Challenge 25: Verify the safety of VecDeque functions

  • Status: Open
  • Tracking Issue: #286
  • Start date: 2025-03-07
  • End date: 2025-10-17
  • Reward: 5000 USD

Goal

Verify the safety of VecDeque functions in (library/alloc/src/collections/vec_deque/mod.rs).

Success Criteria

Verify the safety of the following functions in (library/alloc/src/collections/vec_deque/mod.rs).

Function
push_unchecked
buffer_read
buffer_write
buffer_range
copy
copy_nonoverlapping
wrap_copy
copy_slice
handle_capacity_increase
from_contiguous_raw_parts_in
get
get_mut
swap
capacity
reserve_exact
reserve
try_reserve_exact
try_reserve
shrink_to
abort_shrink
as_slices
as_mut_slices
range
range_mut
pop_front
pop_back
push_front
push_back
insert
remove
split_off
append
grow
make_contiguous
rotate_left
rotate_right
rotate_left_inner
rotate_right_inner

The verification must be unbounded---it must hold for slices of arbitrary length.

The verification must hold for generic type T (no monomorphization).

List of UBs

All proofs must automatically ensure the absence of the following undefined behaviors ref:

  • Accessing (loading from or storing to) a place that is dangling or based on a misaligned pointer.
  • Reading from uninitialized memory except for padding or unions.
  • Mutating immutable bytes.
  • Producing an invalid value

Note: All solutions to verification challenges need to satisfy the criteria established in the challenge book in addition to the ones listed above.
