basic_block is destined to be a view of the CFG, not an essential part of it. The new node is called value_t since node_t is taken. We should find a better name though.

The checker still performs transfer after checking the assertions, but it's only needed in order to find out locations where the invariants becomes bottom, and there are better way to do it. avoiding this should improve performance significantly.

This PR does not complete the transition. For example, there are "Undefined" instructions instead of a NOP on entry and exit.

  • simplify no longer affects the cfg itself. It should be relevant mainly for printing, and possibly as an optimization hint regarding where to keep the results of the fixpoint computation.
  • Assume instructions get special nodes
  • Loop counters get special nodes
  • label_t is moved to a dedicated header. Added a special_label field, allowing distinguishing nodes for loop counters (and potentially jumps to fallthrough). Also, using the default "spaceship" comparison, and exit is not INT_MAX instead of -2.
  • cfg_rev_t is removed.

test-data/loop.yaml (1)

Line range hint 377-398: Consider simplifying post-conditions for large loop test cases.

Based on previous feedback from @Alan-Jowett, post-conditions like r0.svalue>0 and r0.uvalue>0 are not required for large loop test cases. Consider simplifying the post-conditions while maintaining test coverage.

test-data/uninit.yaml (1)

Line range hint 451-550: Fix duplicate atomic XOR test case

The atomic XOR test case uses |= instead of ^= in the instruction. This appears to be a copy-paste error from the atomic OR test case.

Apply this fix:

-    lock *(u64 *)(r1 + 0) |= r5
+    lock *(u64 *)(r1 + 0) ^= r5

src/crab/thresholds.hpp (1)

61-61: LGTM! Verify dependent code updates.

The change from basic_block to value_t aligns with the PR's objective of restructuring the CFG handling.

Let's verify that all callers have been updated:

✅ Verification successful

Let me analyze the search results:

  1. The get_thresholds method is consistently using value_t in both declaration (thresholds.hpp) and definition (thresholds.cpp).
  2. All calls to get_thresholds appear to be within the same files and are using the correct type.
  3. While there are references to basic_block in the codebase, they are in different contexts:
    • In asm_cfg.cpp: Just string literals for statistics
    • In cfg.hpp: Defines basic_block_t which is a different type/concept

Let me verify one more aspect to ensure completeness:


Based on the search results, I can now make a conclusive assessment:

Change from basic_block to value_t is correctly implemented.

The verification shows:

  1. The get_thresholds method is consistently using value_t in both declaration (thresholds.hpp) and implementation (thresholds.cpp).
  2. All calls to get_thresholds are using the correct type.
  3. The remaining basic_block references in the codebase are unrelated:
    • basic_block_t in cfg.hpp is a different class that works alongside value_t
    • Other occurrences are either in string literals or comments

The change aligns with the codebase's architecture where value_t represents nodes in the CFG, while basic_block_t serves a different purpose in the control flow graph implementation.

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

src/crab/label.hpp (1)

61-62: Review the use of INT_MAX for exit label.

Using INT_MAX for the exit label could lead to issues:

  1. It might cause overflow in arithmetic operations
  2. It could conflict with actual instruction indices in very large programs
    Consider using a more explicit sentinel value or a different approach to marking exit nodes.
src/crab_utils/debug.hpp (1)

46-53: Verify error message handling across the codebase.

Since this changes the error message format, we should verify there are no dependencies on the exact format in tests or error handling code.

✅ Verification successful

Let's check the content of the file that mentions error messages and also search for any tests in other directories since the test/ directory doesn't exist.


Based on the analysis of the search results, I can now provide a final response:

No impact on error message dependencies

The changes to the CRAB_ERROR macro format are safe because:

  1. All usages of CRAB_ERROR are for throwing internal errors that are not caught or parsed by any test code
  2. The error messages are used purely for developer debugging and not parsed programmatically
  3. The test files (src/test/*.cpp) do not contain any assertions or parsing of error message formats

src/test/test_wto.cpp (6)

15-15: LGTM! Good modernization of initialization syntax.

The change to brace initialization label_t{i} follows modern C++ best practices for uniform initialization.


19-30: LGTM! Consistent application of the new initialization syntax.

The edge creation maintains the correct graph structure from Bourdoncle's Figure 1 while consistently using the updated label_t initialization syntax.


47-47: LGTM! Consistent with previous changes.

The label_t initialization update is consistently applied in the second test case.


51-58: LGTM! Correct implementation of Figure 2a graph structure.

The edge creation properly implements the graph structure from Bourdoncle's Figure 2a while maintaining consistent use of the new label_t initialization syntax.


75-75: LGTM! Maintains consistency across test cases.

The label_t initialization update is consistently applied in the third test case.


79-85: LGTM! Comprehensive test coverage maintained.

The edge creation properly implements the graph structure from Bourdoncle's Figure 2b while maintaining consistent use of the new label_t initialization syntax. The test suite effectively covers different graph structures and WTO scenarios.

✅ Verification successful

Let me check the actual test cases in the file to verify the coverage.


Let me verify the actual test implementations to ensure they cover different scenarios.


Test coverage is comprehensive and accurate

The test suite effectively covers three distinct graph structures from Bourdoncle's paper:

  • Figure 1: Complex graph with nested components and multiple paths
  • Figure 2a: Graph with overlapping loops
  • Figure 2b: Graph with a single component containing multiple nodes

Each test case properly verifies both the graph construction and the expected WTO output string, maintaining consistent use of the new label_t syntax throughout.

src/crab/var_factory.cpp (1)

7-7: LGTM! Verify header dependencies.

The header change aligns with the PR objective of relocating label_t to a dedicated header file.

Let's verify the header dependencies and potential impacts:

✅ Verification successful

Let me analyze the results:

  1. asm_syntax.hpp is still used in multiple files and now includes crab/label.hpp
  2. label.hpp is used in three files: asm_syntax.hpp, var_factory.cpp, and thresholds.cpp
  3. No circular dependencies detected as label.hpp is included by other files but doesn't include them back

Let me verify one more aspect to ensure the change is safe:


Let me try a different approach to check the contents:


Based on the analysis of the files:

  1. label.hpp is self-contained and only includes necessary standard headers and crab_utils/num_safety.hpp
  2. var_factory.cpp only uses label_t for the STACK_FRAME_DELIMITER constant and doesn't depend on any other types from asm_syntax.hpp
  3. asm_syntax.hpp now includes label.hpp, maintaining the dependency chain correctly

✓ Header change is safe and properly structured

The change from asm_syntax.hpp to crab/label.hpp is correct as:

  • The new header provides all necessary dependencies
  • No circular dependencies are introduced
  • The change aligns with the PR objective of relocating label_t
  • The file only needs access to STACK_FRAME_DELIMITER which is now in the correct header

src/crab/fwd_analyzer.cpp (3)

79-79: LGTM: Simplified transformation logic.

The direct transformation approach is cleaner and aligns with the new GuardedInstruction structure.


73-78: 🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

Please clarify the comment about redundant errors.

The code looks well-structured, but the comment "avoid redundant errors" needs more context. Consider documenting:

  1. What kind of redundant errors were occurring?
  2. How does this implementation prevent them?

Let's check for related error handling patterns:

✅ Verification successful

Let me gather more context about the error handling and assumption mechanism.


Let me check one more thing about the preconditions and assertions to fully understand the context.


Based on the gathered context, I can now provide a final response:

Comment about redundant errors is clear from the codebase context

The comment "avoid redundant errors" refers to the interaction between assertion checking and assumption handling. When assume_assertions is enabled:

  1. ebpf_domain_check() verifies assertions and reports violations
  2. ebpf_domain_assume() incorporates the assertion into the domain state
  3. Without assuming the assertion, the same violation could be reported multiple times in subsequent checks

The current implementation correctly prevents this by assuming assertions before transformation when the flag is enabled.

71-71: LGTM: Safer access method for CFG nodes.

The change from get_node() to at() provides bounds checking and aligns with the transition to GuardedInstruction.

Let's verify that all CFG node accesses have been updated consistently:

test-data/loop.yaml (2)

189-189: LGTM: Improved message clarity for loop counter limits.

The addition of "(counter)" label in the message helps standardize and clearly identify loop counter-related messages.


286-286: LGTM: Standardized loop counter messages across all test cases.

The changes consistently apply the new message format with "(counter)" label and the 100000 iteration limit across all test cases. This standardization improves:

  1. Message identification and parsing
  2. Consistency in loop limit enforcement
  3. Test case maintainability

test-data/uninit.yaml (5)

Line range hint 151-250: LGTM! Consistent handling of bitwise operations

The test cases for bitwise operations (AND, OR, XOR, shifts) demonstrate consistent:

  • Error messages requiring number type for operands
  • Post-conditions preserving the number type

Line range hint 251-350: LGTM! Comprehensive move operation test cases

The test cases properly cover:

  • Sign-extension moves with type requirements
  • Regular moves with full attribute propagation

Line range hint 351-450: LGTM! Well-structured store operation tests

The test cases properly validate:

  • Different store sizes
  • Type requirements for externally-visible regions
  • Post-conditions (as required per learnings)

15-16: ⚠️ Potential issue

Inconsistent post-conditions across arithmetic operations

The post-conditions for arithmetic operations with uninitialized registers are inconsistent. For example:

  • Addition marks r0.type=uninit
  • Multiplication preserves r0.type=number
  • Division preserves r0.type=number and adds value constraints

This inconsistency could lead to confusion. Consider standardizing the behavior across all arithmetic operations with uninitialized registers.

Let's verify the existing behavior in the codebase:

#!/bin/bash
# Search for arithmetic operation handling with uninitialized registers
rg -l "uninit.*(?:add|sub|mul|div)" src/

Line range hint 551-650: Verify intended behavior for uninitialized stack reads

The comment referencing issue #754 questions whether these tests should fail. Consider:

  1. Adding a clear rationale for the current behavior in the test comments
  2. Adding test cases for the failure scenarios if they exist

Let's check the related issue and implementation:

✅ Verification successful

Let's analyze the implementation and test cases to understand the intended behavior for uninitialized stack reads.


Let's check the verifier implementation to understand how stack reads are handled.


Based on the test cases and documentation reviewed, I can now generate the final response:

Uninitialized stack reads are intentionally allowed and propagate the uninitialized state

The test cases demonstrate that reading from uninitialized stack regions is an expected behavior where:

  • The verifier propagates all attributes from the source stack region to the destination register
  • Both aligned (offsets -8, -16) and unaligned (offset -10) reads are supported
  • No error messages are generated as this is considered valid behavior

The reference to issue #754 can be removed as these tests correctly verify the intended behavior of allowing uninitialized stack reads while maintaining proper type propagation.

src/main/check.cpp (1)

127-127: Verify the impact of moving simplify to top-level options.

The change to move simplify from cfg_opts to the top level of ebpf_verifier_options aligns with the PR's objective of transitioning away from using basic_block as a core component of the CFG. However, we should ensure all callers are updated.

Let's verify the usage of this option throughout the codebase:

✅ Verification successful

Based on the search results, I can now generate the final response:

The simplify option has been correctly moved and all references are updated

The codebase scan shows that all references to simplify are now using the top-level option in ebpf_verifier_options structure, with no remaining references to the old cfg_opts.simplify. The option is consistently used in:

  • Main CLI configuration (src/main/check.cpp)
  • Test configurations (src/test/ebpf_yaml.cpp)

src/test/test_conformance.cpp (1)

9-9: 🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

LGTM! Good improvement in parameter passing.

The change from non-const to const reference for expected_result parameter is a good improvement that:

  • Prevents accidental modifications
  • Allows passing temporary objects efficiently
  • Better communicates the function's intent

Consider applying similar const-correctness improvements to other parameters where applicable:

  • filename is already const, which is good
  • expected_reason could also be made const for consistency:
-static void test_conformance(const std::string& filename, const bpf_conformance_test_result_t& expected_result,
-                             const std::string& expected_reason) {

179-184: LGTM! Clean implementation of explicit assumption handling.

The conditional handling of assumptions based on is_explicit flag is well-structured and aligns with the PR's objectives.


41-41: 🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

Clarify the handling of undefined instructions.

Commenting out assert(false) changes the behavior from failing fast to silently ignoring undefined instructions. While this aligns with the PR's transitional nature, we should document this temporary state.

Consider adding a TODO comment explaining why the assertion is disabled and tracking when it should be re-enabled:

-        // assert(false);
+        // TODO: Temporarily disabled assertion for undefined instructions as part of
+        // the transition to GuardedInstruction. Re-enable once undefined instructions
+        // are properly handled.
+        // assert(false);

306-309: LGTM! Verify consistent usage of value_t across the codebase.

The changes correctly adapt to using value_t instead of basic_block, maintaining the same functionality.

Let's verify that all basic_block references have been updated:

✅ Verification successful

Based on the search results, I can generate the final response:

All basic_block references are in header files and are part of the core implementation

The search results show that all remaining references to basic_block are in header files (mainly src/crab/cfg.hpp) where they define the core types and functionality. The actual usage in the codebase has been consistently updated to use value_t with the correct access pattern value.instruction().

Key findings:

  • All basic_block references are in type definitions and documentation
  • All actual usage consistently uses value.instruction() pattern
  • No inconsistent or outdated usage patterns were found
🏁 Scripts executed

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

Script:

#!/bin/bash
# Description: Check for any remaining references to basic_block that might need updating

174-174: LGTM! Clean implementation of the simplify option.

The changes correctly handle both the default case (false) and explicit setting through raw options.

Also applies to: 196-196


254-254: LGTM! Appropriate handling of simplify option in debug mode.

Setting simplify to false in debug mode is logical as it allows viewing the unmodified output.


363-363: LGTM! Consistent handling of simplify option in debug mode.

The change maintains consistency with run_yaml_test_case by disabling simplification in debug mode.


15-15: Verify header dependency change.

The switch from asm_ostream.hpp to asm_syntax.hpp needs verification to ensure all required functionality is available in the new header.

✅ Verification successful

Header change is correct and complete

The switch from asm_ostream.hpp to asm_syntax.hpp is verified to be correct because:

  1. All necessary stream operators (operator<<) previously in asm_ostream.hpp are now available in asm_syntax.hpp
  2. The required types (InstructionSeq, Instruction, label_t) used in ebpf_yaml.cpp are properly defined in asm_syntax.hpp

211-216: LGTM! Verify handling of Assume instructions.

The addition of is_explicit field to Assume looks good. However, since this changes the structure of Assume, we should verify that all code handling these instructions has been updated accordingly.

✅ Verification successful

LGTM - All Assume instruction handlers properly updated

The verification shows that all code handling Assume instructions has been properly updated for the new is_explicit field:

  • The field is properly defined in src/asm_syntax.hpp with documentation
  • All instances creating Assume (in src/asm_parse.cpp and src/asm_cfg.cpp) initialize the field
  • All handlers check or use the field appropriately:
    • assertions.cpp checks is_explicit before generating assertions
    • asm_ostream.cpp and ebpf_transformer.cpp handle the struct correctly
    • asm_marshal.cpp explicitly rejects marshaling assumptions

1146-1147: LGTM: Improved interval initialization syntax.

The change makes the interval initialization more explicit and readable while maintaining the same functionality.


1208-1208: LGTM: Added [[maybe_unused]] attribute.

Good addition of the [[maybe_unused]] attribute for the overflow variable which is only used in an assert statement. This helps maintain clean builds by avoiding compiler warnings.


1155-1155: Verify the impact of using T_UNINIT instead of T_MIN.

The change from T_MIN to T_UNINIT affects how type bounds are determined. Let's verify this change is consistent with other uses.

✅ Verification successful

Based on the search results, I can now generate the final response:

The change from T_MIN to T_UNINIT is correct and consistent with the codebase

The search results show that:

  • T_UNINIT (-7) is actually lower than T_MIN (which equals T_MAP_PROGRAMS, -6) in the type encoding hierarchy
  • T_UNINIT is consistently used as a distinct type for uninitialized values throughout the codebase
  • The change aligns with the type system's design where T_UNINIT represents a dedicated state for uninitialized variables

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

Script:

#!/bin/bash
# Description: Check other occurrences of T_MIN and T_UNINIT to ensure consistent usage
# Test: Search for T_MIN and T_UNINIT usage patterns

src/crab/thresholds.cpp (3)

5-5: Inclusion of crab/label.hpp is necessary for label_t usage

Including "crab/label.hpp" is appropriate since label_t is utilized within this file. This ensures that the definitions related to labels are available.


Line range hint 77-81: Verify the correctness of iterating over bb.prev_labels()

The loop now iterates over bb.prev_labels() instead of bb.prev_blocks(). Ensure that bb.prev_labels() returns the correct set of predecessor labels and that m_cfg.get_node(pre) correctly retrieves the corresponding nodes. This change may affect the logic of how predecessors are processed.


94-94: Use of to_string(label) enhances label representation

Replacing o << label << "=" << th << "\n"; with o << to_string(label) << "=" << th << "\n"; improves the readability and consistency of label output. Ensure that to_string is appropriately defined for label_t.

src/asm_syntax.hpp (3)

407-414: operator<< overloads for Value handle all variants correctly

The operator<< overload for Value correctly handles both Imm and Reg variants using std::get_if and std::get. This implementation ensures that all possible types within the std::variant are properly streamed to the output.


373-380: ⚠️ Potential issue

Verify correctness of offset calculation in label_to_offset16

The function label_to_offset16 calculates the 16-bit offset for labels. When the offset does not fit within an int16_t, it returns 0. Please verify that returning 0 in this case is appropriate and won't lead to incorrect instruction encoding or unintended behavior.

Ensure that the fallback to 0 when the offset exceeds int16_t limits is handled correctly downstream. If returning 0 is not appropriate, consider implementing an alternative error handling mechanism or adjusting the logic to accommodate larger offsets.


384-391: ⚠️ Potential issue

Verify logic in label_to_offset32 regarding 16-bit offsets

In the function label_to_offset32, when the offset fits within an int16_t, it returns 0; otherwise, it returns the full offset as an int32_t. Please confirm that returning 0 when the offset fits in 16 bits is intentional and that the calling code correctly interprets this case.

It's important to ensure that the handling of offsets that fit within 16 bits does not cause logic errors or misencoding of instructions. If necessary, adjust the function to explicitly handle both cases to prevent ambiguity.

src/asm_cfg.cpp (1)

190-207: Verify correctness of conditional jump handling

The logic for handling conditional jumps relies on the reverse function to generate the opposite condition for the fall-through path. It's crucial to ensure that the reverse function correctly handles all possible Condition::Op values to prevent logical errors in control flow.

Run the following script to verify that all conditional jumps and their reverses are correctly handled:

This script checks that every Condition::Op enum value is accounted for in the reverse function's switch statement.

✅ Verification successful

This script will help us:

  1. Locate the complete enum definition to see all possible Op values
  2. Find the reverse function implementation to verify if all cases are handled

This script should help us:

  1. Find the Condition struct which likely contains the Op enum
  2. Find the specific reverse function that handles Op values

This will show us the complete file content, allowing us to locate both the enum definition and the reverse implementation, which our previous targeted searches failed to find.


Conditional jump handling is correctly implemented

The reverse function correctly handles all possible Condition::Op values with proper matching pairs:

  • EQ ↔ NE (equals/not equals)
  • GE ↔ LT (greater-equal/less-than)
  • SGE ↔ SLT (signed greater-equal/signed less-than)
  • LE ↔ GT (less-equal/greater-than)
  • SLE ↔ SGT (signed less-equal/signed greater-than)
  • SET ↔ NSET (set/not set)

The implementation includes an assertion to catch any unhandled cases, and each operation has its corresponding inverse operation properly defined. The conditional jump handling in the CFG construction is therefore correct and complete.

🏁 Scripts executed

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

Script:

#!/bin/bash

75-76: LGTM: Function declaration follows best practices.

The declaration uses const references appropriately for efficient parameter passing.


77-78: LGTM: Well-designed stream operator overload.

The operator overload follows C++ best practices:

  • Takes stream by non-const reference (for chaining)
  • Takes line_info by const reference (for efficiency)
  • Declared at global scope
src/crab_verifier.cpp (1)

66-72: LGTM! Clean transition to GuardedInstruction.

295-295: Ensure comprehensive testing of jump and call instructions.

This change affects how jump targets and call destinations are resolved. Please ensure:

  1. Test cases cover various scenarios:
    • Forward and backward jumps
    • Local function calls
    • Edge cases with invalid labels
  2. Verify that the error handling remains consistent with the previous implementation

Let's check the test coverage:

295-295: Verify crab namespace functions and error handling.

The change to use crab::label_to_offset16 and crab::label_to_offset32 aligns with the PR's objective of restructuring CFG handling. However, we should verify:

  1. That these functions are properly defined in the crab namespace
  2. That they handle label resolution errors appropriately

src/asm_syntax.hpp (2)

386-386: ⚠️ Potential issue

Avoid using using namespace directives in headers

Using using namespace asm_syntax; in a header file can lead to namespace pollution in any source file that includes this header. It's a best practice to avoid using namespace directives in header files.

Apply this diff to remove the directive:

-using namespace asm_syntax;

And qualify names with the namespace where needed.

Likely invalid or redundant comment.


368-369: Ensure safe narrowing conversions

In line 369, using gsl::narrow<int>(a.v) may throw an exception if a.v cannot be safely converted to an int. Verify that Reg::v always holds values that fit within the int range to prevent runtime errors.

Run the following script to check the ranges of Reg::v usage:

✅ Verification successful

Based on the results, I can now provide a final response:

The narrowing conversion is safe

The Reg struct uses uint8_t v as its underlying type, which means all possible values will safely narrow to int without any risk of data loss or undefined behavior, as uint8_t has a maximum value of 255 which is well within the range of int (typically at least ±32,767).

From the codebase analysis:

  • Reg is defined with uint8_t v{} in src/asm_syntax.hpp
  • Usage shows registers are typically R0 through R11 (e.g., R0_RETURN_VALUE, R10_STACK_POINTER, R11_ATOMIC_SCRATCH)
  • All observed assignments use single-digit register numbers

  2. Validate and use collect_basic_blocks() to print simplified CFGs
  3. Remove use of ebpf_transformer in crab_verifier.cpp; lookup the next precomputed invariant manually, and warn if (a) current instruction is not Assume and (b) pre-invariant is not bottom but post-invariant is bottom. This should never happen, so it should fail some tests that currently pass even though they shouldn't (such as ebpf-samples/cilium/bpf_netdev.o from-netdev as mentioned in Sign extension generates BOT #679.
