For this manual, we assume that you are running Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS. Other distributions or Ubuntu versions might require different packages to be able to perform the setup.
We also assume that you have a copy of SPEC CPU2006 installed in $HOME/cpu2006. If your SPEC install is located somewhere else, adjust the value of PATHSPEC accordingly. If you do not have a copy of SPEC CPU2006, set the environment variable BUILD_SPEC to 0.
If you want to build Firefox, you will need to install the Firefox build prerequisites beforehand. Instructions are found here:
If you do not want to build Firefox, set BUILD_FIREFOX=0.
Follow the following instructions:
sudo apt-get install autoconf bison build-essential git libtool libtool-bin
git clone https://github.com/vusec/typesan.git
cd typesan
PATHSPEC="$HOME/cpu2006" ./autosetup.sh
This sets up TypeSan and instruments all C++ SPEC CPU2006 benchmarks as well as Firefox using all supported configurations:
- default - default compilation without tcmalloc
- baseline - default compilation with uninstrumented tcmalloc
- typesan - typesan instrumented compilation
- typesanbl - typesan instrumented compilation with blacklist
- typesanresid - residual typesan instrumented compilation
To run the microbenchmarks, type:
./run-ubench-typesan.sh
'typesan' can be replaced with any of the other configurations.
To run Firefox, type:
./run-firefox-typesan.sh
'typesan' can be replaced with any of the other configurations.
Please note that Firefox requires a graphical interface, which Ubuntu Server does not offer by default. Ensure access to an X11 server and export the correct value of $DISPLAY before running this script.
To run the microbenchmarks, type:
./run-spec-typesan.sh benchmarks
'typesan' can be replaced with any of the other configurations.
'benchmarks' should be set to one or more of the following:
- 444.namd
- 447.dealII
- 450.soplex
- 453.povray
- 471.omnetpp
- 473.astar
