5  * This is the online Runtime Verification (RV) interface.
6  *
7  * RV is a lightweight (yet rigorous) method that complements classical
8  * exhaustive verification techniques (such as model checking and
9  * theorem proving) with a more practical approach to complex systems.
10  *
11  * RV works by analyzing the trace of the system's actual execution,
12  * comparing it against a formal specification of the system behavior.
13  * RV can give precise information on the runtime behavior of the
14  * monitored system while enabling the reaction for unexpected
15  * events, avoiding, for example, the propagation of a failure on
16  * safety-critical systems.
17  *
18  * The development of this interface roots in the development of the
19  * paper:

31  * == Runtime monitor interface ==
32  *
33  * A monitor is the central part of the runtime verification of a system.
34  *
35  * The monitor stands in between the formal specification of the desired
36  * (or undesired) behavior, and the trace of the actual system.
37  *
38  * In Linux terms, the runtime verification monitors are encapsulated
39  * inside the "RV monitor" abstraction. A RV monitor includes a reference
40  * model of the system, a set of instances of the monitor (per-cpu monitor,
41  * per-task monitor, and so on), and the helper functions that glue the
42  * monitor to the system via trace. Generally, a monitor includes some form
43  * of trace output as a reaction for event parsing and exceptions,
44  * as depicted bellow:

63  *
64  * This file implements the interface for loading RV monitors, and
65  * to control the verification session.
66  *
67  * == Registering monitors ==
68  *
69  * The struct rv_monitor defines a set of callback functions to control
70  * a verification session. For instance, when a given monitor is enabled,
71  * the "enable" callback function is called to hook the instrumentation
72  * functions to the kernel trace events. The "disable" function is called
73  * when disabling the verification session.
74  *
75  * A RV monitor is registered via:
76  *   int rv_register_monitor(struct rv_monitor *monitor);
77  * And unregistered via:
78  *   int rv_unregister_monitor(struct rv_monitor *monitor);
79  *
80  * == User interface ==
81  *
82  * The user interface resembles kernel tracing interface. It presents
83  * these files:
84  *
85  *  "available_monitors"
86  *    - List the available monitors, one per line.
87  *
88  *    For example:
89  *      # cat available_monitors
90  *      wip
91  *      wwnr
92  *
93  *  "enabled_monitors"
94  *    - Lists the enabled monitors, one per line;
95  *    - Writing to it enables a given monitor;
96  *    - Writing a monitor name with a '!' prefix disables it;
97  *    - Truncating the file disables all enabled monitors.
98  *
99  *    For example:
100  *      # cat enabled_monitors
101  *      # echo wip > enabled_monitors
102  *      # echo wwnr >> enabled_monitors
103  *      # cat enabled_monitors
104  *      wip
105  *      wwnr
106  *      # echo '!wip' >> enabled_monitors
107  *      # cat enabled_monitors
108  *      wwnr
109  *      # echo > enabled_monitors
110  *      # cat enabled_monitors
111  *      #
112  *
113  *    Note that more than one monitor can be enabled concurrently.
114  *
115  *  "monitoring_on"
116  *    - It is an on/off general switcher for monitoring. Note
117  *    that it does not disable enabled monitors or detach events,
118  *    but stops the per-entity monitors from monitoring the events
119  *    received from the instrumentation. It resembles the "tracing_on"
120  *    switcher.
121  *
122  *  "monitors/"
123  *    Each monitor will have its own directory inside "monitors/". There
124  *    the monitor specific files will be presented.
125  *    The "monitors/" directory resembles the "events" directory on
126  *    tracefs.
127  *
128  *    For example:
129  *      # cd monitors/wip/
130  *      # ls
131  *      desc  enable
132  *      # cat desc
133  *      auto-generated wakeup in preemptive monitor.
134  *      # cat enable
135  *      0
136  *
137  *  For further information, see:
138  *   Documentation/trace/rv/runtime-verification.rst
