This substantially improves -the functional coverage for the fuzzed code. The compact synthesized -corpora produced by the tool are also useful for seeding other, more -labor- or resource-intensive testing regimes down the road. - -To use afl with binary-only code (no source available), a custom qemu -wrapper is used (afl-qemu-trace). This does NOT require a system-wide -installation of qemu, but it does require the source to qemu. To build -qemu support, download the qemu source from: - -https://download.qemu-project.org/qemu-2.10.0.tar.xz - -Save the file in the same directory as the afl.SlackBuild script. - -If binary-only support is not needed, don't download the qemu -source. This will speed up the build quite a bit. |
