Question for Rust people: when you use a C library, and you write a safe interface around it, is it common to build that C library with AddressSanitizer? (if not, why not?)

Didn’t thing about it, but that should be a requirement. The more safety, the better!

ASan isn't designed for providing safety / hardening and doesn't do a good job of mitigating vulnerabilities. It also adds extra attack surface and may make you worse off than not using it. It's not a memory safety implementation for C. It's a way to detect common cases of bugs.
