Summary:
Simpler bug hash that is more independent of the underlying analysis. This now computes the hash based on:
- the bug type.
- the base filename: i.e for my/source/File.java, just keep File.java. So the hash will not change when moving files around.
- the simple method name: i.e. without package information and list of parameters. So changing the list of parameters will not affect the bug hash.
- the error message were the line numbers have been removed. So moving code or reformatting will not affect the hash.

Summary:
As da319 points out, we did not handle this case correctly before. There were a few reasons why:
(1) An assignment like `struct S s = mk_s()` gets translated as `tmp = mk_s(); S(&s, tmp)`, so we didn't see the write to `s`.
(2) We counted uses of variables in destructors and dummy `_ = *s` assignments as reads, which meant that any struct values were considered as live.
This diff fixes these limitations so we can report on dead stores of struct values.

Summary:
This resolves#796 . Effectively it adds file specific suffix to name of all global initializers (so initializersof two global variable of the same name will have unique Typ.Procname). which is the same rule as currently used by constructing Procname for the static functions. However this change applies to initializers of all global variables and not just static (arguably it's a right thing. since GCC used to allow multiple global variables with the same name).
Consequences of this change that it becomes impossible to know name of generated initialization function of global ('extern') variables. However get_initializer_pname function is only referenced by the frontend (when creating initializer for the defined global variables) and by the SIOF checker.

int A::foo = 12;
int f() { return A::foo; // should see A::foo as defined in this translation unit
$ cat bar.cpp
#include "foo.h"
void g() { return A::foo; // should see A::foo defined externally
```
Previously, both foo.cpp and bar.cpp would see `A::foo` as defined within their
translation unit, because it comes from the header. This is wrong, and static
data members should be treated as extern unless they're defined in the same
file.
This doesn't change much except for frontend tests. SIOF FP fix in the next diff.

Summary:
The previous domain for SIOF was duplicating some work with the generic Trace
domain, and basically was a bit confused and confusing. A sink was a set of
global accesses, and a state contains a set of sinks. Then the checker has to
needlessly jump through hoops to normalize this set of sets of accesses into a
set of accesses.
The new domain has one sink = one access, as suggested by sblackshear. This simplifies
a few things, and makes the dedup logic much easier: just grab the first report
of the list of reports for a function.
We only report on the fake procedures generated to initialise a global, and the
filtering means that we keep only one report per global.

Destructor wrapper is called from outside, i.e., when variables go out of scope or when destructors of fields are being called.
Destructor wrappers have calls to inner destructors of all virtual base classes in the inheritance as their bodies.
Inner destructors have destructor bodies and calls to destructor wrappers of fields and inner destructors of non-virtual base classes.

```
Replacing `std::tuple<std::tuple<int>>` by `std::tuple<int>` makes the analysis
terminate.
In the AST, both tuple<tuple<int>> and tuple<int> have the same template
specialization type: "Pack" (which means we're supposed to go look into the
arguments of the template to get their values). This is not information enough
and that's the plugin fault.
On the backend side, this means that two types have the same Typ.Name.t, namely
"std::tuple<_>", so they collide in the tenv. The definition of
tuple<tuple<int>> is the one making it into the tenv. One of the fields of the
corresponding CxxRecord is of type "tuple<int>", which we see as the same
"tuple<_>", which causes the loop.

We supported globals as sources before, but we did so by allowing ClangTrace etc. to match against any access path in the footprint of the trace.
This is very powerful/flexible, but it's ultimately not a good idea because it leads to traces that are hard to read.
This is because a footprint source doesn't have any information about its provenance: we might know that the value came from a global, but we don't know where the read occurred.
The mechanism for handling procedure calls as sources already knows how to solve this problem.
This diff implements globals as sources as a special case of procedure call sources instead.
This will give us much nicer traces with full provenance of the read from the global.

Summary:
In looking at summaries that Quandary took a long time to compute, one thing I notice frequently is redundancy in the footprint sources (e.g., I might see `Footprint(x), Footprint(x.f), Footprint(x*)`).
`sudo perf top` indicates that joining big sets of sources is a major performance bottleneck, and a large number of footprint sources is surely a big part of this (since we expect the number of non-footprint sources to be small).
This diff addresses the redundancy issue by using a more complex representation for a set of sources. The "known" sources are still in a set, but the footprint sources are now represented as a set of access paths (via an access trie).
The access path trie is a minimal representation of a set of access paths, so it would represent the example above as a simple `x*`.

The newly added test demonstrates this issue. In the code, there's an ever-growing path of the form `tmp.prev.next.prev.next...` that wasn't summarized by the previous widening operator. The new widening is much more aggressive: it replaces *any* node present in `next` but not `prev` with a `*` (rather than trying to tack a star onto the end). This fixes the issue.

Problem: The analyzer did not know that the value of `v.size()` is an alias of `v.infer_size`, so `v.infer_size` is not pruned by the if condition. As a result it raises a false alarm.
void safe_access(std::vector<int> v) {
if (v.size() >= 10) {
v[9] = 1; // error: BUFFER_OVERRUN Offset: [9, 9] Size: [5, 5]
}
}
void call_safe_access_Good() {

safe_access(v);
}
Solution: Adding alias for return value to the abstract domain.
Now Inferbo can prune `v.infer_size` because it knows that the value of `v.size()` is an alias of `v.infer_size`. There is already an alias domain in Inferbo, so we added a specific room for the retrun value.

```
This matches the behavior of our Java frontend.
The reason why we prefer an explicit branch is that it will force the backend to eagerly produce two different specs for `foo`. Without the explicit branch, for the above example the backend would produce one spec with `return = (&x == &y)` as the post condition, which is not ideal because (1) we don't want local variables to escape to the function summary, and (2) with the knowledge that no two local variables may alias each other, the backend could actually determines that `&x == &y` is always false, emitting a more precise postcondition `return = 0`. This is not possible if we do not eagerly resolve the comparison expression.

Summary:
:
There are throw wrapper functions like `std::__throw_bad_alloc()` defined in both libstdc++ (https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/blob/master/libstdc%2B%2B-v3/include/bits/functexcept.h) and libc++ (e.g. 907c1196a7/include/new (L145)). Folly actually exports some of them as well (diffusion/FBS/browse/master/fbcode/folly/portability/BitsFunctexcept.h). The function body of those wrappers merely throws the corresponding exception. My understanding is that the primary purpose of the wrappers is to throw the exception if everything goes well and to fall back to something reasonable when exception is disabled (e.g. when `-fno-exceptions` is passed to the compiler).
The problem is that infer doesn't really understand what those functions do, and I've seen some false positives get reported as a result of it. So to remove those FPs we need to either model them or handle them specially. Modeling those wrappers by either whitelisting them or overriding the include files turns out to be difficult, as those wrappers are only declared but not defined in the STL headers. Their implementations are not available to Infer so whitelisting them does nothing, and if I provide custom implementations in the headers then normal compilation process will be disrupted because the linker would complain about duplicated implementation.
What I did here is to replace functions whose name matches one of the throw wrapper's name with a `BuiltinDecls.exit`. I have to admit that this is a bit hacky: initially I was trying to do something more general: replacing functions with `noreturn` attribute with `BuitinDecls.exit`. That did not work because, CMIIW, the current frontend only exports function attributes for functions with actual bodies, not declaration-only functions. I'd love to be informed if there are better ways to handle those wrappers.
