Before this commit, given "HP" : P and "H" : P -★ Q with Q persistent, one
could write:

  iSpecialize ("H" with "#HP")

to eliminate the wand in "H" while keeping the resource "HP". The lemma:

  own_valid : own γ x ⊢ ✓ x

was the prototypical example where this pattern (using the #) was used.

However, the pattern was too limited. For example, given "H" : P₁ -★ P₂ -★ Q",
one could not write iSpecialize ("H" with "#HP₁") because P₂ -★ Q is not
persistent, even when Q is.

So, instead, this commit introduces the following tactic:

  iSpecialize pm_trm as #

which allows one to eliminate implications and wands while being able to use
all hypotheses to prove the premises, as well as being able to use all
hypotheses to prove the resulting goal.

In the case of iDestruct, we now check whether all branches of the introduction
pattern start with an `#` (moving the hypothesis to the persistent context) or
`%` (moving the hypothesis to the pure Coq context). If this is the case, we
allow one to use all hypotheses for proving the premises, as well as for proving
the resulting goal.

History

IRIS COQ DEVELOPMENT

This is the Coq development of the Iris Project.

Prerequisites

This version is known to compile with:

  • Coq 8.5pl2
  • Ssreflect 1.6

For development, better make sure you have a version of Ssreflect that includes commit be724937 (no such version has been released so far, you will have to fetch the development branch yourself). Iris compiles fine even without this patch, but proof bullets will only be in 'strict' (enforcing) mode with the fixed version of Ssreflect.

Building Instructions

Run the following command to build the full development:

make

The development can then be installed as the Coq user contribution iris by running:

make install

Structure

  • The folder prelude contains an extended "Standard Library" by Robbert Krebbers http://robbertkrebbers.nl/thesis.html.
  • The folder algebra contains the COFE and CMRA constructions as well as the solver for recursive domain equations.
  • The folder program_logic builds the semantic domain of Iris, defines and verifies primitive view shifts and weakest preconditions, and builds some language-independent derived constructions (e.g., STSs).
  • The folder heap_lang defines the ML-like concurrent heap language
    • The subfolder lib contains a few derived constructions within this language, e.g., parallel composition. Most notable here s lib/barrier, the implementation and proof of a barrier as described in http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/2818638.
  • The folder proofmode contains the Iris proof mode, which extends Coq with contexts for persistent and spatial Iris assertions. It also contains tactics for interactive proofs in Iris. Documentation can be found in ProofMode.md.
  • The folder tests contains modules we use to test our infrastructure. Users of the Iris Coq library should not depend on these modules; they may change or disappear without any notice.

Documentation

A LaTeX version of the core logic definitions and some derived forms is available in docs/iris.tex.
