+bugprone-conflicting-global-accesses
+====================================
+
+Finds conflicting accesses on global variables.
+
+Modifying twice or reading and modifying a memory location without a
+defined sequence of the operations is either undefined behavior or has
+unspecified order. This checker is similar to the -Wunsequenced clang warning,
+however it only looks at global variables and therefore can find conflicting
+actions recursively inside functions as well.
+
+For example::
+
+ int a = 0;
+ int b = (a++) - a; // This is flagged by -Wunsequenced.
+
+However global variables allow for more complex scenarios that
+-Wunsequenced doesn't detect. E.g. ::
+
+ int globalVar = 0;
+
+ int incFun() {
+ globalVar++;
+ return globalVar;
+ }
+
+ int main() {
+ return globalVar + incFun(); // This is not detected by -Wunsequenced.
+ }
+
+This checker attempts to detect such cases. It recurses into functions that are
