Ornaments for Proof Reuse in Coq

Authors: Talia Ringer, Nathaniel Yazdani, John Leo, and Dan Grossman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 141, 10th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2019)


Abstract
Ornaments express relations between inductive types with the same inductive structure. We implement fully automatic proof reuse for a particular class of ornaments in a Coq plugin, and show how such a tool can give programmers the rewards of using indexed inductive types while automating away many of the costs. The plugin works directly on Coq code; it is the first ornamentation tool for a non-embedded dependently typed language. It is also the first tool to automatically identify ornaments: To lift a function or proof, the user must provide only the source type, the destination type, and the source function or proof. In taking advantage of the mathematical properties of ornaments, our approach produces faster functions and smaller terms than a more general approach to proof reuse in Coq.

Legato: An At-Most-Once Analysis with Applications to Dynamic Configuration Updates

Authors: John Toman and Dan Grossman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 109, 32nd European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2018)


Abstract
Modern software increasingly relies on external resources whose location or content can change during program execution. Examples of such resources include remote network hosts, database entries, dynamically updated configuration options, etc. Long running, adaptable programs must handle these changes gracefully and correctly. Dealing with all possible resource update scenarios is difficult to get right, especially if, as is common, external resources can be modified without prior warning by code and/or users outside of the application's direct control. If a resource unexpectedly changes during a computation, an application may observe multiple, inconsistent states of the resource, leading to incorrect program behavior. This paper presents a sound and precise static analysis, Legato, that verifies programs correctly handle changes in external resources. Our analysis ensures that every value computed by an application reflects a single, consistent version of every external resource's state. Although consistent computation in the presence of concurrent resource updates is fundamentally a concurrency issue, our analysis relies on the novel at-most-once condition to avoid explicitly reasoning about concurrency. The at-most-once condition requires that all values depend on at most one access of each resource. Our analysis is flow-, field-, and context-sensitive. It scales to real-world Java programs while producing a moderate number of false positives. We applied Legato to 10 applications with dynamically updated configurations, and found several non-trivial consistency bugs.

Legato: An At-Most-Once Analysis with Applications to Dynamic Configuration Updates (Artifact)

Authors: John Toman and Dan Grossman

Published in: DARTS, Volume 4, Issue 3, Special Issue of the 32nd European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2018)


Abstract
This artifact supports Legato, an at-most-once analysis. An at-most-once analysis ensures that an application never observes inconsistent versions of its environment by checking that every value depends on at most one access of every external resource used by the application. We have applied this general analysis to the problem of finding errors in applications that support dynamic configuration updates (DCU), i.e., configuration updates that are applied immediately without program restart. When configurations may change at any point during execution, the enforcing the at-most-once condition for each configuration option guarantees that the program never observes inconsistent versions of configuration options. This artifact recreates our experiments, which applied Legato to 10 applications that support DCU and found several bugs across 9 of the 10 programs.

Programming Language Tools and Techniques for 3D Printing

Authors: Chandrakana Nandi, Anat Caspi, Dan Grossman, and Zachary Tatlock

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 71, 2nd Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2017)


Abstract
We propose a research agenda to investigate programming language techniques for improving affordable, end-user desktop manufacturing processes such as 3D printing. Our goal is to adapt programming languages tools and extend the decades of research in industrial, high-end CAD/CAM in order to help make affordable desktop manufacturing processes more accurate, fast, reliable, and accessible to end-users. We focus on three major areas where 3D printing can benefit from programming language tools: design synthesis, optimizing compilation, and runtime monitoring. We present preliminary results on synthesizing editable CAD models from difficult-to-edit surface meshes, discuss potential new compilation strategies, and propose runtime monitoring techniques. We conclude by discussing additional near-future directions we intend to pursue.

Taming the Static Analysis Beast

Authors: John Toman and Dan Grossman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 71, 2nd Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2017)


Abstract
While industrial-strength static analysis over large, real-world codebases has become commonplace, so too have difficult-to-analyze language constructs, large libraries, and popular frameworks. These features make constructing and evaluating a novel, sound analysis painful, error-prone, and tedious. We motivate the need for research to address these issues by highlighting some of the many challenges faced by static analysis developers in today's software ecosystem. We then propose our short- and long-term research agenda to make static analysis over modern software less burdensome.

Staccato: A Bug Finder for Dynamic Configuration Updates

Authors: John Toman and Dan Grossman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 56, 30th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2016)


Abstract
Modern software applications are highly configurable, allowing configuration options to be changed even during program execution. When dynamic configuration updating is implemented incorrectly, program errors can result. These program errors occur primarily when stale data—computed from old configurations—or inconsistent data—computed from different configurations—are used. We introduce Staccato, the first tool designed to detect these errors. Staccato uses a dynamic analysis in the style of taint analysis to find the use of stale configuration data in Java programs. It supports concurrent programs running on commodity JVMs. In some cases, Staccato can provide automatic bug avoidance and semi-automatic repair when errors occur. We evaluated Staccato on 3 open-source applications that support complex reconfigurability. Staccato found multiple errors in all of them. Staccato requires only modest annotation overhead and has moderate performance overhead.

Staccato: A Bug Finder for Dynamic Configuration Updates (Artifact)

Abstract
This artifact is based on Staccato, a tool for finding errors in dynamic configuration update (DCU) implementations. Dynamic configuration update refers to configuration changes that occur at runtime without program restart. Errors in DCU implementations occur when stale data - computed from old configurations - or inconsistent data - computed from different configurations - are used. Staccato uses a dynamic analysis in the style of taint analysis to detect these errors. Staccato supports concurrent programs running on commodity JVMs. We evaluated Staccato on three open-source applications and found errors in all of them.

Toward a Dependability Case Language and Workflow for a Radiation Therapy System

Authors: Michael D. Ernst, Dan Grossman, Jon Jacky, Calvin Loncaric, Stuart Pernsteiner, Zachary Tatlock, Emina Torlak, and Xi Wang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 32, 1st Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2015)


Abstract
We present a near-future research agenda for bringing a suite of modern programming-languages verification tools - specifically interactive theorem proving, solver-aided languages, and formally defined domain-specific languages - to the development of a specific safety-critical system, a radiotherapy medical device. We sketch how we believe recent programming-languages research advances can merge with existing best practices for safety-critical systems to increase system assurance and developer productivity. We motivate hypotheses central to our agenda: That we should start with a single specific system and that we need to integrate a variety of complementary verification and synthesis tools into system development.
