Hi! Recently, I'm stumbled in such an easy task as build Postgres with clang and sanitizer.
Usually, I use autotools to build Postgres something like this: ================================================================================ SRC="../postgres" TRG="/tmp" LINUX_CONFIGURE_FEATURES=" --without-llvm --with-tcl --with-tclconfig=/usr/lib/tcl8.6/ --with-perl --with-python --with-gssapi --with-pam --with-ldap --with-selinux --with-systemd --with-uuid=ossp --with-libxml --with-libxslt --with-zstd --with-ssl=openssl " CC="ccache clang" CXX="ccache clang++" \ CFLAGS="-Og -ggdb -fno-sanitize-recover=all -fsanitize=alignment,undefined" \ CXXFLAGS="-Og -ggdb -fno-sanitize-recover=all -fsanitize=alignment,undefined" \ LDFALGS="-fsanitize=alignment,undefined" \ \ $SRC/configure \ -C \ --prefix=$TRG/"pgsql" \ --enable-debug --enable-tap-tests --enable-depend --enable-cassert \ --enable-injection-points --enable-nls \ $LINUX_CONFIGURE_FEATURES ... $ ./config.status --config '-C' '--prefix=/tmp/pgsql' '--enable-debug' '--enable-tap-tests' '--enable-depend' '--enable-cassert' '--enable-injection-points' '--enable-nls' '--without-llvm' '--with-tcl' '--with-tclconfig=/usr/lib/tcl8.6/' '--with-perl' '--with-python' '--with-gssapi' '--with-pam' '--with-ldap' '--with-selinux' '--with-systemd' '--with-uuid=ossp' '--with-libxml' '--with-libxslt' '--with-zstd' '--with-ssl=openssl' 'CC=ccache clang' 'CFLAGS=-Og -ggdb -fno-sanitize-recover=all -fsanitize=alignment,undefined' 'CXX=ccache clang++' 'CXXFLAGS=-Og -ggdb -fno-sanitize-recover=all -fsanitize=alignment,undefined' ================================================================================ Then it compiles with no problems. Now I exact the same, but with meson build. ================================================================================ LINUX_CONFIGURE_FEATURES=" --with-gssapi --with-icu --with-ldap --with-libxml --with-libxslt --with-lz4 --with-zstd --with-pam --with-perl --with-python --with-tcl --with-tclconfig=/usr/lib/tcl8.6 --with-selinux --with-sll=openssl --with-systemd --with-uuid=ossp " LINUX_MESON_FEATURES="-Dllvm=disabled -Duuid=e2fs" PG_TEST_EXTRA="kerberos ldap ssl libpq_encryption load_balance" SANITIZER_FLAGS="-fsanitize=alignment,undefined" \ CC="ccache clang" \ CXX="ccache clang++" \ CFLAGS="-Og -ggdb -fno-sanitize-recover=all $SANITIZER_FLAGS" \ CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS" \ LDFALGS="$SANITIZER_FLAGS" \ meson setup \ --buildtype=debug -Dcassert=true -Dinjection_points=true \ -Dprefix=/tmp/pgsql \ ${LINUX_MESON_FEATURES} \ -DPG_TEST_EXTRA="$PG_TEST_EXTRA" \ build-meson postgres ...

My OS info: $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS Release: 22.04 Codename: jammy Previously, I've got the same troubles on my old trusty 32-bit laptop on Debian. But, there was no time to dig deeper in the problem at the time. And now same for 64-bit Ubuntu. The most common reason for such errors are not passing appropriate sanitizer flags to LDFLAGS, but this is not the case. What could be the reason for this? Am I doin' something wrong? Exact the same sequence, but for GCC, works splendidly. -- Best regards, Maxim Orlov.
