Abstract

Sometimes machine code turns out to be a better target for verification than source code. RISC machine code is especially advantaged with respect to source code in this regard because it has only two instructions that access memory. That architecture forms the basis here for an inference system that can prove machine code safe against `hardware aliasing', an effect that occurs in embedded systems. There are programming memes that ensure code is safe from hardware aliasing, but we want to certify that a given machine code is provably safe.
