Reproduce Bugs

Till submission, Tzer has been detected 40 bugs for TVM with 30 confirmed and 24 fixed (merged in the latest branch). Due to the anonymous review policy of OOPSLA, the links of actual bug reports will be provided after the review process.

We provide strong reproducibility of our work. To reproduce all bugs, all you need to do is a single click Open In Colab on your browser. Since some bugs need to be triggered by some complex GPU settings, to maximumly ease the hardware and software effort, the bugs are summarized in a Google Colab environment (No GPU required, but just a browser!).

Quick Start

You can easily start using Tzer with docker.

docker run --rm -it tzerbot/oopsla

# Inside the image.
cd tzer
python3 src/main_tir.py --fuzz-time 10     --report-folder ten-minute-fuzz
#                       run for 10 min.    bugs in folder `ten-minute-fuzz`

Successful installation looks like:

Report folder contents [click to expand]
  • cov_by_time.txt: a csv file where columns means "time" (second) and edge coverage;
  • ${BUG_TYPE}_${BUG_ID}.error_message.txt: error message snapshot of failures;
  • ${BUG_TYPE}_${BUG_ID}.ctx: context data to reproduce bugs (stored in Pickle. See config.py)
  • meta.txt: metadata including git version of TVM and experiment time;
  • tir_by_time.pickle: generated <F, P> (i.e., TIR and Passes) files (if TIR_REC=1 is set);
  • valid_seed_new_cov_count.txt: number of generated valid tests with new coverage;
Main commandline options [click to expand]

Commandline options (added as tail of commands):

  • --fuzz-time: Time budget of fuzzing (minute);
  • --tolerance: Parameter $N_{max}$ in the paper (control the interleaving of IR and pass mutation);
  • --report-folder: Path to store results (e.g., coverage trend);

Environment variables to control the algorithm options (added the prefix of commands):

  • PASS=1 to enable pass mutation;
  • NO_SEEDS=1 to disable initial seeds (start from an empty function);
  • NO_COV=1 to disable the coverage feedback;
  • TIR_REC=1to record generated TIR files (for evaluating non-coverage version);

PASS=1 LOW=1 python3 src/main_tir.py --fuzz-time 240 --report-folder ablation-5 --tolerance 4

Note that fuzzing is performance-sensitive: To obtain reliable results, evaluation should be conducted in a "clean" environment (e.g., close irrelavant processes as many as possible). To determine how "clean" your environment is, you can log the load average of your Linux system. Expected load average should be around 1 or lower (as what we did in the experiments).

Installation

Expected requirements [click to expand]
  • Hardware: 8GB RAM; 256G Storage; X86 CPU; Good Network to GitHub; Docker (for Docker installation)
  • Software: Linux (tested under Manjaro and Ubuntu20.04. Other Linux distributions should also work)

We provide 3 methods for installing Tzer:

Docker Hub (Recommended, Out-of-the-box!) [click to expand]

Directly run Tzer in pre-built container image! Make sure you have docker installed.

docker run --rm -it tzerbot/oopsla
Docker Build (10~20 min., for customized development) [click to expand]

Build Tzer under a docker environment! Make sure you have docker installed.

  1. git clone https://github.com/ise-uiuc/tzer.git && cd tzer
  2. docker build --tag tzer-oopsla:eval .
  3. docker run --rm -it tzer-oopsla:eval
Manual Build (20~30 min., for customized dev. and native performance) [click to expand]
Build Tzer natively on your Linux:

Prepare dependencies:

# Arch Linux / Manjaro
sudo pacman -Syy
sudo pacman -S compiler-rt llvm llvm-libs compiler-rt clang cmake git python3
# Ubuntu
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y libfuzzer-12-dev # If you fail, try "libfuzzer-11-dev", "-10-dev", ...
sudo apt install -y clang cmake git python3

Build TVM and Tzer:

git clone https://github.com/ise-uiuc/tzer.git
cd tzer/tvm_cov_patch

# Build TVM with intruments
bash ./build_tvm.sh # If you fail, check the script for step-by-step instruction;
cd ../../../
# If success:
# tvm with coverage is installed under `tvm_cov_patch/tvm`
# tvm without coverage is under `tvm_cov_patch/tvm-no-cov`

# Install Python dependency
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

# Set up TVM_HOME and PYTHONPATH env var before using TVM and Tzer.
export TVM_HOME=$(realpath tvm_cov_patch/tvm)
export TVM_NO_COV_HOME=$(realpath tvm_cov_patch/tvm-no-cov)
export PYTHONPATH=$TVM_HOME/python

Extend Tzer

We implemented many re-usable functionalities for future and open research! To easily implement other coverage-guided fuzzing algorithm for TVM, after your installing TVM with memcov by applying tvm_cov_patch/memcov4tvm.patch to TVM (See tvm_cov_patch/build_tvm.sh), you can get current coverage of TVM by:

from tvm.contrib import coverage

print(coverage.get_now()) # Current visited # of CFG edges
print(coverage.get_total()) # Total number of # of CFG edges

coverage.push() # store current coverage snapshot to a stack and reset it to empty (useful for multi-process scenario)
coverage.pop()  # merge the top snapshot from the stack. 

Usage push-pop combo: Some times the target program might crash, but we don't want the fuzzer to be affected by the failure. Therefore, you can set a "safe guard" by:

  1. push: save current snapshot and reset the coverage hitmap;
  2. raise a sub-process to compile target IR & passes with TVM;
  3. pop: merge the snapshot of the sub-process and last stored snapshot (top of the stack) to get a complete coverage.

Latency of the combo is optimized to ~1ms as we applied bit-level optimization.
