Summary:
This is collaboration between Marcel Boehme @ Monash, Australia and Valentin Manès plus Sang Kil Cha @ KAIST, South Korea.
We have made a few modifications to boost LibFuzzer performance by changing how weights are assigned to the seeds in the corpus. Essentially, seeds that reveal more "information" about globally rare features are assigned a higher weight. Our results on the Fuzzer Test Suite seem quite promising. In terms of bug finding, our Entropic patch usually finds the same errors much faster and in more runs. In terms of coverage, our version Entropic achieves the same coverage in less than half the time for the majority of subjects. For the lack of space, we shared more detailed performance results directly with @kcc. We'll publish the preprint with all the technical details as soon as it is accepted. Happy to share if you drop us an email.
There should be plenty of opportunities to optimise further. For instance, while Entropic achieves the same coverage in less than half the time, Entropic has a much lower #execs per second. We ran the perf-tool and found a few performance bottlenecks.
Thanks for open-sourcing LibFuzzer (and the entire LLVM Compiler Infrastructure)! This has been such a tremendous help to my research.

Summary:
The number of "inputs have the Data Flow Trace" cannot be greater than
the number of inputs touching the focus function. The existing message is rather
confusing as the same log would mention a greater total number of traces a few
lines above.

Summary:
Avoids an MSan false positive if the SIGINT comes while the user
callback is running. The false positive happens when the interrupt
handler calls opendir() to remove some temporary files, which is
intercepted by MSan.

Summary:
In case the current corpus input doesn't have bytes going into the
focus function, MutateWithMask is useless and may fail gently, allowing the
default mutation routine happen, rather than crashing on an assertion.
