Detailed Description

Variables internal to P4Tools. These variables do not exist in the P4 program itself, but are generated and added to the environment by the P4Tools tooling. These variables are also used for SMT solvers as symbolic variables.

Class Documentation

P4::P4Tools::FormatOptions

struct P4::P4Tools::FormatOptions

Defines common formatting options.

Class Members
bool	padOutput = true	The output will be padded on the left with zeroes to visually represent the full requested width.
bool	usePrefix = true	The string will contain a prefix denoting the numeral system. Hexadecimal strings are prefixed with "0x", whereas binary strings are prefixed with "0b" and octal strings with "0".
bool	useSeparator = false	Insert separators into the produced string. The output is formatted in groups of four digits separated by the underscore character. If not a multiple of four, the first group will have the remainder digits; for example, "0xBAD_BEEF" for hex or "0b10_1010" for binary.
bool	useUpperCaseHex = true	In case of hex strings, use uppercase instead of lowercase letters.

Typedef Documentation

CompilerResultOrError

using P4::P4Tools::CompilerResultOrError = std::optional<std::reference_wrapper<const CompilerResult>>

P4Tools compilers may return an error instead of a compiler result. This is a convenience definition for the return value.

ConstraintsVector

using P4::P4Tools::ConstraintsVector = std::vector<const IR::Expression *>

A list of constraints. These constraints may take the form of "x == 8w1","x != y", where "x" and "y" are symbolic variables. They are expressed in P4C IR form and may be consumed by SMT or similar solvers.

Z3DeclaredVariablesMap

using P4::P4Tools::Z3DeclaredVariablesMap = std::vector<ordered_map<unsigned, const IR::SymbolicVariable *>>

A stack of maps, which map Z3-internal expression IDs of declared Z3 variables to their corresponding P4 state variable. The maps are pushed and pop according to the solver push() and pop() operations.

Function Documentation

argumentsToTypeDeclarations()

std::vector< const IR::Type_Declaration * > P4::P4Tools::argumentsToTypeDeclarations	(	const IR::IGeneralNamespace *	ns,
		const IR::Vector< IR::Argument > *	inputArgs )

Converts the list of arguments @inputArgs to a list of type declarations. Any names appearing in the arguments are resolved with @ns. This is mainly useful for inspecting package instances.

convertBigIntToBytes()

std::vector< uint8_t > P4::P4Tools::convertBigIntToBytes	(	const big_int &	dataInt,
		int	targetWidthBits,
		bool	padLeft = false )

Converts a big integer input into a vector of bytes with the size targetWidthBits /8. If the integer value is smaller than the request bit size and

Parameters

padLeft

is false, padding is added on the right-hand side of the vector (the "least-significant" side). Otherwise, padding is added on the left-hand side, (the "most-significant side")

Chunk size is 8 bits, i.e., a byte.

convertToIpv4String()

std::optional< std::string > P4::P4Tools::convertToIpv4String

(

const std::vector< uint8_t > &

byteArray

)

Convert a byte array into a IPv4 string of the form "x.x.x.x".

Returns

std::nullopt if the conversion fails.

convertToIpv6String()

std::optional< std::string > P4::P4Tools::convertToIpv6String

(

const std::vector< uint8_t > &

byteArray

)

Convert a byte array into a IPv4 string of the form "xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx".

Returns

std::nullopt if the conversion fails.

Chunk size is 8 bits, i.e., a byte.

convertToMacString()

std::optional< std::string > P4::P4Tools::convertToMacString

(

const std::vector< uint8_t > &

byteArray

)

Convert a byte array into a MAC string of the form "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx".

stride.

printDebug()

template<typename... Arguments>

void P4::P4Tools::printDebug	(	const std::string &	fmt,

(

const std::optional< std::filesystem::path > &

basePath = std::nullopt

)

Print a performance report if performance logging is enabled. If a file is provided, it will be written to the file.
