Liebes Open Source Treffen Leute, konnte Folgendes von Interesse sein ?
LG, Michele ----- Forwarded message from Michele Martone <[email protected]> ----- From: Michele Martone <[email protected]> Subject: Introduction to Semantic Patching of C programs with Coccinelle To: "Mailingliste des http://curry-club-augsburg.de"; <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2019 17:28:22 +0200 User-Agent: Mutt/1.8.3 (2017-05-23) Dear Curry Club, I think this one-day event I'm re-organizing might be of interest. It's not strictly functional programming related -- unless you want to script Coccinelle using Ocaml... Mini-Poster attached, in case you want to promote. Coccinelle is a tool routinely used to upgrade automatically Linux kernel drivers using program rewriting.. and that shall be of interest of some of you here -- last time it did :-) ******************************************************************************* Introduction to Semantic Patching of C programs with Coccinelle We are pleased to announce that the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre will continue with the recently introduced "Introduction to Semantic Patching of C programs with Coccinelle" training for advanced C/C++ programmers. Date & Location Tuesday, October 8, 2019, 10:00 - 17:00 Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, Garching near Munich, Boltzmannstr. 1 Course Description The maintenance of a large software project can be very demanding. External factors like evolving third-party software library APIs, or constantly changing hardware platforms might require significant code adaptions for the code to run efficiently, or to run at all. Failure in coping with this can lead to obsolescence, loss of performance, incompatibility, vendor lock-in, bugs. Have you ever wondered how to detect and manipulate specified classes of C code constructs, be it for code analysis, or better, to restructure an arbitrarily large codebase according to a specified, non-trivial `pattern', without writing a C compiler? In this training we introduce you to a tool to do exactly this: match and restructure C codebases in a programmatic, formal way. The training will also show how to analyze code looking for interesting patterns (e.g. bugs), integrate with your Python scripts to achieve the custom transformations you need, and leverage Coccinelle's limited C++ support. Special attention will be on performance-oriented transformations, of other interests of HPC practitioners. After this training, you shall be able to write your own code transformations, be it for a refactoring, performance improvement, paving the way to an experimental fork, or for debugging and further analysis.
