A model of LLVM IR concurrency based on Choice Trees

Overview

This Rocq development makes use of Choice Trees to formalize the semantics of a subset of LLVM IR focused on concurrency.

  • Some parts of this project, especially in src/lang.v, are adapted from the Vellvm project.

Build instructions

Requirements: opam, the OCaml Package Manager (https://opam.ocaml.org/doc/Install.html)

The following instructions create a new opam switch for this development, and switch to it. Type opam switch to get a list of switches and switch back to another one.

# install dependencies
opam update
opam switch create micro-vellvm-concurrency ocaml-base-compiler
eval $(opam env --switch=micro-vellvm-concurrency)
opam repo add coq-released https://coq.inria.fr/opam/released
opam update
opam install coq.8.19.1 coq-ext-lib.0.12.1 coq-itree.5.2.0 coq-mmaps.1.1 coq-relation-algebra.1.7.10 coq-coinduction.1.9
cd ctrees-concurrent-memory # if not already in this directory
# install ctrees
git clone -b jfp https://github.com/vellvm/ctrees.git
cd ctrees
git checkout 61428ec4dbc0bb82f91176e54f99bef52f9fd417
opam pin .
# build this project
cd ../src
coq_makefile -f _CoqProject -o Makefile
make
dune build # only for extracted OCaml code

The last command produces a binary src/_build/default/main.exe that runs the collecting interpreter on a few litmus tests.

Axioms

There are no admitted theorems in our development.

We inherit from a technical issue from the ctree library: we had to Unset Universe Checking because some theorems from the CTrees library require it. The issue stems from incompatible imports of libraries, notably the Interaction Trees and Relational Algebras ones. The root of the problem goes deep: Rocq's standard library relies on so-called Template Polymorphisms for ubiqutous definitions such as the sum or product of types. The problem is a fundamental one, that calls for changes on Rocq's theory itself (see: https://coq.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/237977-Coq-users/topic/Status.20of.20universe.20polymorphism.3F ), hence why this unsatisfactory situation stands at the moment. Naturally, the soundness of our results are in no way challenged by this problem: exploiting a soundness leak by unsetting the universe checker locally for a development such as ours would require active malign action.
