Abstract
A method for analyzing code may include determining, using a dependency graph for the code, modules each including function definitions, and generating source points-to tuples and a call graph for a source function definition in a first module. The source points-to tuples may include a source tuple including a source variable and a source allocation site. The source allocation site may be a reference to a location in a memory of a computer system allocated when the source function definition is executed. The method may further include determining, using the call graph and until a fixedpoint condition is triggered, target function definitions reachable from the source function definition, determining that a target summary is stored for a first target function definition, and importing the target summary into a source summary for the source function definition. The source summary may include the source points-to tuples.
