| +Handling Wide Loads
|
| +===================
|
| +
|
| +Since AddressSanitizer is implemented only in Subzero, the target .pexe may
|
| +contain widened loads that would cause false positives. To avoid reporting such
|
| +loads as errors, we treat any word-aligned, four byte load as a potentially
|
| +widened load and only check the first byte of the loaded word against shadow
|
| +memory.
