Goblint is a static analyzer based on the theory of abstract interpretation. It specializes in the verification of the absence of concurrency bugs such as data races[1], but also reports other potential programming errors such as integer overflows, buffer overruns, or null-pointer dereferences. It targets (concurrent) C programs employing the pthreads concurrency model.

The architecture of Goblint is modular, i.e., new analyses can be added by specifying their transfer functions and the abstract domain to be used. Different analyses can communicate via a query system.[2]

Development

Goblint is developed at the University of Tartu and at the TUM Department of Informatics under an Open Source license. It is implemented in OCaml and uses CIL as its compiler frontend.[2]

SV-Comp

The tool has participated in the Software Verification Competition (SV-Comp) held as part of TACAS since 2021.[3] [4]
