There are several kinds of 11 // possible violations: 12 // * Null pointer is passed to a pointer which has a _Nonnull type. 13 // * Null pointer is returned from a function which has a _Nonnull return type. 14 // * Nullable pointer is passed to a pointer which has a _Nonnull type. 15 // * Nullable pointer is returned from a function which has a _Nonnull return 16 // type. 17 // * Nullable pointer is dereferenced. 18 // 19 // This checker propagates the nullability information of the pointers and looks 20 // for the patterns that are described above. Explicit casts are trusted and are 21 // considered a way to suppress false positives for this checker. The other way 22 // to suppress warnings would be to add asserts or guarding if statements to the 23 // code. In addition to the nullability propagation this checker also uses some 24 // heuristics to suppress potential false positives. 25 // 26 //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// 27 28 #include "ClangSACheckers.h" 29 30 #include "clang/StaticAnalyzer/Core/BugReporter/BugType.h" 31 #include "clang/StaticAnalyzer/Core/Checker.h" 32 #include "clang/StaticAnalyzer/Core/CheckerManager.h" 33 #include "clang/StaticAnalyzer/Core/PathSensitive/CheckerHelpers.h" 34 #include "clang/StaticAnalyzer/Core/PathSensitive/CheckerContext.h" 35 #include "clang/StaticAnalyzer/Core/PathSensitive/CallEvent.h" 36 37 #include "llvm/ADT/StringExtras.h" 38 #include "llvm/Support/Path.h" 39 40 using namespace clang; 41 using namespace ento; 42 43 namespace { 44 45 /// Returns the most nullable nullability.
