Phoronix: LLVM Prepares New ThreadSanitizer Runtime That Is Faster, Lower Memory Use

LLVM developers have been working recently to land their new ThreadSanitizer run-time. The TSan as a reminder is the compiler instrumentation with associated run-time library for being able to detect data races...

I use Rust so I don't have any data races.

I use Rust so I don't have any data races.

I use Rust too and had a data race when implementing a multithreaded FIFO buffer using UnsafeCell. Pretty sure the old TSan is already available via a -Z flag.

I use Rust so I don't have any data races.

I use an overly wasteful global lock so I don't have any data races.

I feel bad for you, using Python.

I use ThreadSanatizer. Great work!

I wonder is it possible for ThreadSanitizer itself to have race condition?

Can we run ThreadSanitizer with ThreadSanitizer?

... GoRoutines!? *searches* apparently there is another "compile go with llvm" project https://go.googlesource.com/gollvm/

shares a common frontend with GCCGO
