Hi all,
After reading the source code, I have figured out how MD2U strategy
works.
The main idea of MD2U strategy is :
Init every uncovered instruction min-distance-to-uncovered value
to 1, every covered instruction min-distance-to-uncovered value to 0;
Iterate each instruction, inherit min-distance-to-uncovered value
from it's successor, until no more min-distance-to-uncovered value have
changed.
Then we can get the min-distance-to-uncovered for every
instruction.
But I have a question that why KLEE set uncovered-update interval
default to 30 ticks rather than every time we do stepInstruction function?
Is it because of low efficiency or other reasons?
Best regards,
Chengyu
