Applying Transactional Memory for Concurrency-Bug Failure Recovery in Production Runs

Concurrency bugs widely exist and severely threaten system availability. Techniques that help recover from concurrency-bug failures during production runs are highly desired. This paper proposes BugTM, an approach that applies transactional memory techniques for concurrency-bug recovery in production runs. Requiring no knowledge about where are concurrency bugs, BugTM uses static analysis and code...
