Bug ID: 98165
Summary: Use of the UB sanitizer links the the program with
libstdc++
Product: gcc
Version: 10.2.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: sanitizer
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org

Target Milestone: ---
I would like to use the 'signed-integer-overflow' sanitizer (part of the
undefined behaviour sanitizer) for all my C programs, as a security measure.
However, doing so with GCC causes a link dependency towards libstdc++:
$ gcc -Wall -fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow foo.c
$ ldd ./a.out
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc73977000)
libubsan.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libubsan.so.1
(0x00007fbec9aa0000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007fbec98b6000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007fbec98b0000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0
(0x00007fbec988e000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6
(0x00007fbec96ad000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1
(0x00007fbec9692000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fbeca42a000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007fbec9541000)
I don't want this, because libstdc++ increases the startup time of programs
(from ca. 2 ms to ca. 7 ms).
This is with gcc 10.2.0. With clang 11.0.0, I don't have this problem:
$ clang -fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow foo.c
$ ldd ./a.out
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffc25e3000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0
(0x00007f5fc1486000)
librt.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so.1 (0x00007f5fc127e000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007f5fc0f75000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f5fc0d71000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1
(0x00007f5fc0b5b000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f5fc0791000)
