Hi, I want to do the following however not sure what the correct way to do would be. I'd be grateful if you can give suggestions.
Basically I'd like to trace the usage of a variable v. For instance in the code below I'd like to check for usage of a ptr after it has been freed. So the variable (or ptr) of interest is myptr , and statement printf("myptr1 %d\n",*myptr); is what I am interested in , since it uses myptr after myptr is freed. I am wondering if I need to calculate a CFG for the code ? or what would the common strategies be for these purposes ? Some pseudo code would be helpful. Thanks in advance // example void f1(int *myptr1){ free(myptr1); myptr1 = ((void *)0); } int main(int argc, char *argv[]){ int *myptr = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int)); *myptr1 = 10; printf("myptr1 %d\n",*myptr); //OK , no prob f1(myptr); //free ptr printf("myptr1 %d\n",*myptr); //NOT-OK, deref a nullptr return 0; } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ CIL-users mailing list CIL-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/cil-users
