Fix Bugs in C Program
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have an existing C code-base that needs a careful pass to identify and eliminate outstanding bugs. The focus is strictly on bug fixes—no new features or UI work—so I expect you to dive straight into debugging, refactor only where stability demands it, and leave the overall architecture intact.
You will probably lean on gcc/clang, gdb, Valgrind, or similar static-analysis tools to trace memory leaks, segmentation faults, or logic mishaps. Clear, well-commented changes are essential so I can follow exactly what was adjusted and why.
Deliverables
• Updated source files that compile cleanly on a standard POSIX toolchain
• A concise changelog outlining each bug fixed and the reasoning behind the solution
• Brief usage notes if any command-line arguments or build flags needed to change
I will run my existing test cases plus a few edge-case scenarios; acceptance is complete once everything builds without warnings and all tests pass.
