[RFC V3 04/20] rv/include: Add deterministic automata monitor definition via C macros

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In Linux terms, the runtime verification monitors are encapsulated
inside the "RV monitor" abstraction. The "RV monitor" includes a set
of instances of the monitor (per-cpu monitor, per-task monitor, and
so on), the helper functions that glue the monitor to the system
reference model, and the trace output as a reaction for event parsing
and exceptions, as depicted below:

The dot2c tool presented in this paper:

DE OLIVEIRA, Daniel Bristot; CUCINOTTA, Tommaso; DE OLIVEIRA, Romulo
Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.

Translates a deterministic automaton in the DOT format into a C
source code representation that to be used for monitoring connecting
the Formal Reaml to Linux-like code.

This header file goes beyond, extending the code generation to the
verification stage, generating the code to the Monitor Instance(s)
level using C macros. The trace event code inspires this approach.

The benefits of the usage of macro for monitor synthesis is 3-fold:

	- Reduces the code duplication;
	- Facilitates the bug fix/improvement;
	(but mainly:)
	- Avoids the case of developers changing the core of the monitor
	  code to manipulate the model in a (let's say) non-standard
	  way.

This initial implementation presents three different types of monitor
instances:

	- #define DECLARE_DA_MON_GLOBAL(name, type)
	- #define DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_CPU(name, type)
	- #define DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_TASK(name, type)

The first declares the functions for a global deterministic automata
monitor, the second with per-cpu instances, and the third with
per-task instances.

In all cases, the name is a string that identifies the monitor,
and the type is the data type used by dot2c/k on the representation
of the model.

For example, the model "wip" below:

                     preempt_disable                       sched_waking
   +############+ >------------------> +################+ >------------+
 -># preemptive #                      # non-preemptive #              |
   +############+ <-----------------<  +################+ <------------+
                    preempt_enable

with two states and three events can be stored in a 'char' type.
Considering that the preemption control is a per-cpu behavior, the
monitor declaration will be:

  DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_CPU(wip, char);

The monitor is executed by sending events to be processed via the
functions presented below:

  da_handle_event_$(MONITOR_NAME)($(event from event enum));
  da_handle_init_event_$(MONITOR_NAME)($(event from event enum));

The function da_handle_event_$(MONITOR_NAME) is the regular case,
while the function da_handle_init_event_$(MONITOR_NAME)() is a
special case used to synchronize the system with the model.

When a monitor is enabled, it is placed in the initial state of the
automata. However, the monitor does not know if the system is in
the initial state. Hence, the monitor ignores events sent by
sent by da_handle_event_$(MONITOR_NAME) until the function
da_handle_init_event_$(MONITOR_NAME)() is called.

The function da_handle_init_event_$(MONITOR_NAME)() should be used for
the case in which the system generates the event is the one that returns
the automata to the initial state.

After receiving a da_handle_init_event_$(MONITOR_NAME)() event, the
monitor will know that it is in sync with the system and hence will
start processing the next events.

Using the wip model as example, the events "preempt_disable" and
"sched_waking" should be sent to monitor, respectively, via:
        da_handle_event_wip(preempt_disable);
        da_handle_event_wip(sched_waking);

While the event "preempt_enabled" will use:
        da_handle_init_event_wip(preempt_enable);

To notify the monitor that the system will be returning to the initial
state, so the system and the monitor should be in sync.

With the monitor synthesis in place, using these headers and dot2k,
the developer's work should be limited to the instrumentation of
the system, increasing the confidence in the overall approach.
