It was great to be able to chat with an LLVMer in my home town :) Also thank you for bringing the Swedish snow with you!

The #LLVM developer room is back at #FOSDEM , on January 31st!

I'm excited about the variety in topics covered, from hardware generation using mlir/llvm to C/C++ repls.

Come join us either in-person in Brussels, or online through the live-feed which will be available at fosdem.org/2026/schedul...

If you ever wanted a textbook-style guide to memory safety bugs, undefined behavior, exploit mitigations, side channels, etc.

Big thanks to Tarcisio Fisher for adding a new section on Use-After-Free (UaF) in the Low Level Software Security Book!

Check it out: llsoftsec.github.io/llsoftsecboo...

We’d love your thoughts — comment here or open an issue github.com/llsoftsec/ll...

We just significantly improved the explanation of control-flow integrity (CFI) in the Low Level Software Security Book, see llsoftsec.github.io/llsoftsecboo...
