//
-// We avoid the use of libc for two reasons:
+// We don't use any libc functions, relying instead on direct syscalls. There
+// are two reasons for this:
// 1. calling a library function while threads are suspended could cause a
// deadlock, if one of the treads happens to be holding a libc lock;
// 2. it's generally not safe to call libc functions from the tracer task,
// because clone() does not set up a thread-local storage for it. Any
// thread-local variables used by libc will be shared between the tracer task
// and the thread which spawned it.
-//
-// We deal with this by replacing libc calls with calls to our own
-// implementations defined in sanitizer_libc.h and sanitizer_linux.h. However,
-// there are still some libc functions which are used here:
-//
-// * All of the system calls ultimately go through the libc syscall() function.
-// We're operating under the assumption that syscall()'s implementation does
-// not acquire any locks or use any thread-local data (except for the errno
-// variable, which we handle separately).
-//
-// * We lack custom implementations of sigfillset() and sigaction(), so we use
-// the libc versions instead. The same assumptions as above apply.
-//
-// * It is safe to call libc functions before the cloned thread is spawned or
-// after it has exited. The following functions are used in this manner:
-// sigdelset()
-// sigprocmask()
