1 Bisection Bug Search
2 ====================
3 
4 Bisection Bug Search is a tool for finding compiler optimizations bugs. It
5 accepts a program which exposes a bug by producing incorrect output and expected
6 output for the program. It then attempts to narrow down the issue to a single
7 method and optimization pass under the assumption that interpreter is correct.
8 
9 Given methods in order M0..Mn finds smallest i such that compiling Mi and
10 interpreting all other methods produces incorrect output. Then, given ordered
11 optimization passes P0..Pl, finds smallest j such that compiling Mi with passes
12 P0..Pj-1 produces expected output and compiling Mi with passes P0..Pj produces
13 incorrect output. Prints Mi and Pj.

15 How to run Bisection Bug Search
16 ===============================
17 
18 There are two supported invocation modes:
19 
20 1. Regular invocation, dalvikvm command is constructed internally:
21 
22         ./bisection_search.py -cp classes.dex --expected-output out_int --class Test
23 
24 2. Raw-cmd invocation, dalvikvm command is accepted as an argument.
25 
26    Extra dalvikvm arguments will be placed on second position in the command
27    by default. {ARGS} tag can be used to specify a custom position.
28 
29    If used in device mode, the command has to exec a dalvikvm instance. Bisection
30    will fail if pid of the process started by raw-cmd is different than pid of runtime.
31 
32         ./bisection_search.py --raw-cmd='run.sh -cp classes.dex Test' --expected-retcode SUCCESS
33         ./bisection_search.py --raw-cmd='/bin/sh art {ARGS} -cp classes.dex Test' --expected-retcode SUCCESS
