Fiber stacks are heap-allocated via `aligned_alloc`, so MSan considers them entirely uninitialized. Unlike the program's main stack (which the OS zero-initializes), fiber stack bytes that are never explicitly written to remain "uninitialized" in MSan's shadow. This causes false positives when stack slots are reused across function calls within the fiber — MSan traces the origin back to an earlier allocation in a completely unrelated function. The fix calls `__msan_unpoison` on the fiber stack after allocation. This is safe because MSan's per-variable lifetime tracking (via `__lifetime.start` / `__lifetime.end` compiler intrinsics) still properly resets shadow state for each local variable, so real uninitialized value bugs are still detected. https://s3.amazonaws.com/clickhouse-test-reports/json.html?PR=98677&sha=8536dc82c7ed23a6a5ebf073f36235f5be6ea9d7&name_0=PR&name_1=Stress%20test%20%28arm_msan%29 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <[email protected]>
