Finds correlations between the removal of headers in the MAU pipeline. In the back end, header removal is represented by the clearing of POV bits, so this analysis really looks at the correlation between when POV bits are cleared.

The input of this analysis is a set expressing the correlations that the client of the analysis is interested in. This is done to avoid any unnecessary exponential blow-up in the size of the result: the input acts as a filter on the results produced.

As a running example, consider a pipeline whose behaviour looks like:

if (foo) { h1.setInvalid(); h2.setInvalid(); } else { h1.setInvalid(); h3.setInvalid(); }

h3.setValid();

if (bar) h4.setInvalid(); if (baz) h5.setInvalid();

Let S1 be the set {{pov1, pov2, pov3, pov4, pov5}}. Given as input to the analysis, S1 indicates that the client is interested in all correlations between all headers.

Let S2 be the set {{pov1, pov2}, {pov2, pov3}, {pov2, pov4}}. Given as input, this set indicates that we are only interested in pairwise correlations between h2 and h1, h3, and h4.

The output of this analysis is a map, wherein each set S in the input is mapped to subsets of S that might be cleared. There may be multiple subsets when different paths through the pipeline result in different POV bits being cleared.

If a header is removed and subsequently added, in the output of this analysis, it will still appear as having been removed.

Given S1 as input to the analysis, the result would resemble

{pov1, po2, pov3, pov4, pov5} ↦ {{pov1, pov2}, {pov1, pov2, pov4}, {pov1, pov2, pov5}, {pov1, pov2, pov4, pov5}, {pov1, pov3}, {pov1, pov3, pov4}, {pov1, pov3, pov5}, {pov1, pov3, pov4, pov5}}

We can expect this kind of result to be exponential in the number of headers.

Alternatively, if S2 were given as input, the result would be:

{pov1, pov2} ↦ {{pov1}, {pov1, pov2}} {pov2, pov3} ↦ {{pov2}, {pov3}} {pov2, pov4} ↦ {{}, {pov2}, {pov4}, {pov2, pov4}}

For clients only interested in pairwise correlations, we can expect the result to be quadratic in the number of headers.
