A special linker for ASan executables.
Setup a /system/bin/linker_asan as a symlink to "linker".
Read the linker name from PT_INTERP, and if it is linker_asan,
switch default library lookup paths to the ASan set, which
starts with the path to the instrumented libraries
(/data/lib), followed by /system/lib as a fallback.
This ensures that ASan binaries prefer ASan libraries, when
available. This approach is way better then RPATH/RUNPATH and even
better than LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
- RUNPATH is per-DSO, while default paths are global.
- LD_LIBRARY_PATH is overwritten by android_update_LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
- neither RUNPATH nor LD_LIBRARY_PATH appear in
android_get_LD_LIBRARY_PATH which is used to build java.lang.path.
Having ASan libraries in java.lang.path is a good thing.
