Malavika Samak 86026ee623 [clang-tidy] Warn about misuse of sizeof operator in loops. (#143205)
The sizeof operator misuses in loop conditionals can be a source of
bugs. The common misuse is attempting to retrieve the number of elements
in the array by using the sizeof expression and forgetting to divide the
value by the sizeof the array elements. This results in an incorrect
computation of the array length and requires a warning from the sizeof
checker.

Example:
```
 int array[20];

void test_for_loop() {
  // Needs warning.
  for(int i = 0; i < sizeof(array); i++) {
    array[i] = i;
  }
}

void test_while_loop() {

  int count = 0;
  // Needs warning. 
  while(count < sizeof(array)) {
    array[count] = 0;
    count = count + 2;
  }
}
```

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch

Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, LLVM Office Hours or Regular sync-ups.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
