we could avoid missing semantics of assignments to unknown locations. We tried to keep soundness. However, it brought some other problems related to precision and performance.
1. Sometimes especially when Inferbo failed to reason precise pointer values, `Unknown` may point to many other abstract locations.
2. At that time, value assignments to `*Unknown` makes the situation worse: many abstract locations are updated with imprecise values.
This problem harmed not only its precision, but also its performance since it introduced more location entries in the abstract memory.

Summary:
As soon as pulse detects an error, it completely stops the analysis and loses the state where the error occurred. This makes it difficult to debug and understand the state the program failed. Moreover, other analyses that might build on pulse (e.g. impurity), cannot access the error state.
This diff aims to restore and display the state at the time of the error in `PulseExecutionState` along with the diagnostic by extending it as follows:
```
type exec_state =
| represents the state at the program point that caused an error *)
```
As a result, since we don't immediately stop the analysis as soon as we find an error, we detect both errors in conditional branches simultaneously (see test result changes for examples).
NOTE: We need to extend `PulseOperations.access_result` to keep track of the failed state as follows:

This diff lifts the `PulseAbductiveDomain.t` in `PulseExecutionState` by tracking whether the program continues the analysis normally or exits unusually (e.g. by calling `exit` or `throw`):
```
type exec_state =
| ContinueProgram of PulseAbductiveDomain.t (** represents the state at the program point *)
| ExitProgram of PulseAbductiveDomain.t
(** represents the state originating at exit/divergence. *)
```
Now, Pulse's actual domain is tracked by `PulseExecutionState` and as soon as we try to analyze an instruction at `ExitProgram`, we simply return its state.
The aim is to recover the state at the time of the exit, rather than simply ignoring them (i.e. returning empty disjuncts). This allows us to get rid of some FNs that we were not able to detect before. Moreover, it also allows the impurity analysis to be more precise since we will know how the state changed up to exit.
TODO:
- Impurity analysis needs to be improved to consider functions that simply exit as impure.
- The next goal is to handle error state similarly so that when pulse finds an error, we recover the state at the error location (and potentially continue to analyze?).
Disclaimer: currently, we handle throw statements like exit (as was the case before). However, this is not correct. Ideally, control flow from throw nodes follows catch nodes rather than exiting the program entirely.

For instance, for the following functions
```
public static boolean is_null(Byte a) {

WrittenTo-----------WRONG },
v4 -> { Arith =1,
BoItv (1),
Invalid ConstantDereference(is the constant 1),
WrittenTo-----------WRONG },
v8 -> { WrittenTo } };}
SKIPPED_CALLS: { }

where we mistakenly recorded a `WrittenTo` for `v2` (what `a` points to). As a result, we considered `call_is_null` as impure :( This diff fixes that since the callee `is_null` doesn't have any `WrittenTo` attributes for its parameter `a`. So, we don't propagate `WrittenTo` and get the following summary
```

Summary:
The goals are:
- Increase precision in C-languages by ditching access paths.
- Help with eventually sharing the abstract address module with RacerD.
- Reports are now language-mode specific (eg `->` in clang vs `.` in Java).
It's not exactly access expressions used here. Instead the pattern `(base, access list)` is used where `access` is `HilExp.Access.t`. This is done to ease the way `deriving` is used for creating two comparison functions, one that cares about the root variable and one that doesn't; and also because the main function that recurses over accesses (`normalise_access_list`) visits the accesses from innermost to outermost.
Also, kill some dead code.

Summary:
To emulate the `ThreadSafe` contract in C++/ObjC, reporting was gated behind a check that ensured a C++/ObjC class has a `std::mutex` member (plus other filters). This is reasonable, but it has some drawbacks
- other locks may be used, and therefore must be added to the member check;
- locking mechanisms that use the object itself as a monitor cannot be modelled (`synchronized` in ObjC)
RacerD already has `ThreadsDomain` which models our guess on whether a method is expected to run in a concurrent context, and which in C++/ObjC boils down to whether the method non-transitively acquires a lock. This should be a good enough indicator that the class should be checked regardless of whether the locks are member fields. This diff gates the C++/ObjC check on that abstract property.

If a race exists in two or more overloads of the same method and we use only the class and method name in the report text, then the current bug hashing algorithm will identify the two reports as duplicates.
To avoid this, the report had the class, method and list of type parameters. This is unreadable, however, and redundant (the report is already located within the method in question). So at the risk of duplicates, use only class+method names.
Also, fix a bug in `Procname.pp_simplified ~withclass` where `withclass` was ignored for C++/ObjC methods.

Currently, impurity analysis is oblivious to skipped functions which might e.g. return a non-deterministic value, write to memory or have some other side-effect.

Summary:
The `Typ.FIeldname` module has many issues. Among those:
- It has 5 different string/printing functions and most of them do radically different things in Java and in Clang.
- There is no type safety: creating a Clang field and calling a Java function on it will lead to a crash (`rindex_exn` etc, there are usually no dots in Clang fields).
- It uses a single string for Java fields, containing the package, the class and the field, e.g., `java.lang.Object.field`. This is wasteful, because
- there is no sharing of strings for packages/classes, and,
- string operations need to be performed every time we need the field or the class or the package alone.
This diff preserves the behaviour of the module's interface, so the API problems remain.
However, by using a saner representation for Java fields we can get small performance and large memory gains (the type environment in Java is much smaller, about 30-40%).
In addition, many functions on clang fields would previously do string manipulations (look for `.` and split on it) before returning the final field unchanged -- now they use the type of the field for that.

- When substituting arithmetic constraints, we refine arithmetic information (both concrete intervals and inferbo), which can lead to inconsistent states. Instead of recording the new arithmetic facts by returning a new current state, just act as a map on attributes. This is to enable doing the point above.
- All this lead to a somewhat messy refactoring...

This also prints the CFGs *after* pre-analysis for individual procedures

CFGs before pre-analysis in infer-out/captured/proc_cfgs_frontend.dot.
Context: I want to add a pre-analysis that needs to look at proc
attributes inter-procedurally. For this to make sense it has to happen
*after* all of capture, and before analysis.
Thus, this diff brings back the lazy running of the pre-analysis like in
D15803492, except that we still make sure to run the pre-analyses
systematically regardless of the checkers being run by running the
pre-analysis from ondemand.ml. Also we don't need to re-introduce the
"did_preanalysis" proc attribute for the same reason that the
pre-analysis is now run once and for all by ondemand.ml (instead of each
individual checker back in the days).
This has the benefit of running the pre-analysis only when needed, and
the drawback that several concurrent processes analysing the same proc
descs will duplicate work. Since pre-analyses are supposed to be very
fast I assume that neither is a big deal. If they become more expensive
then the benefit gets bigger and the drawback is just the same as with
regular analyses.

doesn't need to be reviewed thoroughly because an upcoming diff
changes the domain from just `EqualTo of Const.t` to an interval domain!
2. When going through a prune node intra-procedurally, abduce arithmetic
facts to the pre (instead of just propagating them). This is the "assume
as assert" trick used by biabduction 1.0 too and allows to propagate
arithmetic constraints to callers.
3. Use 2 when applying summaries by pruning specs whose preconditions
have un-satisfiable arithmetic constraints.
This changes one of the tests! Pulse now does a bit more work to find
the false positive, as can be seen in the longer trace.

Previously, we considered a function which modifies its parameters to be impure even though it might not be modifying the underlying value. This resulted in FPs like the following program in Java:
```
void fresh_pure(int[] a) {
a = new int[1];
}
```
Similarly, in C++, we considered the following program as impure because it was writing to `s`:
```
Simple* reassign_pure(Simple* s) {
s = new Simple{2};
return s;
}
```
This diff fixes that issue by starting the check for address equivalnce in pre-post not directly from the addresses of the stack variables, but from the addresses pointed to by these stack variables. That means, we only consider things to be impure if the actual values pointed by the parameters change.

Summary:
bigmacro_bender
There are 3 ways pulse tracks history. This is at least one too many. So
far, we have:
1. "histories": a humble list of "events" like "assigned here", "returned from call", ...
2. "interproc actions": a structured nesting of calls with a final "action", eg "f calls g calls h which does blah"
3. "traces", which combine one history with one interproc action
This diff gets rid of interproc actions and makes histories include
"nested" callee histories too. This allows pulse to track and display
how a value got assigned across function calls.
Traces are now more powerful and interleave histories and interproc
actions. This allows pulse to track how a value is fed into an action,
for instance performed in callee, which itself creates some more
(potentially now interprocedural) history before going to the next step
of the action (either another call or the action itself).
This gives much better traces, and some examples are added to showcase
this.
There are a lot of changes when applying summaries to keep track of
histories more accurately than was done before, but also a few
simplifications that give additional evidence that this is the right
concept.
