Detailed Description

A framework for implementing small-step operational semantics. Each instance is good for one small-step evaluation.

Though this inherits from the compiler's visitor framework, it's not really a visitor. It just leverages the framework to obtain multiple dispatch on IR nodes. Implementations should override the preorder methods for those nodes whose evaluation they support and place the result of the evaluation in result.

Member Function Documentation

◆ checkMemberInvariant()

void P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::checkMemberInvariant ( const IR::Node * node)
staticprotected

Checks our assumption that chains of Member expressions terminate in a PathExpression. Throws a BUG if node is not a chain of one or more Member expressions terminating in a PathExpression. if node is local variable then returns created member for it.

◆ declareBaseType()

void P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::declareBaseType ( ExecutionState & nextState,
const IR::StateVariable & paramPath,
const IR::Type_Base * baseType ) const
protected

This is a helper function to declare base type variables. Because all variables need to be a member in the execution state environment, this helper function suffixes a "*".

◆ declareStructLike()

void P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::declareStructLike ( ExecutionState & nextState,
const IR::StateVariable & parentExpr,
bool forceTaint = false ) const
protected

This is a helper function to declare structlike data structures. This also is used to declare the members of a stack. This function is primarily used by the Declaration_Variable preorder function.

◆ evaluateExpression()

const IR::Literal * P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::evaluateExpression ( const IR::Expression * expr,
std::optional< const IR::Expression * > cond ) const
protected

Evaluates an expression by invoking the solver under the current collected constraints. Optionally, a condition can be provided that is temporarily added to the list of assertions. If the solver can find a solution, it

Returns
the assigned value to the expression. If not, this function
nullptr.

◆ getClassName()

virtual std::string P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::getClassName ( )
protectedpure virtual

◆ setHeaderValidity()

void P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::setHeaderValidity ( const IR::StateVariable & headerRef,
bool validity,
ExecutionState & state )
protected

Sets validity for a header if expr is a header. if expr is a part of a header union then it sets invalid for other headers in the union. Otherwise it generates an exception.

◆ setTargetUninitialized()

void P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::setTargetUninitialized ( ExecutionState & nextState,
const IR::StateVariable & ref,
bool forceTaint ) const
protected

Reset the given reference to an uninitialized value. If the reference has a Type_StructLike, unroll the reference and reset each member. If forceTaint is active, all references are set tainted. Otherwise a target-specific mechanism is used.

◆ step()

AbstractStepper::Result P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::step ( const IR::Node * node)

Steps on the given node. This is the main entry point into a stepper.

The given node is assumed to be derived from the command at the top of the current continuation body. No checks are done to enforce this assumption.

◆ stepGetHeaderValidity()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepGetHeaderValidity ( const IR::StateVariable & headerRef)
protected

Transition function for isValid calls.

Parameters
headerRefthe header instance whose validity is being queried. Arguments must be either Members or PathExpressions.
Returns
false

◆ stepSetHeaderValidity()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepSetHeaderValidity ( const IR::StateVariable & headerRef,
bool validity )
protected

Transition function for setValid and setInvalid calls.

Parameters
headerRefthe header instance being set valid or invalid. This is either a Member or a PathExpression.
validitythe validity state being assigned to the header instance.
Returns
false

◆ stepStackPushPopFront()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepStackPushPopFront ( const IR::Expression * stackRef,
const IR::Vector< IR::Argument > * args,
bool isPush = true )
protected

Transition function for push_front/pop_front calls.

Parameters
stackRefthe stack begin push_front/pop_front. This is either a Member or a PathExpression.
argsthe list of arguments being passed to method.
isPushis true for push_front and false otherwise.
Returns
false

◆ stepSymbolicValue()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepSymbolicValue ( const IR::Node * expr)
protected

Transition function for a symbolic value. Expressions in the metalanguage include P4 non-expressions. Because of this, the given node does not necessarily need to be an instance of IR::Expression.

Returns
false

◆ stepToException()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepToException ( Continuation::Exception exception)
protected

Transitions to an exception.

Returns
false

◆ stepToListSubexpr()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepToListSubexpr ( const IR::BaseListExpression * subexpr,
SmallStepEvaluator::Result & result,
const ExecutionState & state,
std::function< const Continuation::Command(const IR::BaseListExpression *)> rebuildCmd )
staticprotected

Transitions to a subexpression of the topmost command in the current continuation body. The subexpression is expected to be a ListExpression. This is a specialized version of stepToSubExpr that can be used in contexts that explicitly expect a ListExpression instead of a generic Expression.

Parameters
rebuildCmdRebuilds the command containing the subexpression by replacing @subexpr with the given list expression.
Returns
false

◆ stepToStructSubexpr()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepToStructSubexpr ( const IR::StructExpression * subexpr,
SmallStepEvaluator::Result & result,
const ExecutionState & state,
std::function< const Continuation::Command(const IR::StructExpression *)> rebuildCmd )
staticprotected
See also
stepToListSubexpr.IR::StructExpression differs slightly from IR::BaseListExpression in that the components are IR::NamedExpression instead of just IR::Expression. To keep things simple, and to avoid excessive type casting, these two functions are kept separate.

◆ stepToSubexpr()

bool P4Tools::P4Testgen::AbstractStepper::stepToSubexpr ( const IR::Expression * subexpr,
SmallStepEvaluator::Result & result,
const ExecutionState & state,
std::function< const Continuation::Command(const Continuation::Parameter *)> rebuildCmd )
staticprotected

Transitions to a subexpression of the topmost command in the current continuation body.

Parameters
rebuildCmdRebuilds the command containing the subexpression by replacing @subexpr with the given parameter.
Returns
false
