Dmitry,
In our hallway conversation at Plumbers we talked about the
functions used for syzbot to control and/or communicate
with the system under test. I wrote them down somewhere, but I
can't find them now.
I believe you said something like "we only use a small number of functions"
(like 4 or so).
Can you tell me what these are, or point to where I can find them in
the syzbot source code?
Just for comparison, Fuego uses the following, which we call our
"transport" APIs:
* cmd - execute a command on the device under test
* put - copy files and/or directories to the device under test
* get - copy files and/or directories from the device under test
And ones that we consider our board management API:
* setup - can be used for provisioning a board or instantiating a vm
* teardown - used for instance destruction (for vms)
* reboot - reboot the device under test
Thanks,
-- Tim
