SVA/safecode looks interesting. Is it available to play with? I grepped for strings such as "sva" "secure" "safecode" in the LLVM source tree and didn't find anything, nor did I see obvious links to implementations from the project web pages. In the short term, questions I'd be interested in answering are: What happens when embedded codes that I care

The release_26 branch in the SVN repository works with LLVM 2.6, and mainline is working (with some regressions) with the upcoming LLVM 2.7. You can subscribe to the SVA Commits mailing list

What options do I give to the patch command to apply it to the source code? Although there's no documentation about

Dear All, I've developed a patch for mainline LLVM that integrates parts of the SAFECode memory safety compiler (http://sva.cs.illinois.edu) into LLVM. The patch includes transforms that add run-time safety checks to loads and stores and GetElementPtr instructions, a run-time library that implements the checks, a transform that enhances the run-time checks with source file debugging

Dear All, We have a new release of Clang with SAFECode technology for detecting memory safety errors. Memory safety checking (SAFECode for short) can be turned on with a single command line switch to clang/clang++. The SAFECode techniques do not change the behavior of the clang/clang++ compilers in any way when the switch is turned off, so this can be used as a drop-in replacement for

Hi， John Criswell！ You have said to me that SAFECode had not been maintained for several years, now I have submitted my proposal for updating the SAFCode project to the new LLVM APIs. If you are still interested in the topic and willing to guid my project, I will be very happy. Now I'm waiting for you comments. Here is my proposal:

John, The release source code (sc-main.tar) won't compile cleanly under Debian6-i386 (gcc/g++: 4.4.5). The compiler back trace is attached. Please fix it/them and repost. Or, 64b system is a requirement? Thank you Chuck llvm[4]: Compiling TypeRuntime.cpp for Release+Asserts build (PIC) cc1plus: warnings being treated as errors

Hi, My apologies for the trouble. I've disabled building DynamicTypeChecks for now (r138224) and now it builds cleanly on 32bit for me here. As for SAFECode support for 32bit vs 64bit, I believe 32bit should work just fine although I haven't personally tested this. Let me know if you have any further issues/questions. ~Will On Sun, Aug 21, 2011 at 9:26 AM, Chuck Zhao <czhao at

How about state of SVA (Secure Virutal Archtecture)? It seems there is no any demo or prototype produced.

Are there any plans to add CMake support to the build of SAFECode? Also are there any current instructions for building llvm/clang with SAFECode support from current svn? Jack

John, We (more accurately, John Criswell and Brice Lin) are working on a debugging version of SAFECode right now, which should be robust enough to play with soon. What kinds of embedded codes do you have in mind? One of our goals has been to minimize or even eliminate run-time checks for embedded code that meets certain restrictions. You can see the following paper for more details:

Hi Nuno, I noticed your commits related to -fbounds-checking and have some questions. The functionality of this new phase seems to (partially?) overlap with AddressSanitizer and SAFECode, so I am curious how would you compare the two existing tools with the new one. Earlier you wrote: >> So the main idea of this new flag is not for debugging, but rather for production. >> This means

Thanks for the fast response John.
