* Use the LGPL instead of the GPL for dual-licensed filesXavier Leroy2021-05-081-4/+5
| | | | | | The GPL makes sense for whole applications, but the dual-licensed Coq and OCaml files are more like libraries to be combined with other code, so the LGPL is more appropriate.
* Move `$` notation in submodule `ClightNotations` and scope `clight_scope`Xavier Leroy2021-04-231-11/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | This avoids a nasty conflict with Ltac2 notations as reported in #392. The old `$` notation in scope `string_scope` was not used yet, AFAIK. The new submodule and the new scope are the right places to add future notations to facilitate working with the output of clightgen. Fixes: #392
* Add `string_of_ident` conversionXavier Leroy2020-10-121-0/+110
| | | | | | This is the left inverse of `ident_to_string`. Closes: #372
* Add a canonical encoding of identifiers as numbers and use it in clightgen ↵Xavier Leroy2020-05-191-1/+100
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (#353) Within CompCert, identifiers (names of C functions, variables, types, etc) are represented by unique positive numbers, sometimes called "atoms". In the original implementation, atoms 1, 2, ..., N are assigned to identifiers as they are encountered. The resulting number are small and are efficient when used as keys in data structures such as PTrees. However, the mapping from C source-level identifiers to atoms differs between compilation units. This is not a problem for CompCert but complicates CompCert-based verification tools that need to combine several compilation units. This commit introduces an alternate implementation of atoms, suggested by Andrew Appel. The choice between implementations is governed by the Boolean reference `Camlcoq.use_canonical_atoms`. In the alternate implementation, identifiers are converted to bit sequences via a Huffman encoding, then the bits are represented as positive numbers. The same identifier is always represented by the same number. However, the numbers are usually bigger than in the original implementation, making PTree operations slower: lookups and updates take time linear in the length of the identifier, instead of logarithmic time in the number of identifiers encountered. The CompCert compiler (the `ccomp` executable) still uses the original implementation, but the `clightgen` tool used in conjunction with the VST program logic can use either implementations: - The alternate "canonical atoms" implementation is used by default, and also if the `-canonical-idents` option is given. - The original implementation is used if the `-short-idents` option is given. Closes: #222 Closes: #311
* Issue #199: improve namespace management for clightgen-produced filesXavier Leroy2017-08-281-11/+2
| | | | | Qualify imports in clightgen-produced files and in Clightdefs so that they can be used with coq -Q /path/to/compcert compcert. Remove 'Require Export' from Clightdefs as suggested in issue #199.
* Issue #196: excessive proof-checking times in .v files generated by clightgenXavier Leroy2017-08-151-5/+24
| | | | | | The check that "build_composite_env composites = OK (make_composite_env composites)" is taking time exponential on the number of struct/union definitions, at least on the example provided in #196. The solution implemented in this commit is to use computational reflection more efficiently, just to check that "build_composite_env composites" is of the form "OK _". From there, a new function Clightdefs.mkprogram produces the appropriate Clight.program without additional computation.
* Use Coq strings instead of idents to name external and builtin functions.Xavier Leroy2015-10-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The AST.ident type represents source-level identifiers as unique positive numbers. However, the mapping identifiers <-> AST.ident differs between runs of CompCert on different source files. This is problematic when we need to produce or recognize external functions and builtin functions with fixed names, for example: * in $ARCH/Machregs.v to define the register conventions for builtin functions; * in the VST program logic from Princeton to treat thread primitives specially. So far, we used AST.ident_of_string to recover the ident associated with a string. However, this function is defined in OCaml and doesn't execute within Coq. This is a problem both for VST and for future executability of CompCert within Coq. This commit replaces "ident" by "string" in the arguments of EF_external, EF_builtin, EF_inline_asm, EF_annot, and EF_annot_val. This provides stable names for externals and builtins, as needed. For inline asm and annotations, it's a matter of taste, but using strings feels more natural. EF_debug keeps using idents, since some kinds of EF_debug annotations talk about program variables.
