One Line Summary

Abstract

Beyond traditional compilation
or why the Linux community should stop the single compiler monopoly.

Compilers are not only for code generation any more.
Modern compilers provide a wide range of tools that perform static and dynamic program analysis, control- and data-flow-guided fuzzing, and security hardening. We’ll talk about all of these new compiler features implemented in Clang/LLVM and show how they are going to help Linux, both the kernel and the user-space.
