The Executable Design Specification of seL4

l4v/spec/design/

This directory contains the Isabelle sources of the executable design specification for seL4.

Most theory files in this directory are tool-generated, do not edit!

The files here are also not particularly well suited for human consumption, it is recommended to directly read the corresponding Haskell code in seL4/haskell instead.

Top-Level Theory

The top-level theory file that draws the whole specification together is API_H, the top-level function in that theory is callKernel.

Similarly to the abstract specification, this top-level function is later in the proofs further wrapped in an automaton that describes system behaviour on this level of abstraction.

Building

The corresponding Isabelle session is ExecSpec. Build in l4v/spec/ with

make ExecSpec

Remarks

• for regenerating the design spec from Haskell sources, go to directory l4v/tools/haskell-translator and run

     ./make_spec.sh
  

• skeleton files that define which parts of which Haskell files get mapped to which Isabelle theories are found in the sub directories skel and m-skel for design and machine respectively.
