About libhostile

“What if I tossed small pox into a room filled with sprinters after filling their water cups with red bull.”

Brian Aker

Libhostile is a lightweight library to be used with LD_PRELOAD which will intentially break certain libc calls at various intervals. Specifically designed to cause random failures in network functions and memory allocation.

The tool was originally designed by Data Differential as part of Gearman but is now being continued as an independent project maintained by Andrew Hutchings.
