+# AFL++ drivers
+
+## aflpp_driver
+
+aflpp_driver is used to compile directly libfuzzer `LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput()`
+targets.
+
+Just do `afl-clang-fast++ -o fuzz fuzzer_harness.cc libAFLDriver.a [plus
+required linking]`.
+
+You can also sneakily do this little trick: If this is the clang compile command
+to build for libfuzzer: `clang++ -o fuzz -fsanitize=fuzzer fuzzer_harness.cc
+-lfoo`, then just switch `clang++` with `afl-clang-fast++` and our compiler will
+magically insert libAFLDriver.a :)
+
+To use shared-memory test cases, you need nothing to do. To use stdin test
+cases, give `-` as the only command line parameter. To use file input test
+cases, give `@@` as the only command line parameter.
+
+IMPORTANT: if you use `afl-cmin` or `afl-cmin.bash`, then either pass `-` or
+`@@` as command line parameters.
+
+## aflpp_qemu_driver
+
+Note that you can use the driver too for FRIDA mode (`-O`).
+
+aflpp_qemu_driver is used for libfuzzer `LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput()` targets that
+are to be fuzzed in QEMU mode. So compile them with clang/clang++, without
+-fsantize=fuzzer or afl-clang-fast, and link in libAFLQemuDriver.a:
+
+`clang++ -o fuzz fuzzer_harness.cc libAFLQemuDriver.a [plus required linking]`.
+
+Then just do (where the name of the binary is `fuzz`):
+
+```
+AFL_QEMU_PERSISTENT_ADDR=0x$(nm fuzz | grep "T LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput" | awk '{print $1}')
+AFL_QEMU_PERSISTENT_HOOK=/path/to/aflpp_qemu_driver_hook.so afl-fuzz -Q ... -- ./fuzz`
+```
+
+if you use afl-cmin or `afl-showmap -C` with the aflpp_qemu_driver you need to
+set the set same AFL_QEMU_... (or AFL_FRIDA_...) environment variables. If you
+want to use afl-showmap (without -C) or afl-cmin.bash, then you may not set
+these environment variables and rather set `AFL_QEMU_DRIVER_NO_HOOK=1`. \ No newline at end of file
