Our lab WIP to run regression test with enabling Asan tool build, already 
reported dozens of issues by Asan tool, continue for unit test and issue 
resolve.

Yeah, it is a powerful tool that could help to catch more issues and error log 
print, happy that more guys found this tool value and working on this. 
So it is important and meaningful if this tool code could merge. 
These issues only captured when enable Asan tool build, without the tool, not 
impact current test, also this tool is not supported before. 
We are trying our best and WIP to do regression test based on our all of 
current regression test cases, capture issues and check. 
Some resolved issue patches for Asan detected have been merged, and found that 
some of issues we captured are same to UNH captured.
But we can't cover all, once the code merge, more users could guarantee if 
their code or module have memory issue, and supply solution for issue fix.
