549f9cd46f [analyzer] Evaluate all non-checker config options before analysis
In earlier patches regarding AnalyzerOptions, a lot of effort went into
gathering all config options, and changing the interface so that potential
misuse can be eliminited.

Up until this point, AnalyzerOptions only evaluated an option when it was
querried. For example, if we had a "-no-false-positives" flag, AnalyzerOptions
would store an Optional field for it that would be None up until somewhere in
the code until the flag's getter function is called.

However, now that we're confident that we've gathered all configs, we can
evaluate off of them before analysis, so we can emit a error on invalid input
even if that prticular flag will not matter in that particular run of the
analyzer. Another very big benefit of this is that debug.ConfigDumper will now
show the value of all configs every single time.

Also, almost all options related class have a similar interface, so uniformity
is also a benefit.

The implementation for errors on invalid input will be commited shorty.

0a1f91c80c [analyzer] Restrict AnalyzerOptions' interface so that non-checker objects have to be registered
One of the reasons why AnalyzerOptions is so chaotic is that options can be
retrieved from the command line whenever and wherever. This allowed for some
options to be forgotten for a looooooong time. Have you ever heard of
"region-store-small-struct-limit"? In order to prevent this in the future, I'm
proposing to restrict AnalyzerOptions' interface so that only checker options
can be retrieved without special getters. I would like to make every option be
accessible only through a getter, but checkers from plugins are a thing, so I'll
have to figure something out for that.

This also forces developers who'd like to add a new option to register it
properly in the .def file.

This is done by

* making the third checker pointer parameter non-optional, and checked by an
  assert to be non-null.
* I added new, but private non-checkers option initializers, meant only for
  internal use,
* Renamed these methods accordingly (mind the consistent name for once with
  getBooleanOption!):
  - getOptionAsString -> getCheckerStringOption,
  - getOptionAsInteger -> getCheckerIntegerOption
* The 3 functions meant for initializing data members (with the not very
  descriptive getBooleanOption, getOptionAsString and getOptionAsUInt names)
  were renamed to be overloads of the getAndInitOption function name.
* All options were in some way retrieved via getCheckerOption. I removed it, and
  moved the logic to getStringOption and getCheckerStringOption. This did cause
  some code duplication, but that's the only way I could do it, now that checker
  and non-checker options are separated. Note that the non-checker version
  inserts the new option to the ConfigTable with the default value, but the
  checker version only attempts to find already existing entries. This is how
  it always worked, but this is clunky and I might end reworking that too, so we
  can eventually get a ConfigTable that contains the entire configuration of the
  analyzer.

c83b0dda49 [analyzer][NFC] Fix some incorrect uses of -analyzer-config options
I'm in the process of refactoring AnalyzerOptions. The main motivation behind
here is to emit warnings if an invalid -analyzer-config option is given from
the command line, and be able to list them all.

In this patch, I found some flags that should've been used as checker options,
or have absolutely no mention of in AnalyzerOptions, or are nonexistent.

- NonLocalizedStringChecker now uses its "AggressiveReport" flag as a checker
    option
- lib/StaticAnalyzer/Frontend/ModelInjector.cpp now accesses the "model-path"
    option through a getter in AnalyzerOptions
- -analyzer-config path-diagnostics-alternate=false is not a thing, I removed it,
- lib/StaticAnalyzer/Checkers/AllocationDiagnostics.cpp and
    lib/StaticAnalyzer/Checkers/AllocationDiagnostics.h are weird, they actually
    only contain an option getter. I deleted them, and fixed RetainCountChecker
    to get it's "leak-diagnostics-reference-allocation" option as a checker option,
- "region-store-small-struct-limit" has a proper getter now.

dcde8acc32 [Analyzer] Quick Fix for exponential execution time when simpilifying complex additive expressions
Patch https://reviews.llvm.org/rC329780 not only rearranges comparisons but
also binary expressions. This latter behavior is not protected by the analyzer
option. Hower, since no complexity threshold is enforced to the symbols this
may result in exponential execution time if the expressions are too complex:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38208. For a quick fix we extended the
analyzer option to also cover the additive cases.

This is only a temporary fix, the final solution should be enforcing the
complexity threshold to the symbols.

In these cases CFG now contains additional information that allows its clients

it to an elidable constructor. If so, it includes a reference to the elidable
constructor's construction context, so that the client could elide the

2bbccca9f7 [Analyzer] SValBuilder Comparison Rearrangement (with Restrictions and Analyzer Option)
Since the range-based constraint manager (default) is weak in handling comparisons where symbols are on both sides it is wise to rearrange them to have symbols only on the left side. Thus e.g. A + n >= B + m becomes A - B >= m - n which enables the constraint manager to store a range m - n .. MAX_VALUE for the symbolic expression A - B. This can be used later to check whether e.g. A + k == B + l can be true, which is also rearranged to A - B == l - k so the constraint manager can check whether l - k is in the range (thus greater than or equal to m - n).

The restriction in this version is the the rearrangement happens only if both the symbols and the concrete integers are within the range [min/4 .. max/4] where min and max are the minimal and maximal values of their type.

The rearrangement is not enabled by default. It has to be enabled by using -analyzer-config aggressive-relational-comparison-simplification=true.

weren't explored first is not quite enough, as e.g. the first quick
traversal resulting in a report can mark everything as "visited", and
then subsequent traversals of the same region will get all the pitfalls
of DFS.
Priority queue-based approach in comparison shows much greater
increase in coverage and even performance, without sacrificing memory.

661ab34a31 [analyzer] Compute the correct this-region for temporary destructors.

Temporary destructors are called at the end of full-expression. If the
temporary is lifetime-extended, automatic destructors kick in instead,
which are not addressed in this patch, and normally already work well
modulo the overally broken support for lifetime extension.

The patch operates by attaching the this-region to the CXXBindTemporaryExpr in
the program state, and then recalling it during destruction that was triggered
by that CXXBindTemporaryExpr. It has become possible because
CXXBindTemporaryExpr is part of the construction context since r325210.

41ffb30716 [CFG] Add extra context to C++ constructor statement elements.
This patch adds a new CFGStmt sub-class, CFGConstructor, which replaces
the regular CFGStmt with CXXConstructExpr in it whenever the CFG has additional
information to provide regarding what sort of object is being constructed.

It is useful for figuring out what memory is initialized in client of the
CFG such as the Static Analyzer, which do not operate by recursive AST
traversal, but instead rely on the CFG to provide all the information when they
need it. Otherwise, the statement that triggers the construction and defines
what memory is being initialized would normally occur after the
construct-expression, and the client would need to peek to the next CFG element
or use statement parent map to understand the necessary facts about
the construct-expression.

As a proof of concept, CFGConstructors are added for new-expressions
and the respective test cases are provided to demonstrate how it works.

For now, the only additional data contained in the CFGConstructor element is
the "trigger statement", such as new-expression, which is the parent of the
constructor. It will be significantly expanded in later commits. The additional
data is organized as an auxiliary structure - the "construction context",
which is allocated separately from the CFGElement.

351c218d15 CFG: Add CFGElement for automatic variables that leave the scope
Summary:
This mimics the implementation for the implicit destructors. The
generation of this scope leaving elements is hidden behind
a flag to the CFGBuilder, thus it should not affect existing code.

Currently, I'm missing a test (it's implicitly tested by the clang-tidy
lifetime checker that I'm proposing).
I though about a test using debug.DumpCFG, but then I would
have to add an option to StaticAnalyzer/Core/AnalyzerOptions
to enable the scope leaving CFGElement,
which would only be useful to that particular test.

Any other ideas how I could make a test for this feature?

Replace SmallVector<IntrusiveRefCntPtr> with a vector of plain pointers.
Would insignificantly increase memory usage.

9dceb11b2f [analyzer] Extend bug reports with extra notes
These diagnostics are separate from the path-sensitive engine's path notes,
and can be added manually on top of path-sensitive or path-insensitive reports.

The new note diagnostics would appear as note:-diagnostic on console and
as blue bubbles in scan-build. In plist files they currently do not appear,
because format needs to be discussed with plist file users.

The analyzer option "-analyzer-config notes-as-events=true" would convert
notes to normal path notes, and put them at the beginning of the path.
This is a temporary hack to show the new notes in plist files.

A few checkers would be updated in subsequent commits,
including tests for this new feature.

83390e45b3 [Analyzer] Widening loops which do not exit
Summary:
Dear All,

We have been looking at the following problem, where any code after the constant bound loop is not analyzed because of the limit on how many times the same block is visited, as described in bugzillas #7638 and #23438. This problem is of interest to us because we have identified significant bugs that the checkers are not locating. We have been discussing a solution involving ranges as a longer term project, but I would like to propose a patch to improve the current implementation.

Example issue:
```
for (int i = 0; i < 1000; ++i) {...something...}
int *p = 0;
*p = 0xDEADBEEF;
```

The proposal is to go through the first and last iterations of the loop. The patch creates an exploded node for the approximate last iteration of constant bound loops, before the max loop limit / block visit limit is reached. It does this by identifying the variable in the loop condition and finding the value which is “one away” from the loop being false. For example, if the condition is (x < 10), then an exploded node is created where the value of x is 9. Evaluating the loop body with x = 9 will then result in the analysis continuing after the loop, providing x is incremented.

The patch passes all the tests, with some modifications to coverage.c, in order to make the ‘function_which_gives_up’ continue to give up, since the changes allowed the analysis to progress past the loop.

This patch does introduce possible false positives, as a result of not knowing the state of variables which might be modified in the loop. I believe that, as a user, I would rather have false positives after loops than do no analysis at all. I understand this may not be the common opinion and am interested in hearing your views. There are also issues regarding break statements, which are not considered. A more advanced implementation of this approach might be able to consider other conditions in the loop, which would allow paths leading to breaks to be analyzed.

Lastly, I have performed a study on large code bases and I think there is little benefit in having “max-loop” default to 4 with the patch. For variable bound loops this tends to result in duplicated analysis after the loop, and it makes little difference to any constant bound loop which will do more than a few iterations. It might be beneficial to lower the default to 2, especially for the shallow analysis setting.

Please let me know your opinions on this approach to processing constant bound loops and the patch itself.

0123af994e [analyzer] Add -analyzer-config option for function size the inliner considers as large
Add an option (-analyzer-config min-blocks-for-inline-large=14) to control the function
size the inliner considers as large, in relation to "max-times-inline-large". The option
defaults to the original hard coded behaviour, which I believe should be adjustable with
the other inlining settings.

The analyzer-config test has been modified so that the analyzer will reach the
getMinBlocksForInlineLarge() method and store the result in the ConfigTable, to ensure it
is dumped by the debug checker.
