Documentation unclear

[dmc1778]

Hi,
In this section https://github.com/ise-uiuc/FreeFuzz/tree/main/src/instrumentation/torch and in subsection (3), you mentioned that after configuring our mongo dg in write_tools.py, we should run the code where Pytorch APIs are invoked. I totally understand how this works, my confusion is that where the APIs in "torch.nn.functional.txt", "torch.nn.txt", "torch.txt" come from? How you extracted this APIs?

Also, another confusion is that when I arbitrarily run an API, let say torch.randn(), if torch.randn() is not in the text files ("torch.nn.functional.txt", "torch.nn.txt", "torch.txt"), what happens? I can't get the value space of randn()?

Thanks,
Nima.

Hi @nimashiri, sorry to reply late

where the APIs in "torch.nn.functional.txt", "torch.nn.txt", "torch.txt" come from? How you extracted this APIs?

These APIs come from the documentation of PyTorch, such as https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.functional.html

if torch.randn() is not in the text files

Yes, you cannot get the value space of the API not in the text file

Curently the instrumentation of PyTorch does not cover all public APIs, you can simply add new public APIs like torch.randn() to the text file to trace them.
