Artifact repository for the paper "Isolating Compiler Faults via Multiple Pairs of Adversarial Compilation Configurations"

MultiConf is an innovative technique proposed in the paper "Isolating Compiler Faults via Multiple Pairs of Adversarial Compilation Configurations" for effective compiler fault localization.

This implementation evaluates MultiConf's performance using GCC.

Prerequisites

- Linux workstation

- Python 3.x

- GCC build dependencies

Getting Started

1. Setting Up Bug Information

Add compiler bugs to the respective summary files using this format:

bugId,trunk_revision,non_triggering_optimization,triggering_optimization,faulty_file

Example (from gccbugs_summary.txt):

`56478,r196310,-O1+-c,-O2+-c,gcc/predict.c`

Note: Comprehensive bug information is available in the benchmark directory.

2. Running MultiConf Analysis

Execute the script:

python3 gcc-run.py

The scripts automatically process all bugs listed in the corresponding summary files.

3. Verifying Results
