Online Set-Based Dynamic Analysis for Sound Predictive Race Detection


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Predictive data race detectors find data races that exist in executions other than the observed execution. Smaragdakis et al. introduced the causally-precedes (CP) relation and a polynomial-time analysis for sound (no false races) predictive data race detection. However, their analysis cannot scale beyond analyzing bounded windows of execution traces. This work introduces a novel dynamic analysis called Raptor that computes CP soundly and completely. Raptor is inherently an online analysis that analyzes and finds all CP-races of an execution trace in its entirety. An evaluation of a prototype implementation of Raptor shows that it scales to program executions that the prior CP analysis cannot handle, finding data races that the prior CP analysis cannot find.
