Do Coding Agents Understand Why Systems Crash---and Why They Don't?

Chenxi Huang, Haonan Wang, Jinghe Zhang +7

Coding agents are increasingly capable of fixing real-world bugs, yet they still struggle with large systems codebases such as the Linux kernel. To understand why, we test how agen…

KGym: A Platform and Dataset to Benchmark Large Language Models on Linux Kernel Crash Resolution

Alex Mathai, Chenxi Huang, Petros Maniatis +4

Large Language Models (LLMs) are consistently improving at increasingly realistic software engineering (SE) tasks. In real-world software stacks, significant SE effort is spent dev…
