When LLVM sees an attempt to dereference a NULL pointer, it will generate
invalid opcodes (undefined behavior) which leads to SIGILL which breaks
this unittest. Upstream's recommendation in this case is to add volatile
markings to get the actual dereference to happen.
This is documented in the blog post under "Dereferencing a NULL Pointer":

There are a bunch of tests that use invalid memory acesses (on purpose)
to trigger a crash so that we can detect things are dumped correctly.
When we run under ASAN, it catches those accesses and the breaks the
testing flow.
For now, use the existing ADDRESS_SANITIZER symbol to disable more tests.
Ideally we'd use a compile-time attribute to disable ASAN on a few funcs,
but that seems to be broken atm.

Three unit tests were failing on recent ARM devices (e.g. Galaxy Nexus
or Nexus 4), while ran properly on older ones (e.g. Nexus S).
The main issue is that the instruction cache needs to be explicitely
cleared on ARM after writing machine code bytes to a malloc()-ed
page with PROT_EXEC.

Breakpad can be used on processes where a mistaken
library saves then restores one of our signal handlers
with 'signal' instead of 'sigaction'.
This loses the SA_SIGINFO flag associated with the
Breakpad handler, and in some cases (e.g. Android/ARM
kernels), the values of the 'info' and 'uc' parameters
that ExceptionHandler::SignalHandler() receives will
be completely bogus, leading to a crash when the function
is executed (and of course, no minidump generation).
To work-around this, have SignalHandler() check the state
of the flag. If it is incorrectly unset, re-register with
'sigaction' and the correct flag, then return. The signal
will be re-thrown, and this time the function will be
called with the correct values.

If none of the installed ExceptionHandlers handle a signal (their
FilterCallbacks or HandlerCallbacks all return false), then the signal
should be delivered to the signal handlers that were previously
installed.
This requires that old_handlers_ become a static vector so that we can
restore the handlers in the static HandleSignal.
Currently it is also restoring signals in ~ExceptionHandler (if there
are no others). This should not be required since our documentation
states that a process can only have one ExceptionHandler for which
install_handlers is true (and so we get the correct behavior if we
simply leave our handlers installed forever), but even the tests
themselves violate that.

When a variable is used to set (and lookup) MappingInfo's "start_addr"
field, it needs to match types -- which is "uintptr_t". When Chrome OS
updated the 'make' that's used for building, the 32-bit "char *" had
sign-extended when cast up to a u_int64_t -- maybe because pointers were
unsigned before and then changed to be signed -- and that caused the address
lookup to fail.

matters. But it's easy enough to do.
