But new tools should not suck! :-) So, going from the description at: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CACT4Y+Ym0TZLkmRrM0ZGgLpu8kqS-YjoWTMrvaLz=tx2tny...@mail.gmail.com I now have it built, and created $GOPATH/src/github.com/google/syzkaller/perf.cfg with: triton:~/go/src/github.com/google/syzkaller> cat perf.cfg { "http": "localhost:50000", "workdir": "/home/mingo/go/src/github.com/google/syzkaller/workdir", "syzkaller": "/home/mingo/go/src/github.com/google/syzkaller", "vmlinux": "-", "type": "local", "count": 1, "procs": 16, "nocover": true, "nodropprivs": true, "enable_syscalls": [ "getpid", "perf_event_open", "ioctl$PERF*", "prctl$void", "bpf$*", "sched_yield" ] } Then I tried to do: $ bin/syz-manager -config perf.cfg in ~/go/src/github.com/google/syzkaller, but that doesn't work because there's no 'bin' directory: triton:~/go/src/github.com/google/syzkaller> bin/syz-manager -config perf.cfg bash: bin/syz-manager: No such file or directory So that should really read something like: cd ~/go bin/syz-manager -config src/github.com/google/syzkaller/perf.cfg next roadblock: fomalhaut:~/go> bin/syz-manager -config src/github.com/google/syzkaller/perf.cfg 2016/03/08 16:53:44 bad config syzkaller param: can't find bin/syz-fuzzer so how do I proceed from here?
