rv/include: Add deterministic automata monitor definition via C macros

2022-07-30T18:01:28Z

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: Linux +----- RV Monitor ----------------------------------+ Formal Realm | | Realm +-------------------+ +----------------+ +-----------------+ | Linux kernel | | Monitor | | Reference | | Tracing | -> | Instance(s) | <- | Model | | (instrumentation) | | (verification) | | (specification) | +-------------------+ +----------------+ +-----------------+ | | | | V | | +----------+ | | | Reaction | | | +--+--+--+-+ | | | | | | | | | +-> trace output ? | +------------------------|--|----------------------+ | +----> panic ? +-------> Add the rv/da_monitor.h, enabling automatic code generation for the *Monitor Instance(s)* using C macros, and code to support it. The benefits of the usage of macro for monitor synthesis are 3-fold as it: - Reduces the code duplication; - Facilitates the bug fix/improvement; - 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: - DECLARE_DA_MON_GLOBAL(name, type) - DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_CPU(name, type) - DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_TASK(name, type) The first declares the functions for a global deterministic automata monitor, the second for monitors with per-cpu instances, and the third with per-task instances.

rv/include: Add helper functions for deterministic automata

2022-07-30T18:01:28Z

Formally, a deterministic automaton, denoted by G, is defined as a quintuple: G = { X, E, f, x_0, X_m } where: - X is the set of states; - E is the finite set of events; - x_0 is the initial state; - X_m (subset of X) is the set of marked states. - f : X x E -> X $ is the transition function. It defines the state transition in the occurrence of a event from E in the state X. In the special case of deterministic automata, the occurrence of the event in E in a state in X has a deterministic next state from X. An automaton can also be represented using a graphical format of vertices (nodes) and edges. The open-source tool Graphviz can produce this graphic format using the (textual) DOT language as the source code. 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. This header file implements helper functions to facilitate the usage of the C output from dot2c/k for monitoring.
