//
// The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

// This file is distributed under the University of Illinois Open Source
// License. See LICENSE.TXT for details.
//
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
//
// This checker tries to find nullability violations. There are several kinds of
// possible violations:
// * Null pointer is passed to a pointer which has a _Nonnull type.
// * Null pointer is returned from a function which has a _Nonnull return type.
// * Nullable pointer is passed to a pointer which has a _Nonnull type.
// * Nullable pointer is returned from a function which has a _Nonnull return
// type.
// * Nullable pointer is dereferenced.
//
// This checker propagates the nullability information of the pointers and looks
// for the patterns that are described above. Explicit casts are trusted and are
// considered a way to suppress false positives for this checker. The other way
// to suppress warnings would be to add asserts or guarding if statements to the
// code. In addition to the nullability propagation this checker also uses some
// heuristics to suppress potential false positives.

// programmer defensively checks whether a nonnull parameter contains NULL and
// finds that it does).
//
// As a matter of policy, the nullability checker typically warns on direct
// violations of the nullability invariant (although it uses various
// heuristics to suppress warnings in some cases) but will not warn if the
// invariant has already been violated along the path (either directly or
// indirectly). As a practical matter, this prevents the analyzer from
// (1) warning on defensive code paths where a nullability precondition is
// determined to have been violated, (2) warning additional times after an
// initial direct violation has been discovered, and (3) warning after a direct
// violation that has been implicitly or explicitly suppressed (for
// example, with a cast of NULL to _Nonnull). In essence, once an invariant
// violation is detected on a path, this checker will be essentially turned off
// for the rest of the analysis

// ensure coverage of defensive paths, which may be important for backwards
