Changes in CtrlNbac back-end :
- systematic sink state, only in ctrln code
- sink state "ok" removed (useless as was coded)
- no sink state in minils code
- outputs in ctrln are local variables, no longer state variables
* Several controllers by module : added option "-m <Module>" in ctrl2ept
Generate controllers for each node of one module in <module>_controller.ept
* Types of <Module> no longer moved to <Module>_controller
* Added "_types" suffix for type dependencies for C target
Attempts to compile a pervasives.epi containing functions with multiple
outputs or nodes now fail with an informative error message.
* The following files demonstrate the problem:
pervasives.epi:
type bool = true | false
external val node test(bool;bool) returns bool
broken.ept:
node broken() returns (y : bool)
let
y = test(false, false);
tel
Running:
heptc -nopervasives pervasives.epi
heptc -stdlib . -target c broken.ept
Fails with:
---------
Internal compiler error
Passe : Static evaluation failed of the pervasive operator test
----------
Fatal error: exception Misc.Assert_false
* A different error occurs for nodes that return multiple outputs:
pervasives.epi:
type bool = true | false
external val node test(bool;bool) returns (bool;bool)
broken.ept:
node broken() returns (y : bool)
var l1 : bool;
let
(y,l1) = test(false, false);
tel
Running:
heptc -nopervasives pervasives.epi
heptc -stdlib . broken.ept
Gives:
Inconsistent clock annotation for exp test(false, false).
File "broken.ept", line 4, characters 11-29:
> (y,l1) = test(false, false);
> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Clock Clash: this expression has clock 'a3,
but is expected to have clock ('a4 * 'a5).
The name "test" is parsed as an Eextvalue (rather than an Eapp), and there
is an implicit assumption in compiler/minils/analysis/clocking.ml that such
values have a simple clock.
Without this change one could end up with inconsistent numerical types
when expressions like 1 + xx /. 3.0 >= 0 (with xx being a float), that
is correctly handled in ReaTK's frontend, are translated into the
heptagon's internal representation.
These changes allow to handle the case where contracts are only used
for verification purposes, in which case the functions generated by
ReaX have no outputs and are not functions stricto sensu. Indeed, in
this case the new controller module still needs to be declared and
compiled as we may have re-qualified types during the generation of
the Controllable-Nbac code: we moved all types declared in the
original module into the controller module to break cyclic module
dependencies that would otherwise be introduced if the controller is
expressed using data of such types.
Contracts can now comprise a list of objectives (in any order).
One objective can be (e being a Boolean heptagon expression) :
- invariance, with the syntax "enforce e"
- reachability, "reachable e"
- attractivity, "attractive e"
- Controllable-Nbac export (CtrlNbacGen): correct handling of float
expressions, as well as alias types;
- Controllable-Nbac controller importer (CtrlNbacAsEpt): Declaration
of enumerated types and aliases that are relocated to controller
modules is now performed based on the interface. Dependencies
between type aliases are also taken into account now;
- ctrl2ept tool: correct loading of pervasives module.
