Frama-C API - Dataflows
Implementation of data flow analyses over user-supplied domains.
module type FUNCTION_ENV = sig ... end
Environment relative to the function being processed, and function to create them from Kf.
val function_env : Cil_types.kernel_function -> (module FUNCTION_ENV)
module type JOIN_SEMILATTICE = sig ... end
Backward dataflow
module type BACKWARD_MONOTONE_PARAMETER = sig ... end
Statement-based backward dataflow. Contrary to the forward dataflow, the transfer function cannot differentiate the state before a statement between different predecessors.
module Simple_backward (_ : FUNCTION_ENV) (P : BACKWARD_MONOTONE_PARAMETER) : sig ... end
Forward dataflow
module type FORWARD_MONOTONE_PARAMETER = sig ... end
Edge-based forward dataflow. It is edge-based because the transfer function can differentiate the state after a statement between different successors. In particular, the state can be reduced according to the conditions in if statements.
module Simple_forward (_ : FUNCTION_ENV) (P : FORWARD_MONOTONE_PARAMETER) : sig ... end
Helper functions for forward dataflow.
val transfer_if_from_guard : (Cil_types.stmt -> Cil_types.exp -> 'a -> 'a * 'a) -> Cil_types.stmt -> 'a -> (Cil_types.stmt * 'a) list
transfer_if_from_guard
implements FORWARD_MONOTONE_PARAMETER.transfer_stmt
for the If
statement, given a function transfer_guard
.
transfer_guard
receives a conditional expression, the current statement, and the current state, and must return two states in which the conditional is assumed to be true and false respectively. Returning twice the current state is a valid, albeit imprecise, result.
val transfer_switch_from_guard : (Cil_types.stmt -> Cil_types.exp -> 'a -> 'a * 'a) -> Cil_types.stmt -> 'a -> (Cil_types.stmt * 'a) list
Same as transfer_if_from_guard
, but for a Switch
statement. The same function transfer_guard
can be used for transfer_if_from_guard
and transfer_switch_from_guard
.
