Abstract:
A system and method capable of finding relaxed memory-model vulnerabilities in a computer program caused by running on a machine having a relaxed memory model. A relaxed memory model vulnerability in a computer program includes the presence of program executions that are not sequentially consistent. In one embodiment, non-sequentially consistent executions are detected by exploring sequentially consistent executions.
