pkg_add llvm and run "scan-build" on your code, then you get a quite thorough analysis on what potential error code paths it detects, with fancy webpages to go along with the explanations for each found issue: http://c66.it.su.se:8080/obsd/scan-build-2019-10-10-202112-79522-1/report-3f2f00.html#EndPath It's not 100% perfect of course, but it still is a neat way to point out where in the code you may need to make an extra effort to cover corner cases. > I also wouldn't mind any other useful tips that might not be software. > Any help very appreciated. Perhaps this fuzzing guide helps a bit getting programs to run better? https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20150121093259 -- May the most significant bit of your life be positive.
