We develop a portable and efficient framework VClinic for fine-grained value profilers built atop DynamoRIO. We wish to add a short line of intrudocution with corresponding external link into the README.

In short, the highlights of VClinic built upon DynamoRIO are shown as follows:

  • Decoupling implementation of value tracing and value profiling
  • Implement trace buffer with lightweight inline assembly for efficient value tracing
  • Support operand-centric view for development of fine-grained value profilers instead of instruction-centric view of DynamoRIO.
  • Currently support both ARM and X86 platforms. In the future, it can support all DynamoRIO-supported architectures.

The detailed document of VClinic can be referred to here and the related technical paper

The x64 failure is a known flake we have not been able to reproduce well enough to fix: Invalid trace entry type thread_exit (23) before a bundle #4167.
