Tweede Golf, in collaboration with Microsoft under the Open Device Partnership, has released the Call Graph Analyzer (CGA), a Rust tool that extracts call graphs from monomorphized MIR to identify functions capable of panicking in compiled binaries. The blog post explains how the tool works and evaluates its advantages and disadvantages compared to existing panic-detection approaches.
Background
Rust's panic mechanism is a critical concern for embedded and safety-critical software where unrecoverable errors can have serious consequences. Static analysis tools that help developers identify potential panic sites are increasingly valuable in the Rust embedded ecosystem.
