Semantics of type-dependent operations


Semantics of casts. sem_cast v1 t1 t2 = Some v2 if value v1, viewed with static type t1, can be cast to type t2, resulting in value v2.

Interpretation of values as truth values. Non-zero integers, non-zero floats and non-null pointers are considered as true. The integer zero (which also represents the null pointer) and the float 0.0 are false.

  | _, _ => None
  end.

The following sem_ functions compute the result of an operator application. Since operators are overloaded, the result depends both on the static types of the arguments and on their run-time values. For binary operations, the "usual binary conversions", adapted to a 32-bit platform, state that:

Operational semantics


The semantics uses two environments. The global environment maps names of functions and global variables to memory block references, and function pointers to their definitions. (See module Globalenvs.)

Definition genv := Genv.t fundef type.

The local environment maps local variables to block references and types. The current value of the variable is stored in the associated memory block.

Definition env := PTree.t (block * type).

Definition empty_env: env := (PTree.empty (block * type)).

deref_loc ty m b ofs t v computes the value of a datum of type ty residing in memory m at block b, offset ofs. If the type ty indicates an access by value, the corresponding memory load is performed. If the type ty indicates an access by reference, the pointer Vptr b ofs is returned. v is the value returned, and t the trace of observables (nonempty if this is a volatile access).

Inductive deref_loc {F V: Type} (ge: Genv.t F V) (ty: type) (m: mem) (b: block) (ofs: int) : trace -> val -> Prop :=
  | deref_loc_value: forall chunk v,
      access_mode ty = By_value chunk ->
      type_is_volatile ty = false ->
      Mem.loadv chunk m (Vptr b ofs) = Some v ->
      deref_loc ge ty m b ofs E0 v
  | deref_loc_volatile: forall chunk t v,
      access_mode ty = By_value chunk -> type_is_volatile ty = true ->
      volatile_load ge chunk m b ofs t v ->
      deref_loc ge ty m b ofs t v
  | deref_loc_reference:
      access_mode ty = By_reference ->
      deref_loc ge ty m b ofs E0 (Vptr b ofs)
  | deref_loc_copy:
      access_mode ty = By_copy ->
      deref_loc ge ty m b ofs E0 (Vptr b ofs).

Symmetrically, assign_loc ty m b ofs v t m' returns the memory state after storing the value v in the datum of type ty residing in memory m at block b, offset ofs. This is allowed only if ty indicates an access by value or by copy. m' is the updated memory state and t the trace of observables (nonempty if this is a volatile store).

Inductive assign_loc {F V: Type} (ge: Genv.t F V) (ty: type) (m: mem) (b: block) (ofs: int):
                                            val -> trace -> mem -> Prop :=
  | assign_loc_value: forall v chunk m',
      access_mode ty = By_value chunk ->
      type_is_volatile ty = false ->
      Mem.storev chunk m (Vptr b ofs) v = Some m' ->
      assign_loc ge ty m b ofs v E0 m'
  | assign_loc_volatile: forall v chunk t m',
      access_mode ty = By_value chunk -> type_is_volatile ty = true ->
      volatile_store ge chunk m b ofs v t m' ->
      assign_loc ge ty m b ofs v t m'
  | assign_loc_copy: forall b' ofs' bytes m',
      access_mode ty = By_copy ->
      (alignof ty | Int.unsigned ofs') -> (alignof ty | Int.unsigned ofs) ->
      b' <> b \/ Int.unsigned ofs' = Int.unsigned ofs
              \/ Int.unsigned ofs' + sizeof ty <= Int.unsigned ofs
              \/ Int.unsigned ofs + sizeof ty <= Int.unsigned ofs' ->
      Mem.loadbytes m b' (Int.unsigned ofs') (sizeof ty) = Some bytes ->
      Mem.storebytes m b (Int.unsigned ofs) bytes = Some m' ->
      assign_loc ge ty m b ofs (Vptr b' ofs') E0 m'.

Allocation of function-local variables. alloc_variables e1 m1 vars e2 m2 allocates one memory block for each variable declared in vars, and associates the variable name with this block. e1 and m1 are the initial local environment and memory state. e2 and m2 are the final local environment and memory state.

Inductive alloc_variables: env -> mem ->
                           list (ident * type) ->
                           env -> mem -> Prop :=
  | alloc_variables_nil:
      forall e m,
      alloc_variables e m nil e m
  | alloc_variables_cons:
      forall e m id ty vars m1 b1 m2 e2,
      Mem.alloc m 0 (sizeof ty) = (m1, b1) ->
      alloc_variables (PTree.set id (b1, ty) e) m1 vars e2 m2 ->
      alloc_variables e m ((id, ty) :: vars) e2 m2.

Initialization of local variables that are parameters to a function. bind_parameters e m1 params args m2 stores the values args in the memory blocks corresponding to the variables params. m1 is the initial memory state and m2 the final memory state.

Inductive bind_parameters {F V: Type} (ge: Genv.t F V) (e: env):

Reduction semantics for expressions


Section EXPR.

Variable e: env.

The semantics of expressions follows the popular Wright-Felleisen style. It is a small-step semantics that reduces one redex at a time. We first define head reductions (at the top of an expression, then use reduction contexts to define reduction within an expression.

Head reduction for l-values.

Inductive lred: expr -> mem -> expr -> mem -> Prop :=
  | red_var_local: forall x ty m b,
      e!x = Some(b, ty) ->
      lred (Evar x ty) m

  | red_field_union: forall b ofs id fList a f ty m,
      lred (Efield (Eval (Vptr b ofs) (Tunion id fList a)) f ty) m
           (Eloc b ofs ty) m.

Reduction contexts. In accordance with C's nondeterministic semantics, we allow reduction both to the left and to the right of a binary operator. To enforce C's notion of sequence point, reductions within a conditional a ? b : c can only take place in a, not in b nor c; and reductions within a sequence a, b can only take place in a, not in b. Reduction contexts are represented by functions C from expressions to expressions, suitably constrained by the context from to C predicate below. Contexts are "kinded" with respect to l-values and r-values: from is the kind of the hole in the context and to is the kind of the term resulting from filling the hole.

In a nondeterministic semantics, expressions can go wrong according to one reduction order while being defined according to another. Consider for instance (x = 1) + (10 / x) where x is initially 0. This expression goes wrong if evaluated right-to-left, but is defined if evaluated left-to-right. Since our compiler is going to pick one particular evaluation order, we must make sure that all orders are safe, i.e. never evaluate a subexpression that goes wrong. Being safe is a stronger requirement than just not getting stuck during reductions. Consider f() + (10 / x), where f() does not terminate. This expression is never stuck because the evaluation of f() can make infinitely many transitions. Yet it contains a subexpression 10 / x that can go wrong if x = 0, and the compiler may choose to evaluate 10 / x first, before calling f(). Therefore, we must make sure that not only an expression cannot get stuck, but none of its subexpressions can either. We say that a subexpression is not immediately stuck if it is a value (of the appropriate kind) or it can reduce (at head or within).

  | imm_safe_val: forall v ty m,

Whole-program semantics


Execution of whole programs are described as sequences of transitions from an initial state to a final state. An initial state is a Callstate corresponding to the invocation of the ``main'' function of the program without arguments and with an empty continuation.

Inductive initial_state (p: program): state -> Prop :=
  | initial_state_intro: forall b f m0,
      let ge := Genv.globalenv p in
      Genv.init_mem p = Some m0 ->
      Genv.find_symbol ge p.(prog_main) = Some b ->
      Genv.find_funct_ptr ge b = Some f ->
      type_of_fundef f = Tfunction Tnil type_int32s ->
      initial_state p (Callstate f nil Kstop m0).

A final state is a Returnstate with an empty continuation.

Inductive final_state: state -> int -> Prop :=
  | final_state_intro: forall r m,
      final_state (Returnstate (Vint r) Kstop m) r.

Wrapping up these definitions in a small-step semantics.

Definition semantics (p: program) :=
  Semantics step (initial_state p) final_state (Genv.globalenv p).

This semantics has the single-event property.

Lemma semantics_single_events:
  forall p, single_events (semantics p).

  assert (ASSIGN: forall chunk m b ofs t v m', assign_loc ge chunk m b ofs v t m' -> (length t <= 1)%nat).
