+= Using clang for static analysis =
+
+LLVM/Clang comes with a static analyzer that can be used to generate web-based analysis reports for many bug categories.
+
+== Prerequistities ==
+
+Make sure the analyzer is installed on your system. On Fedora 24 the package is called clang-analyzer. Also make sure you have web browser installed.
+
+== Running the analysis ==
+
+Configure HelenOS for e.g. amd64 and in the HelenOS source root directory run the following command:
+
+{{{
+$ scan-build make PROFILE=amd64
+}}}
+
+This should kick off the static analysis process and result in a message like the following:
+
+{{{
+scan-build: 121 bugs found.
+scan-build: Run 'scan-view /tmp/scan-build-2016-07-18-210821-13060-1' to examine bug reports.
+}}}
+
+== Inspecting the results ==
+
+When the analysis run is finished, one can inspect the result by the following command (assuming the output above):
+
+{{{
+$ scan-view /tmp/scan-build-2016-07-18-210821-13060-1
+Starting scan-view at: http://127.0.0.1:8181
+  Use Ctrl-C to exit.
+Created new window in existing browser session.
+}}}
+
+Now you should be able to inspect the results in your web browser:
