Hello everybody, I've run into some strange behavior with memory sanitizer that I can't explain and hope somebody with more knowledge of the implementation would be able to help me out or at least point me into the right direction. For background, I'm using memory sanitizer to check Julia (julialang.org), which uses (or at least will once I track down a few bugs) MCJIT for the code

I assume there are transitions between JITted code and native helper functions. How are you handling them? Are native functions MSan-instrumented? MSan is passing shadow across function calls in TLS slots. Does your TLS implementation guarantee that accesses to __msan_param_tls from JITted and from native code map to the same memory?

I have verified that both TLS implementations indeed find the same area of memory. Anything else I could look for?

How is ccall() implemented? If it manually sets up a stack frame, then it also needs to store argument shadow values in paramtls. I don't think there is an overflow, unless you have a _lot_ of arguments in a function call.

The code for ccall looks right. Sounds like you have a very small range of instructions where an uninitialized value appear. You could try debugging at asm level. Shadow for b should be passed at offset 0 in __msan_param_tls. MSan could propagate shadow through arithmetic and even some logic operations (like select). It could be that b is clean on function entry, but then something uninitialized

Looks like when you materialize the stores, you should check the size of the the store and emit an appropriate amount of stores to the origin shadow (or just a memset intrinsic?).

Yes, it would be great to get that fixed.
