Hi Jakub,

__tsan_func_entry pushes a few bytes on a call stack heap,
and __tsan_func_exit pops these again. Therefore it is absolotely
necessary to call these functions in pairs.

If I run the a.out from the test cases, and I have the system monitor
in the background, I can see my 8GB of memory quickly used up,
and then my linux starts to page a lot so that it is hardly possible
to press CTRL-C.

There may of course also be a SIGSEGV in __tsan_func_entry when the
heap finally overflows.

Bernd.
