Fix CLR startup issues provided by Clang sanitizer

@steveharter commented on Thu Dec 03 2015

As part of #5236, attempt fix the clr startup issues so that test-specific sanitizer output can be determined and evaluated.

Currently, when the sanitizers are enabled, several messages from the undefined behavior sanitizer are displayed when any program is run:
/src/inc/clrhost.h:137:30: runtime error: call to function CExecutionEngine::GetTlsData() through pointer to incorrect function type 'void ()()'

/src/coreclr/hosts/unixcoreruncommon/coreruncommon.cpp:336:22: runtime error: call to function coreclr_initialize through pointer to incorrect function type 'int ()(const char *, const char *, int, const char *, const char *, void *, unsigned int *)'
/src/dlls/mscoree/unixinterface.cpp:187: note: coreclr_initialize defined here

/src/inc/clrhost.h:137:30: runtime error: call to function ClrFlsGetBlockGeneric() through pointer to incorrect function type 'void *()()'
/src/utilcode/clrhost_nodependencies.cpp:768: note: ClrFlsGetBlockGeneric() defined here

/src/inc/clrhost.h:184:30: runtime error: call to function ClrFlsGetBlockGeneric() through pointer to incorrect function type 'void *()()'

/src/pal/src/map/map.cpp:1588:35: runtime error: member access within null pointer of type 'MAPPED_VIEW_LIST' (aka 'CorUnix::_MVL')

There is also an address sanitizer error (these errors stop processing so it is blocking)

Shouldn't this move to a coreclr issue

@steveharter commented on Tue Oct 11 2016

Sure it could be moved as the bulk of the work is in coreclr. However, it is enabled for corefx native code as well.

@danmosemsft commented on Mon Oct 17 2016

Clearing assignee per our policy that assignment is for work that is imminent. UP for grabs

There's a few address sanitizer (ASan) problems also in gc.cpp around the use of the delete operator where delete [] should be used.e.g.

CFinalize::GrowArray()
{
    size_t oldArraySize = (m_EndArray - m_Array);
    size_t newArraySize =  (size_t)(((float)oldArraySize / 10) * 12);

    Object** newArray = new (nothrow) Object*[newArraySize];
    if (!newArray)
    {
        return FALSE;
    }
    memcpy (newArray, m_Array, oldArraySize*sizeof(Object*));

    //adjust the fill pointers
    for (int i = 0; i < FreeList; i++)
    {
        m_FillPointers [i] += (newArray - m_Array);
    }
    delete m_Array;
