[cfe-dev] Tackling open project - BitwiseMaskingChecker

[יהודה שפירא via cfe-dev]

I have been working on the llvm project - more on the backend and I want to
get more familiarized with the clang and especially with the static
analyzer project.
So I want to try and tackle one of the open projects that listed in the
site http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/open_projects.html.
I want to start with something simple, and so I was thinking about working
on the BitwiseMaskingChecker  (PR16615
<http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=16615>) unless you think it not a
good start.
I understand that bitwise reasoning is missing, but should it be in a
checker ? Isn't that suppose to be in the "BitwiseConstraintManager"
(another open project in the site above).
What am I missing ? What is the purpose of the BitwiseMaskingChecker ? to
check what exactly ?

Regards,
Yehuda.
