[sanitizer] Add "mainfile" prefix to sanitizer special case list

[MaskRay]

Summary

When an issue exists in the main file (caller) instead of an included file
(callee), using a src pattern applying to the included file may be
inappropriate if it's the caller's responsibility. Add mainfile prefix to check
the main filename.

For the example below, the issue may reside in a.c (foo should not be called
with a misaligned pointer or foo should switch to an unaligned load), but with
src we can only apply to the innocent callee a.h. With this patch we can use
the more appropriate mainfile:a.c.

//--- a.h
// internal linkage
static inline int load(int *x) { return *x; }

//--- a.c, -fsanitize=alignment
#include "a.h"
int foo(void *x) { return load(x); }

See updated clang/docs/SanitizerSpecialCaseList.rst for caveat using
mainfile due to C++ vague linkage functions.

problem with included files that we don't know which non-inlined version of the function will endup in the binary
so using this option, user may unintentionally disable instrumentation on all included headers, even when included from a different place

This argument applies to vague linkage functions which are deduplicated.
There are many internal linkage function use cases which can benefit this, e.g. static inline.
But thanks for the comment. Let me improve the summary.

I understand how it benefit static inclines, it still unintentionally regress instrumentation for other code.
we need at least a warning in documentation

Also if this is not widespread problem, I would prefer we don't do that.
Having mainsrc: in ignore list will complicate debugging false negatives.

[vitalybuka]

mainsrc may still be useful, e.g. if a wildcard is used to ensure the prevailing one is ignored.

Not sure I understand, how can we make that? Usually it's hard to control what is included, especially indirectly.

we search exactly the same MainFile.getName() in containsMainFile and containsFile ?

I see, it's some fallback branch

if this is transitionalt solution, would it be better just to use -fno-sanitize= on *.cpp file?

Added: `(There is an action at a distance risk.)`

This provides a more convenient way than using -fno-sanitize= for a different set of files.

E.g. if a group wants to ignore a check for all `[a-m]* files, then can use mainsrc:[a-m]* instead of patching the build system.

[vitalybuka]

The patch is LGTM, but please consider to keep an ignorelist limited.

Convenience of -fno-sanitize= approach that you make it visible to maintainer of component. Then it's their responsibility.
Ignore list is toolchain team debt.

I think the name 'mainsrc' is slightly misleading because of the association with the 'main' function. Maybe something like primarysrc would be better to avoid this confusion?

How about mainfile? Clang resources to the file as the main file. I picked src suffix just to be similar to src...

[vitalybuka]

I guess Kirills' complain is about main part, not src.
But I have no idea what name could be better.
I guess thechnically it's preprocessed src? :)
To me as is name is fine.

[vitalybuka]

"unit:" ?

mainsrc => mainfile

Clang names the file "main file". CC1 has options like -main-file-name.
Using "mainfile" instead of "mainsrc" avoids introducing new terminology.

+``mainsrc`` is similar to applying ``-fno-sanitize=`` to a set of files but does
+not need plumbing into the build system. This works well for internal linkage
+functions but has a caveat for C++ vague linkage functions.
+
+C++ vague linkage functions (e.g. inline functions, template instantiations) are
+deduplicated at link time. A function (in an included file) ignored by a
+specific ``mainsrc`` pattern function may not be the prevailing copy picked by
+the linker. Therefore, using ``mainsrc`` requires caution. It may still be
+useful, e.g. when patterns are picked in a way to ensure the prevailing one is
+ignored. (There is an action at a distance risk.)
+
+``mainsrc`` can be useful enabling a ubsan check for a large code base when
+finding the direct stack frame triggering the failure for every failure is
+difficult.
