[PATCH V4 03/20] rv/include: Add helper functions for deterministic automata

From: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira
Date: Thu Jun 16 2022 - 04:45:50 EST


Formally, a deterministic automaton, denoted by G, is defined as a
quintuple:

G = { X, E, f, x_0, X_m }

where:
- X is the set of states;
- E is the finite set of events;
- x_0 is the initial state;
- X_m (subset of X) is the set of marked states.
- f : X x E -> X $ is the transition function. It defines the
state transition in the occurrence of a event from E in
the state X. In the special case of deterministic automata,
the occurrence of the event in E in a state in X has a
deterministic next state from X.

An automaton can also be represented using a graphical format of
vertices (nodes) and edges. The open-source tool Graphviz can produce
this graphic format using the (textual) DOT language as the source code.

The dot2c tool presented in this paper:

DE OLIVEIRA, Daniel Bristot; CUCINOTTA, Tommaso; DE OLIVEIRA, Romulo
Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.

Translates a deterministic automaton in the DOT format into a C
source code representation that to be used for monitoring.

This header file implements helper functions to facilitate the usage
of the C output from dot2c for monitoring.
