PVS-Studio Analyzer Spots 40 Bugs In the FreeBSD Kernel

[Roger Marquis]

In light of recently found kernel anomalies[1][2] and considering the
FBI's reckless effort to force Apple to build an iPhone backdoor[3] it
would only be prudent to consider the risk of less transparent efforts by
our three and four letter agencies (and NGOs) targeting our FOSS.
Towards that goal I'm wondering if FreeBSD base has ever been analyzed
for patterns of suspicious commits[4]?
