[**\[Experimental Bot, please feedback here\]**](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Fnuttx+13552&type=issues) The PR summary is very difficult to understand without context. Here's a breakdown of why this PR summary doesn't meet NuttX requirements and how to improve it: **Problems:** * **Unclear Purpose:** The summary primarily focuses on the test results rather than the change itself. What was changed to achieve these results? * **Missing Key Information:** * **Why?** What problem does this change solve? Why is knowing which APIs support KASan important? * **What?** What code was modified to print these results? Was a new testing framework added? * **How?** How does the code now determine and print which APIs support KASan? * **Assumes Knowledge:** It assumes the reviewer knows what KASan is and why these tests are important. **How to Improve:** 1. **Start with the "Why":** Begin by explaining the motivation behind the change. For example: * "This PR enhances KASan testing by providing a clear overview of supported libc memory APIs." * "To improve KASan diagnostics, this change introduces a mechanism to identify and report which memory APIs are effectively monitored." 2. **Describe the Change:** Clearly state what was modified: * "Added a new test suite that systematically exercises KASan instrumentation for different libc memory APIs." * "Modified the existing KASan test framework to print the results of each API test." 3. **Explain the "How":** Provide a concise explanation of the technical implementation: * "The test suite iterates through a list of memory APIs, triggering potential KASan violations for each one. Results are then printed to the console." 4. **Contextualize Test Results:** Instead of just listing results, connect them to the change: * "With this change, we can now confirm that most libc memory APIs are correctly monitored by KASan, as shown in the test output below." **Example of an Improved Summary:** "This PR improves KASan diagnostics by introducing a mechanism to identify and report which libc memory APIs are effectively monitored. It adds a new test suite that systematically triggers potential KASan violations for each API and then prints the results. This allows developers to quickly identify any gaps in KASan's coverage. Initial testing confirms that the majority of libc memory APIs are correctly instrumented by KASan." **Addressing other sections:** * **Impact:** While you state "None," this seems unlikely. Consider: * Does this add new configuration options? * Does it increase the size of the NuttX build (even slightly)? * Does it affect execution time of tests or other parts of NuttX? * **Testing:** * Specify the OS, CPU, compiler, and versions used for your build host. * Provide the architecture, board, and configuration used for your target. * Instead of full logs, include relevant snippets that clearly show the changes made by your PR. By providing a clear, concise, and informative PR summary, you significantly increase the chances of your contribution being reviewed and merged quickly. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
