Verifying Device Drivers with Pancake

Device driver bugs are the leading cause of OS compromises, and their formal verification is therefore highly desirable. To the best of our knowledge, no realistic and performant driver has been verified for a non-trivial device. We propose Pancake, an imperative language for systems programming that features a well-defined and verification-friendly semantics. Leveraging the verified compiler backend of the CakeML functional language, we develop a compiler for Pancake that guarantees that the binary retains the semantics of the source code. Usng automatic translation of Pancake to the Viper SMT front-end, we verify a performant driver for an Ethernet NIC.

One-loop matrix element emulation with factorisation awareness

In this article we present an emulation strategy for one-loop matrix elements. This strategy is based on the factorisation properties of matrix elements and is an extension of the work presented in arXiv:2107.06625. We show that a percent-level accuracy can be achieved even for large multiplicity processes. The point accuracy obtained is such that it dwarfs the statistical accuracy of the training sample which allows us to use our model to augment the size of the training set by orders of magnitude without additional evaluations of expensive one-loop matrix elements.
