DX tooling: sanitizer presets and CI, sccache, pinned deps, devcontainer; fix sanitizer findings - #75
Conversation
bzip2 is pinned to the current master commit (1.0.8 has no CMake build); jansson moves to the v2.15.1 release, which builds with CMake 4.
- MAFIANET_SANITIZER builds every target with -fsanitize=<list>. - sccache/ccache is used as the compiler launcher when found on PATH (MAFIANET_USE_COMPILER_CACHE, on by default). - Presets: minimal, asan, tsan, plus test presets (unit, integration, per-config) and workflow presets, so 'cmake --workflow --preset asan' configures, builds and tests in one command. Presets move to schema 6 (CMake 3.25); the project itself still needs only 3.21.
SendConnectionRequest copied passwordDataLength bytes from passwordData even when no password is set, passing a null source to memcpy. That is undefined behaviour even for a length of 0 (glibc declares the argument nonnull), and UBSan aborts on it in every connecting integration test.
ThreadSanitizer reports races on all of these: - RakPeer::endThreads / isMainLoopThreadActive and RNS2_Berkley::endThreads were volatile bool spin-wait flags. volatile gives no happens-before edge between the network thread and Startup/Shutdown; std::atomic<bool> does. - LocklessUint32_t::GetValue read the counter without the barrier the writers used. It is now std::atomic<uint32_t> on every platform, which also fixes Increment/Decrement returning the old value on Linux, contrary to the documented contract (no caller used the return value). - GetTimeUS_Linux lazily initialised its time base through unsynchronised globals; it now uses a function-local static.
…ependabot - .editorconfig mirrors the tab/Allman source style. It sets no end_of_line: the tree mixes CRLF and LF files. - .clangd points at the debug preset's compile_commands.json; .clang-tidy is a focused correctness/modernize set, diagnostics only. - .devcontainer gives a Linux environment (ptrace and TSan-friendly seccomp) for the Linux-only batched I/O paths and the sanitizer presets. - Dependabot bumps GitHub Actions, the docs requirements and the Dockerfile base image monthly.
SendGateBypass and SlotInspector downcast the RakPeer returned by GetInstance() to a test-only subclass it is not an instance of. That is undefined behaviour, and UBSan's vptr check aborts four SessionConfigLive tests on it. Naming the protected member through the derived class and applying the pointer-to-member to the real RakPeer gives the same access legally.
Clear() on a pool whose threads were never started (or already stopped) returned with runThreadsMutex still locked. The destructor calls Clear(), so every FileListTransfer destroyed a locked mutex, and any later call taking the lock from another thread (WasStarted, StartThreads) blocked forever. Found by ThreadSanitizer.
- sanitizers (asan): ASan + UBSan over both suites, blocking. - sanitizers (tsan): TSan over both suites, advisory. RakNet's public getters read network-thread state without locking by design; those races are baselined in ci/tsan.supp so the job reports new ones. - sccache backs the Linux, minimal, macOS and sanitizer builds with the GitHub Actions cache. Windows (Visual Studio generator) has no launcher support and is unchanged.

Clear()released the mutex. Replace the timed assertion with a deterministic lock-state check that still detects the retained lock. As per coding guidelines, unit tests must be “Hermetic and deterministic” with “no dependence on wall-clock time.”🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

tests” step in the sanitizer workflow so any sanitizer failure remains fatal;
keep the integration test selection and JUnit output options unchanged.
Review comments at @CMakePresets.json:
- Line 112: Update the unit preset’s execution.jobs setting from zero to a
bounded job count, such as four, or remove it so CTEST_PARALLEL_LEVEL can
control parallelism. Ensure the preset does not trigger unbounded parallel test
execution with CTest 3.29 or newer.

…or TSan read MSVC requires a local constexpr used in a lambda to be captured; make the constants static. SessionConfigLive's SlotInspector reads the server's slot state without a lock on purpose, which TSan reports on CI runners.
Both tests used one fixed path and removed it on setup and teardown, so running them in parallel (the sanitizer jobs run the unit suite with --parallel) let one delete the other's tree mid-walk.
Adds SimpleMutex::TryLock (pthread_mutex_trylock / TryEnterCriticalSection) so the ThreadPool::Clear regression test checks the lock state directly from a second thread instead of waiting up to ten seconds for a blocked call. A pool that kept its lock is leaked rather than destroyed, since its destructor would deadlock.
…nit preset jobs Integration retries absorb loopback timing misses, but a sanitizer report in a failed attempt could be hidden by a passing retry. ctest now writes every attempt to a log, and a follow-up step fails on any sanitizer report in it. Drops "jobs": 0 from the unit test preset: CTest 3.29+ reads it as unbounded parallelism, older versions as a single job.
