Analysis of correct synchronization of operating system components

Most of the software model checker tools do not scale well on complicated software. Our goal was to develop a tool, which provides an adjustable balance between precise and slow software model checkers and fast and imprecise static analyzers. The key idea of the approach is an abstraction over the precise thread interaction and analysis for each thread in a separate way, but together with a specific environment, which models effects of other threads. The environment contains a description of potential actions over the shared data and synchronization primitives, and conditions for its application. Adjusting the precision of the environment, one can achieve a required balance between speed and precision of the complete analysis. A formal description of the suggested approach was performed within a Configurable Program Analysis theory. It allows formulating assumptions and proving the soundness of the approach under the assumptions. For efficient data race detection we use a specific memory model, which allows to distinguish memory domains into the disjoint set of regions, which correspond to a data types. An implementation of the suggested approach into the CPAchecker framework allows reusing an existed approaches with minimal changes. Implementation of additional techniques according to the extended theory allows to increase the precision of the analysis. Results of the evaluation allow confirming scalability and practical usability of the approach.
