address sanitizer won't work with bash on windows

Question

Currently running llvm, clang, clang-format, and clang-modernize on Ubuntu Bash on Windows. I would like to use the set of sanitize tools released by google including addres

Taking a quick peek at the source code - MemoryMappingLayout::Next - https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/compiler-rt/trunk/lib/sanitizer_common/sanitizer_procmaps_linux.cc - it appears the issue is that bash on ubuntu on windows support for the /proc filesystem is incomplete.

The code that fails is looking at /proc/self/maps - which actually - appears to be about right.

But I've found other stuff (e.g. networking ) in /proc completely broken on bashonwindowsonunix - so I'm pretty sure that part is a work in progress.
