A Tool for Detecting First Races in OpenMP Programs

초록

First race detection is especially important for effective debugging, because the removal of such races may make other affected races disappear. The previous tools can not guarantee that detected races are the first races to occur. We present a new tool to detect first races in a program with nested parallelism using a two-pass on-the-fly technique. To show accuracy, we empirically compare our tool with previous tools using a set of synthetic programs with OpenMP directives.
