Runtime Verification (RV) is a lightweight (yet rigorous) method that complements classical exhaustive verification techniques (such as model checking and theorem proving) with a more practical approach for complex systems. Instead of relying on a fine-grained model of a system (e.g., a re-implementation a instruction level), RV works by analyzing the trace of the system's actual execution, comparing it against a formal specification of the system behavior. The usage of deterministic automaton for RV is a well-established approach. In the specific case of the Linux kernel, you can check how to model complex behavior of the Linux kernel with 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. And how efficient is this approach here: De Oliveira, Daniel B.; De Oliveira, Romulo S.; Cucinotta, Tommaso. *A thread synchronization model for the PREEMPT_RT Linux kernel.* Journal of Systems Architecture, 2020, 107: 101729. tlrd: it is possible to model complex behaviors in a modular way, with an acceptable overhead (even for production systems). See this presentation at 2019's ELCE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfTuEHafNgg Here I am proposing a more practical approach for the usage of deterministic automata for runtime verification, and it includes: - An interface for controlling the verification; - A tool and set of headers that enables the automatic code generation of the RV monitor (Monitor Synthesis); - Sample monitors to evaluate the interface; Given that RV is a tracing consumer, the code is being placed inside the tracing subsystem (Steven and I have been talking about it for a while). Features to be added after this patchset: - safe_wtd monitor (requires further discussion with watchdog maintainers) - Export symbols for external modules - dot2bpf - Add a reactor that enables the visualization of the visited states via KCOV (Marco Elver & Dmitry Vyukov) - Add a CRC method to check from user-space if the values exported by the monitor were not corrupted by any other kernel task (Gabriele Paoloni) Changes from v4: - The watchdog monitor will be discussed on another thread (Daniel) - s/safe/final/ in the tracepoint definition (Daniel) - Improved error handling at __init functions (Daniel) - Remove the hostname from example of commands in a shell (Bagas Sanjaya) - Added documentation about automata representation in C/DOT/Formal and this documentation is cited in a comment on all model.h (Steven) - Make wwnr a single patch (Daniel/Steven) - Add the .dot file for each monitor (Daniel) - Add a document for each monitor (Daniel) - Add an order for documentation in the index.rst (Daniel) - Add wip/wwnr/... long description (Steven/Randy) - Add comments for helper functions (Steven) - Improve checks in da_monitor.h (Tao Zhou) - Change final states set to bool (Tao/Daniel) - Adjust indentation on enabling monitor/reactor (Steven) - Use strim on buffers from user-space (Steven) - Remove ifdefs inside functions (Steven) - Adjust depends on RV in Kconfig (Steven) - Check empty enabled monitor list (Tao Zhou) - Fixed Copyright (Steven) - Adjusted structures' indentation (Steven) - Fix rv/monitors/$monitor/enabled return value (Song Liu) - Typos (Punit Agrawal/Randy) - Improved python scripts w.r.t. consistency (Steve) - Blamed myself for so many problems :-) (Daniel's mind) Changes from v3: - Rebased on 5.19 (rostedt's request were made on 1x1 meetings) - Moved monitors to monitors/$name/ (Rostedt) - Consolidate the tracepoints into a single include file in the default directory (trace/events/rv.h) (Rostedt) - The tracepoints now record the entire string to the buffer. - Change the enable_monitors to disable monitors with ! (instead of -). (Rostedt) - Add a suffix to the state/events enums, to avoid conflict in the vmlinux.h used by eBPF. - The models are now placed in the $name.h (it used to store the tracepoints, but they are now consolidated in a single file) - dot2c and dot2k updated to the changes - models re-generated with these new standards. - user-space tools moved to an directory outside of tools/tracing as other methods of verification/log sources are planned. Changes from v2: - Tons of checkpatch and kernel test robot - Moved files to better places - Adjusted watchdog tracepoints patch (Guenter Roeck) - Added pretimeout watchdog events (Peter Enderborg) - Used task struct to store per-task monitors (Peter Zijlstra) - Changed the instrumentation to use internal definition of tracepoint and check the callback signature (Steven Rostedt) - Used printk_deferred() and removed the comment about deadlocks (Shuah Khan/John Ogness) - Some simplifications: - Removed the safe watchdog nowayout for now (myself) - Removed export symbols for now (myself) Changes from V1: - rebased to the latest kernel; - code cleanup; - the watchdog dev monitor; - safety app; Daniel Bristot de Oliveira (16): rv: Add Runtime Verification (RV) interface rv: Add runtime reactors interface rv/include: Add helper functions for deterministic automata rv/include: Add deterministic automata monitor definition via C macros rv/include: Add instrumentation helper functions Documentation/rv: Add a basic documentation tools/rv: Add dot2c Documentation/rv: Add deterministic automaton documentation tools/rv: Add dot2k Documentation/rv: Add deterministic automata monitor synthesis documentation Documentation/rv: Add deterministic automata instrumentation documentation rv/monitor: Add the wip monitor skeleton created by dot2k rv/monitor: Add the wip monitor rv/monitor: Add the wwnr monitor rv/reactor: Add the printk reactor rv/reactor: Add the panic reactor Documentation/trace/index.rst | 1 + .../trace/rv/da_monitor_instrumentation.rst | 169 ++++ .../trace/rv/da_monitor_synthesis.rst | 147 ++++ .../trace/rv/deterministic_automata.rst | 184 +++++ Documentation/trace/rv/index.rst | 14 + Documentation/trace/rv/monitor_wip.rst | 55 ++ Documentation/trace/rv/monitor_wwnr.rst | 45 ++ .../trace/rv/runtime-verification.rst | 233 ++++++ include/linux/rv.h | 35 + include/linux/sched.h | 11 + include/rv/automata.h | 75 ++ include/rv/da_monitor.h | 524 +++++++++++++ include/rv/instrumentation.h | 29 + include/rv/rv.h | 32 + include/trace/events/rv.h | 142 ++++ kernel/fork.c | 14 + kernel/trace/Kconfig | 2 + kernel/trace/Makefile | 1 + kernel/trace/rv/Kconfig | 81 ++ kernel/trace/rv/Makefile | 8 + kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wip/wip.c | 91 +++ kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wip/wip.h | 46 ++ kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wwnr/wwnr.c | 90 +++ kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wwnr/wwnr.h | 46 ++ kernel/trace/rv/reactor_panic.c | 43 + kernel/trace/rv/reactor_printk.c | 42 + kernel/trace/rv/rv.c | 739 ++++++++++++++++++ kernel/trace/rv/rv.h | 65 ++ kernel/trace/rv/rv_reactors.c | 488 ++++++++++++ kernel/trace/trace.c | 2 + kernel/trace/trace.h | 9 + tools/verification/dot2/Makefile | 26 + tools/verification/dot2/automata.py | 174 +++++ tools/verification/dot2/dot2c | 26 + tools/verification/dot2/dot2c.py | 254 ++++++ tools/verification/dot2/dot2k | 47 ++ tools/verification/dot2/dot2k.py | 177 +++++ .../dot2/dot2k_templates/main_global.c | 94 +++ .../dot2/dot2k_templates/main_per_cpu.c | 94 +++ .../dot2/dot2k_templates/main_per_task.c | 94 +++ tools/verification/models/wip.dot | 16 + tools/verification/models/wwnr.dot | 16 + 42 files changed, 4481 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/rv/da_monitor_instrumentation.rst create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/rv/da_monitor_synthesis.rst create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/rv/deterministic_automata.rst create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/rv/index.rst create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/rv/monitor_wip.rst create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/rv/monitor_wwnr.rst create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/rv/runtime-verification.rst create mode 100644 include/linux/rv.h create mode 100644 include/rv/automata.h create mode 100644 include/rv/da_monitor.h create mode 100644 include/rv/instrumentation.h create mode 100644 include/rv/rv.h create mode 100644 include/trace/events/rv.h create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/Kconfig create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/Makefile create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wip/wip.c create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wip/wip.h create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wwnr/wwnr.c create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/monitors/wwnr/wwnr.h create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/reactor_panic.c create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/reactor_printk.c create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/rv.c create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/rv.h create mode 100644 kernel/trace/rv/rv_reactors.c create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/Makefile create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/automata.py create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/dot2c create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/dot2c.py create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/dot2k create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/dot2k.py create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/dot2k_templates/main_global.c create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/dot2k_templates/main_per_cpu.c create mode 100644 tools/verification/dot2/dot2k_templates/main_per_task.c create mode 100644 tools/verification/models/wip.dot create mode 100644 tools/verification/models/wwnr.dot -- 2.35.1
