Skip phi assignment if one of the merged states has an uninitialised object [blocks: #35, #2574, #3486] #2220

tautschnig · 2018-05-22T10:52:51Z

With level-2 counters incremented on declaration and non-deterministic
initialisation upon allocation, the only remaining sources are pointer
dereferencing, where uninitialised objects necessarily refer to invalid objects.

This is a cleaner implementation of 369f077.

This is another bit factored out from #35.

Should rename the PR? Since #2168 has landed in the meantime this is really just a cleanup now I think?

Not entirely: the implementation in #2168 did not yet consider the case that neither branch had SSA level2 at zero, which would occur with uninitialized globals, hence the argc/argv/envp fix in this PR before doing the "cleanup" part.

smowton · 2018-05-23T08:14:19Z

Aha, in that case can we have a test to exhibit the change here?

tautschnig · 2018-06-07T19:02:02Z

@smowton Apologies for the delay. I have amended the commit message, adding: "Removing only the code introduced in 369f077 would yield a wrong result for regression/cbmc/Local_out_of_scope3." -- so the test is actually already in place.

Cool, in that case lgtm

A couple of clang-format complaints, otherwise good to go.

@tautschnig is there a reason you dropped this? Looks good to go AFAICT. There were a couple of spurious Travis failures that I just restarted.

This now fixes even more bugs with fewer changes.

src/goto-symex/symex_goto.cpp

  {
-    rhs = dest_state_rhs;
+    if(goto_count == 0)


Note the dest_count == 0 && goto_count == 0 case is forbidden above, so this implies `dest_state.guard.is_false() && dest_count != 0) -- not sure if this can be distangled to make that clearer, or perhaps clarify with a comment

If dest_state.guard.is_false() then really we don't care about dest_count, because it sits on a dead branch. Any idea what you'd like the comment to say?

How about just pulling out

if( (dest_state.guard.is_false() && goto_count == 0) || (goto_state.guard.is_false() && dest_count == 0)) { return; }

It does mean testing is_false() multiple times, but it makes it clearer which cases are possible. Comment-wise, I guess we should add something like // If the symbol is not initialised on one path and the other path is unreachable we don't need to generate anything

Mind taking another look at the latest version of this PR? Your comments helped make clear which change fixes which bug!

Looks good! I have a feeling the previous version used !is_not_nil() where the current one uses is_not_nil() (without the !), so double-check that?

Well, one of them did... - which was a bug...
