Automated Classification of Data Races Under Both Strong and Weak Memory Models

George Candea, Cristian Zamfir, Baris Can Cengiz Kasikci

Data races are one of the main causes of concurrency problems in multithreaded programs. Whether all data races are bad, or some are harmful and others are harmless, is still the subject of vigorous scientific debate [Narayanasamy et al. 2007; Boehm 2012]. ...

Techniques for Detection, Root Cause Diagnosis, and Classification of In-Production Concurrency Bugs

Baris Can Cengiz Kasikci

Concurrency bugs are at the heart of some of the worst bugs that plague software. Concurrency bugs slow down software development because it can take weeks or even months before developers can identify and fix them. In-production detection, root cause ...

Automated Debugging for Arbitrarily Long Executions

George Candea, Edouard Bugnion, Johannes Kinder, Cristian Zamfir, Baris Can Cengiz Kasikci

One of the most energy-draining and frustrating parts of software development is playing detective with elusive bugs. In this paper we argue that automated post-mortem debugging of failures is feasible for real, in-production systems with no runtime record ...

Data Races vs. Data Race Bugs: Telling the Difference with Portend

George Candea, Cristian Zamfir, Baris Can Cengiz Kasikci

Even though most data races are harmless, the harmful ones are at the heart of some of the worst concurrency bugs. Alas, spotting just the harmful data races in programs is like finding a needle in a haystack: 76%-90% of the true data races reported by sta ...

CoRD: A Collaborative Framework for Distributed Data Race Detection

George Candea, Cristian Zamfir, Baris Can Cengiz Kasikci

Modern concurrent software is riddled with data races and these races constitute the source of many problems. Data races are hard to detect accurately before software is shipped and, once they cause failures in production, developers find it challenging to ...
