Abstract

The chapter introduces Selectx, a new method for selective context-sensitivity in k-CFA, which leverages CFL-reachability to optimize pointer analysis. Selectx systematically selects context-sensitive nodes based on their impact on precision and efficiency, outperforming existing heuristic-based methods. The approach is implemented in Soot and evaluated on popular Java benchmarks, demonstrating significant performance improvements with minimal precision loss. The chapter also discusses challenges and future research directions in scaling k-CFA to large codebases.
Thanks to all the reviewers for their constructive comments. This work is supported by Australian Research Council Grants (DP170103956 and DP180104069).
