libopenmpt fuzz suite
=====================
In this directory, you can find the necessary tools for fuzzing libopenmpt with
the American Fuzzy Lop fuzzer (afl++).
Contents:
* `all_formats.dict`: A dictionary containing magic bytes from all supported
module formats to make the life of the fuzzer a bit easier.
* `fuzz-main.sh`: Script to launch the main fuzzing process. If you want to
use just one fuzzer instance, run this one.
* `fuzz-secondary[1|2].sh`: Scripts to launch the secondary fuzzing process. It
is recommended to run at least two fuzzer instances, as the deterministic and
random fuzz mode have been found to complement each other really well. The two
scripts are set up to use different exploration strategies
* `fuzz-settings.sh`: Set up your preferences and afl settings here before the
first run.
* `fuzz.c`: A tiny C program that is used by the fuzzer to test libopenmpt.
* `get-afl.sh`: A simple script to obtain the latest version of afl++.
You can also make it download from a specific branch or tag, e.g.
`GET_AFL_VERSION=stable ./get-afl.sh` to download the latest stable but
unreleased code.
Prerequisites
=============
* [afl++](https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus) - the makefile expects
this to be installed in `contrib/fuzzing/afl`, as it is automatically done by
the `get-afl.sh` install script.
* Clang with LLVM dev headers (llvm-config needs to be installed).
afl also works with gcc, but our makefile has been set up to make use of afl's
faster LLVM-LTO mode.
How to use
==========
* Run `get-afl.sh`, or manually extract afl to `contrib/fuzzing/afl`, use
`make source-only` to build. If building fails because `llvm-config` cannot be
found, try prepending `LLVM_CONFIG=/usr/bin/llvm-config-12` or similar, and
read the afl manual.
* Build libopenmpt with the `build.sh` script in this directory.
* Set up `fuzz-settings.sh` to your taste. Most importantly, you will have to
specify the input directory for first use.
The default setup mounts a tmpfs folder for all temporary files. You may
change this behaviour if you do not have root privileges.
* Run `fuzz-main.sh` for the first (deterministic) instance of afl-fuzz.
* For a "secondary" instance to run on another core, run `fuzz-secondary1.sh`
and/or `fuzz-secondary2.sh`.
* If you want to make use of even more cores, create more copies
`fuzz-secondary2.sh` and adjust "infile03" / "fuzzer03" to
"infile04" / "fuzzer04" and so o (they need to be unique). Try variying the
fuzzing strategey (the -p parameter) to get results more quickly.
