             Bug #: 55354
           Summary: [asan] by default, the asan run-time should be linked
                    statically, not dynamically
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: other
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: konstantin.s.serebryany@gmail.com
                CC: dseketel@redhat.com, dvyukov@google.com,
                    jakub@redhat.com


Today, -faddress-sanitizer (to be changed to -fsanitize=address) causes the 
asan run-time library to be linked dynamically. 
It needs to be changed to static linkage because 
  - it matches clang behavior 
  - causes less confusion for users (where is my libasan.so???)
  - better for tsan performance (we'll need to link tsan statically too)


Note that on MacOS we probably want to keep using dynamic linkage
since the future library-interposition-based run-time will require it.
