Documentation

If you want to build the documentation yourself go into doc and invoke doxygen:

cd doc && doxygen doxygen.config

We are looking for self-motivated PhD students and we welcome industry collaboration/sponsorship to improve SVF (Please contact yulei.sui@uts.edu.au if you are interested)




SVF is a source code analysis tool that enables interprocedural dependence analysis for LLVM-based languages. SVF is able to perform pointer alias analysis, memory SSA form construction, value-flow tracking for program variables and memory error checking.

Introducing SVF -- what it does and how we design it A step by step setup guide to build SVF Command-line options to run SVF, get analysis outputs, and test SVF with an example or PTABen Detailed technical documentation and how to write your own analyses in SVF or use SVF as a lib for your tool


We release SVF source code in the hope of benefiting others. You are kindly asked to acknowledge usage of the tool by citing some of our publications listed http://svf-tools.github.io/SVF, especially the following two:
