Tutorial: Getting Started with Coccinelle - Julia Lawall, Inria

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Coccinelle is a program matching and transformation tool for C programs that has been extensively applied to the Linux kernel and is used on a number of other C code bases. Coccinelle makes it easy to specify software specific rules for finding bugs and for updating software to use new APIs. These rules can then be applied automatically across an entire code base. Over 40 Coccinelle rules are already available in the Linux kernel source code. The goal of this tutorial is to enable developers to write their own. The tutorial is designed to be hands on. Participants should have Coccinelle (available via most Linux distributions) and the Linux 3.2 source code installed on their machines.
