Description

GCC supports the Google Address Sanitizer (ASAN) with the -fsanitizer argument. This requires a run-time library for support. This project is to make this work on RTEMS. This article indicates it can work on embedded targets.

Start with examples that work on a host such as GNU/Linux and exhibit behavior that ASAN catches. Then adapt those along with whatever run-time support is required to RTEMS.
