Abstract syntax


Cminor is a low-level imperative language structured in expressions, statements, functions and programs. We first define the constants and operators that occur within expressions.

Expressions include reading local variables, constants, arithmetic operations, and memory loads.

Inductive expr : Type :=
  | Evar : ident -> expr
  | Econst : constant -> expr
  | Eunop : unary_operation -> expr -> expr
  | Ebinop : binary_operation -> expr -> expr -> expr
  | Eload : memory_chunk -> expr -> expr.

Statements include expression evaluation, assignment to local variables, memory stores, function calls, an if/then/else conditional, infinite loops, blocks and early block exits, and early function returns. Sexit n terminates prematurely the execution of the n+1 enclosing Sblock statements.

Definition label := ident.

Inductive stmt : Type :=
  | Sskip: stmt
  | Sassign : ident -> expr -> stmt
  | Sstore : memory_chunk -> expr -> expr -> stmt
  | Scall : option ident -> signature -> expr -> list expr -> stmt
  | Stailcall: signature -> expr -> list expr -> stmt
  | Sbuiltin : option ident -> external_function -> list expr -> stmt
  | Sseq: stmt -> stmt -> stmt
  | Sifthenelse: expr -> stmt -> stmt -> stmt
  | Sloop: stmt -> stmt
  | Sblock: stmt -> stmt
  | Sexit: nat -> stmt
  | Sswitch: bool -> expr -> list (Z * nat) -> nat -> stmt
  | Sreturn: option expr -> stmt
  | Slabel: label -> stmt -> stmt
  | Sgoto: label -> stmt.

Functions are composed of a signature, a list of parameter names, a list of local variables, and a statement representing the function body. Each function can allocate a memory block of size fn_stackspace on entrance. This block will be deallocated automatically before the function returns. Pointers into this block can be taken with the Oaddrstack operator.

Record function : Type := mkfunction {
  fn_sig: signature;
  fn_params: list ident;
  fn_vars: list ident;
  fn_stackspace: Z;
  fn_body: stmt
}.

Definition fundef := AST.fundef function.
Definition program := AST.program fundef unit.

Definition funsig (fd: fundef) :=
  match fd with
  | Internal f => fn_sig f
  | External ef => ef_sig ef
  end.

Operational semantics (small-step)


Two kinds of evaluation environments are involved:

Definition genv := Genv.t fundef unit.
Definition env := PTree.t val.

The following functions build the initial local environment at function entry, binding parameters to the provided arguments and initializing local variables to Vundef.

Fixpoint set_params (vl: list val) (il: list ident) {struct il} : env :=
  match il, vl with
  | i1 :: is, v1 :: vs => PTree.set i1 v1 (set_params vs is)
  | i1 :: is, nil => PTree.set i1 Vundef (set_params nil is)
  | _, _ => PTree.empty val
  end.

Fixpoint set_locals (il: list ident) (e: env) {struct il} : env :=
  match il with
  | nil => e
  | i1 :: is => PTree.set i1 Vundef (set_locals is e)
  end.

Definition set_optvar (optid: option ident) (v: val) (e: env) : env :=
  match optid with
  | None => e
  | Some id => PTree.set id v e
  end.

Continuations

Inductive cont: Type :=
  | Kstop: cont (* stop program execution *)
  | Kseq: stmt -> cont -> cont (* execute stmt, then cont *)
  | Kblock: cont -> cont (* exit a block, then do cont *)
  | Kcall: option ident -> function -> val -> env -> cont -> cont.

States

Inductive state: Type :=
  | State: (* Execution within a function *)
      forall (f: function) (* currently executing function *)
             (s: stmt) (* statement under consideration *)
             (k: cont) (* its continuation -- what to do next *)
             (sp: val) (* current stack pointer *)
             (e: env) (* current local environment *)
             (m: mem), (* current memory state *)
      state
  | Callstate: (* Invocation of a function *)
      forall (f: fundef) (* function to invoke *)
             (args: list val) (* arguments provided by caller *)
             (k: cont) (* what to do next *)
             (m: mem), (* memory state *)
      state
  | Returnstate: (* Return from a function *)
      forall (v: val) (* Return value *)
             (k: cont) (* what to do next *)
             (m: mem), (* memory state *)
      state.

Evaluation of an expression: eval_expr ge sp e m a v states that expression a evaluates to value v. ge is the global environment, e the local environment, and m the current memory state. They are unchanged during evaluation. sp is the pointer to the memory block allocated for this function (stack frame).

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 ->
      funsig f = signature_main ->
      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.

Alternate operational semantics (big-step)


We now define another semantics for Cminor without goto that follows the ``big-step'' style of semantics, also known as natural semantics. In this style, just like expressions evaluate to values, statements evaluate to``outcomes'' indicating how execution should proceed afterwards.

Inductive outcome: Type :=
  | Out_normal: outcome (* continue in sequence *)
  | Out_exit: nat -> outcome (* terminate n+1 enclosing blocks *)
  | Out_return: option val -> outcome (* return immediately to caller *)
  | Out_tailcall_return: val -> outcome. (* already returned to caller via a tailcall *)

Definition outcome_block (out: outcome) : outcome :=
  match out with
  | Out_exit O => Out_normal
  | Out_exit (S n) => Out_exit n
  | out => out
  end.

Definition outcome_result_value
    (out: outcome) (retsig: option typ) (vres: val) : Prop :=
  match out with
  | Out_normal => vres = Vundef
  | Out_return None => vres = Vundef
  | Out_return (Some v) => retsig <> None /\ vres = v
  | Out_tailcall_return v => vres = v
  | _ => False
  end.

Definition outcome_free_mem
    (out: outcome) (m: mem) (sp: block) (sz: Z) (m': mem) :=
  match out with
  | Out_tailcall_return _ => m' = m
  | _ => Mem.free m sp 0 sz = Some m'
  end.

Variable ge: genv.

Evaluation of a function invocation: eval_funcall ge m f args t m' res means that the function f, applied to the arguments args in memory state m, returns the value res in modified memory state m'. t is the trace of observable events generated during the invocation.

Execution of a statement: exec_stmt ge f sp e m s t e' m' out means that statement s executes with outcome out. e is the initial environment and m is the initial memory state. e' is the final environment, reflecting variable assignments performed by s. m' is the final memory state, reflecting memory stores performed by s. t is the trace of I/O events performed during the execution. The other parameters are as in eval_expr.
