I prefer the relatively localized disabling of the warning with the #pragmas as you've done as opposed to building the sanitizer builds with different settings.

I'm concerned about what looks to be an existing possible buffer overrun.

  1. The sample code used sizeof(TCHAR) not CHAR. So I'm guessing this is a potential stack buffer overrun bug for "Unicode" builds. (Windows defines CHAR to char as indicated here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winprog/windows-data-types)
  1. Does symbolizing happen on multiple threads? If not, the buffer could be static, which would keep the frame size small.

  1. In https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/dbghelp/ns-dbghelp-symbol_info it looks like the SYMBOL_INFO struct explicitly uses CHAR and isn't available in an unicode form, so this code seems to be correct in that aspect.
  1. I guess it can happen on multiple threads, for sanitizer error reporting at runtime in cases where error don't terminate the process.

LGTM, but please take the suggested edit to update a documentation URL.

URL update in case the redirect goes bad in the future.

  1. Well, there is a wide version called SYMBOL_INFOW for use with SymFromAddrW, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/dbghelp/ns-dbghelp-symbol_infow

Unlike other Win32 APIs, the "wide" versions seem to be enabled by DBGHELP_TRANSLATE_TCHAR rather than UNICODE. LLVM doesn't seem to use that, so I guess this works for now. Using sizeof(TCHAR) now might ease a future transition, but I'll leave it up to you.

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Jan 8 2021, 12:11 PM

Sure, will add that change.

I'd hold off of such further refactorings as part of this commit, and just stick to silencing warnings, but thanks for the pointers!
