Traverse ADT fields before concluding no interior mutability
has_unsafecell_transitive returns false for an ADT after checking only its own name and generic arguments, but it never walks the ADT's declared field types from type_decls. That means types like struct S { c: Cell<u32> } are misclassified as non-interior-mutable unless S itself is one of the hardcoded wrapper names, so Effect::PossibleAliasing will be missed for shared refs to such structs.

Reject or discharge PossibleAliasing before checked composition
check_opacity_effects treats Effect::PossibleAliasing as already discharged (empty branch), and compose_function_contracts_checked also whitelists it as non-blocking, so composition succeeds even when no aliasing mementos were provided. This contradicts the intended refusal semantics for unresolved aliasing and effectively disables enforcement for the new effect path.

Pull request overview
This PR extends provekit-walk’s Rust LLBC lifter to surface potential aliasing hazards as an explicit effect (Effect::PossibleAliasing) and to derive (auto-mint) disjointness evidence for &mut formal pairs via an AliasingMemento, with the intent that the substrate can refuse composition unless aliasing is discharged.
Changes:
- Added a new aliasing analysis module intended to detect interior mutability transitively from Charon type JSON.
- Introduced
Effect::PossibleAliasing,AliasingMemento/AliasingStatus, and anauto_minted_mementosfield onFunctionContractMemento. - Updated LLBC lifting to (a) emit
PossibleAliasingfor shared refs with interior mutability and (b) auto-mintDisjointmementos for&mut-formal pairs; updated marriage classification and demo formatting accordingly.

Review summary on this PR before merge: 4-5 P1 soundness / substrate-correctness issues from chatgpt-codex + Copilot. P1: Aliasing detection misses interior mutability inside ADT fields. P1: PossibleAliasing whitelisted as discharged in composition. P1: Memento CID doesn't commit to auto-minted aliasing evidence (substrate-correctness). P1: AliasingMemento kind violates codebase kebab-case convention. P1: adt_name_for_id def_id-shape mismatch for local decls. P1: Untagged double-wrapping in generic recursion. These are correctness issues, not editorial. Three of them (whitelisted discharge, missing CID commitment, ADT-field traversal gap) defeat the PR's stated purpose. Recommend addressing all six inline before merge. |
|
Holding this PR: not merging until the P1s land. One framing note for whoever picks it up. Order of priority within the six. The six P1s split into two architectural layers, not one. Five are mechanism-level (interior-mutability traversal, def_id shape, Untagged wrapping, kebab-case kind, opacity-discharge whitelist). One is substrate-level: the auto_minted_mementos field is not in the canonical Value, so the contract CID does not commit to it. This is the only one that defeats the substrate's federation property: two parties holding the same content-addressed contract can disagree on what aliasing was minted, because the bytes that hash do not include the auto-minted record. The five mechanism-level concerns are corrigible inside the existing module surface. The substrate-level one is the architecture call. Fix it first; the others fall into place around it. Concrete shape for the canonical-Value fix (P1c). Look at how other multi-field memento variants are canonicalized in If The kebab-case decision (P1d) is now-or-never. Once mementos with The discharge whitelist (P1b) is the test that proves the effect is doing work. If The other three (P1a, P1e, P1f) are tractable in an afternoon. ADT field traversal (P1a): walk Add tests for each fix; the module's doc comment makes promises that the current implementation doesn't keep, and the tests are how those promises stop being aspirational. I won't be the one merging this. Whoever owns the branch should push the revisions and re-request review. |

visit or by changing the key to the fully instantiated type (include type
parameters) instead of just `def_id`; update the logic around the `if let

aliasing.rs and ensure `PossibleAliasing` detection now considers the per-path

considered equivalent by check_aliasing_discharged(); update to_jcs_value() (and
the related aliasing_mementos_to_value() comparator) to canonicalize the pair
ordering (e.g., sort the two formals lexicographically) before constructing the
JCS Value and ensure the comparator/sort also includes the status field so
identical-name duplicates are deterministic, keeping the symbol names
to_jcs_value(), aliasing_mementos_to_value(), and check_aliasing_discharged() as
points of change.
- Around line 353-355: FunctionContractMemento now contains new lifetime
metadata fields formal_regions and return_region but build_value() and
build_memento_value() do not serialize them, so the canonical contract bytes
(and resulting CID) omit lifetime data; update build_value() and
build_memento_value() to include serializing
FunctionContractMemento.formal_regions and .return_region into the canonical
contract/memento representation (follow the existing ordering/encoding used for
other fields) so that the LLBC-enriched regions become part of the contract
identity.
- Around line 394-423: The check_aliasing_discharged implementation currently
only inspects self.auto_minted_mementos and therefore never considers
verifier-supplied aliasing proofs; change it to query the canonical memento
pool/lookup abstraction (OpacityMementoLookup) used elsewhere in opacity rather
than directly iterating auto_minted_mementos: replace the coverage check in
check_aliasing_discharged with a call into the lookup (or pool) API (e.g., a
method like lookup.has_aliasing_memento(formal_a, formal_b) or equivalent) so
verifier-provided mementos are considered, and apply the same refactor to the
analogous checks mentioned in the other spots (the other aliasing-discharge
loops at the two similar sites) so all aliasing discharge paths go through the
shared lookup abstraction.
In `@implementations/rust/provekit-walk/src/llbc_lift.rs`:
- Around line 398-406: pre_with_regions currently merges region_facts into the
pre contract but post_formula is finalized earlier so Outlives facts are not
propagated to the return-side; mirror the same merging logic for the post
contract: build a post_with_regions by checking if region_facts.is_empty() then
clone post_formula, else if post_formula matches IrFormula::Atomic { name ==
"true", args.is_empty() } then use simplify_conjunction(region_facts), else
create operands = vec![post_formula.clone()] ; operands.extend(region_facts) and
set IrFormula::And { operands }; then use post_with_regions where post_formula
was previously used so Outlives facts are preserved at return.
In `@implementations/rust/provekit-walk/src/marriage.rs`:
- Around line 215-223: The Identical-agreement branch detects LLBC-only
PossibleAliasing but marry() still begins from ast.clone(), dropping LLBC borrow
metadata; change marry() so when you return
LayerAgreement::LlbcExtra(LlbcExtraCategory::BorrowState) you build the merged
contract by starting from a merge of ast and llbc (not ast.clone()),
deterministically combining EffectSet (merge llbc.effects into the
merged.effects with a stable ordering), and also copying LLBC-only fields
(auto_minted_mementos, the new region fields, and any PossibleAliasing effects)
into the merged contract; update or add tests around
marry()/LayerAgreement::LlbcExtra and Effect::PossibleAliasing to cover married
contracts that must preserve LLBC borrow evidence.
In `@implementations/rust/provekit-walk/tests/fixtures/region_longer.llbc`:
- Around line 57-66: The fixture encodes the outlives pair in the wrong
direction: in the Rust source longer<'a, 'b: 'a> region index 1 ('b) outlives
index 0 ('a), so the "regions_outlive" pair should be [ { "Body": 1 }, { "Body":
0 } ] not [ { "Body": 0 }, { "Body": 1 } ]; update the regions_outlive entry in
the fixture so the first element is Body(1) and the second is Body(0) so that
the lifter (llbc_lift.rs) will emit Outlives(region_a, region_b) with the
longer-lived region as the first argument and make the test
region_longer_emits_outlives_b_a reflect the intended direction.
In `@implementations/rust/provekit-walk/tests/fixtures/region_static.llbc`:
- Around line 228-271: Statement id=4 in the fixture for function give_static
incorrectly assigns a plain Copy of local 1 (type u32) into local 0 (type
&'static u32); change the second Assign element for statement id=4 so that it
produces a reference-to-promoted-constant (i.e., a Ref/Promoted or otherwise a
Literal reference with Static=true) rather than a Copy of an integer: update the
part that currently emits "Use: Copy: Local 1" to emit a reference/Literal that
matches local 0's type (&'static u32), ensuring the Assign for local 0 is
structurally a Ref to a static/promoted u32 consistent with the function
give_static signature.

Make the cycle check path-local, not global.
visited is never unwound, so a sibling branch that reuses the same ADT id with different type arguments can be skipped incorrectly. For example, if one field visits Wrapper<u32> first, a later Wrapper<Cell<u32>> will hit Line 43 and return false before inspecting the interior-mutating generic. That under-reports PossibleAliasing for generic wrappers.
Use path-local cycle detection here: either remove the ADT id from visited on unwind, or key the visit by the fully instantiated type rather than only by def_id.

Canonicalize aliasing pairs before hashing them.
check_aliasing_discharged() already treats (a,b) and (b,a) as the same relation, but to_jcs_value() preserves whichever order the producer emitted and aliasing_mementos_to_value() sorts on those raw fields. Two equivalent bundles can therefore discharge identically yet produce different autoMintedMementos bytes/CIDs. Normalize the pair before encoding/sorting, and include status in the comparator so same-name duplicates are deterministic.

Commit the new lifetime metadata into the canonical contract value.
FunctionContractMemento now stores formal_regions and return_region, but build_value()/build_memento_value() never serialize them. After LLBC region enrichment, recomputing the CID will still hash the same bytes as a contract with no lifetime metadata, so the new C.9 data is not actually part of contract identity.

FunctionContractMemento now contains new lifetime metadata fields formal_regions
and return_region but build_value() and build_memento_value() do not serialize
them, so the canonical contract bytes (and resulting CID) omit lifetime data;
update build_value() and build_memento_value() to include serializing
FunctionContractMemento.formal_regions and .return_region into the canonical
contract/memento representation (follow the existing ordering/encoding used for
other fields) so that the LLBC-enriched regions become part of the contract
identity.

Route aliasing discharge through the verifier lookup, not only the embedded bundle.
This path only checks self.auto_minted_mementos, and OpacityMementoLookup has no aliasing hook. For the new shared-&T PossibleAliasing cases, that means a verifier-supplied aliasing proof can never unblock composition here unless the contract itself is mutated to carry it. The discharge API should go through the same pool abstraction the rest of opacity uses.

The check_aliasing_discharged implementation currently only inspects
self.auto_minted_mementos and therefore never considers verifier-supplied
aliasing proofs; change it to query the canonical memento pool/lookup
abstraction (OpacityMementoLookup) used elsewhere in opacity rather than
directly iterating auto_minted_mementos: replace the coverage check in
check_aliasing_discharged with a call into the lookup (or pool) API (e.g., a
method like lookup.has_aliasing_memento(formal_a, formal_b) or equivalent) so
verifier-provided mementos are considered, and apply the same refactor to the
analogous checks mentioned in the other spots (the other aliasing-discharge
loops at the two similar sites) so all aliasing discharge paths go through the
shared lookup abstraction.

Avoid storing 0-based and 1-based region ids in the same map.
This map aliases distinct lifetimes as soon as there is more than one region. With 'a at index 0 and 'b at index 1, Line 340 first makes key 1 -> 'a, then Line 337 for the second region overwrites key 1 -> 'b. Any Body(1) that uses the 1-based encoding now resolves to the wrong lifetime.
Use one canonical key space here and make the fallback explicit during lookup instead of inserting both conventions into the same HashMap.

Propagate the new Outlives facts into the post contract too.
post_formula is finalized before region_facts exist, so these signature-level lifetime constraints only land in pre_with_regions. That breaks the existing invariant in this function that pre contributions still hold at return, and it drops Outlives facts from the return-side contract.

pre_with_regions currently merges region_facts into the pre contract but
post_formula is finalized earlier so Outlives facts are not propagated to the
return-side; mirror the same merging logic for the post contract: build a
post_with_regions by checking if region_facts.is_empty() then clone
post_formula, else if post_formula matches IrFormula::Atomic { name == "true",
args.is_empty() } then use simplify_conjunction(region_facts), else create
operands = vec![post_formula.clone()] ; operands.extend(region_facts) and set
IrFormula::And { operands }; then use post_with_regions where post_formula was
previously used so Outlives facts are preserved at return.

Borrow-state differences are classified here, but still lost from the merged contract.
This new branch correctly notices LLBC-only PossibleAliasing, but marry() still starts from ast.clone(). The substrate-facing merged contract therefore drops the LLBC-only borrow metadata/evidence (PossibleAliasing, auto_minted_mementos, and the new region fields), so the new C.8/C.9 information never reaches the record that downstream composition actually consumes.
Suggested direction
let mut merged = ast.clone();
+merged.effects = merge_effect_sets(&ast.effects, &llbc.effects);
+merged.auto_minted_mementos = llbc.auto_minted_mementos.clone();
+merged.formal_regions = llbc.formal_regions.clone();
+merged.return_region = llbc.return_region.clone();You’ll likely also want a deterministic merge for EffectSet plus coverage around married contracts that carry PossibleAliasing.

The Identical-agreement branch detects LLBC-only PossibleAliasing but marry()
still begins from ast.clone(), dropping LLBC borrow metadata; change marry() so
when you return LayerAgreement::LlbcExtra(LlbcExtraCategory::BorrowState) you
build the merged contract by starting from a merge of ast and llbc (not
ast.clone()), deterministically combining EffectSet (merge llbc.effects into the
merged.effects with a stable ordering), and also copying LLBC-only fields
(auto_minted_mementos, the new region fields, and any PossibleAliasing effects)
into the merged contract; update or add tests around
marry()/LayerAgreement::LlbcExtra and Effect::PossibleAliasing to cover married
contracts that must preserve LLBC borrow evidence.

regions_outlive pair encodes the wrong outlives direction.
The Rust source is longer<'a, 'b: 'a>, meaning 'b (index 1) outlives 'a (index 0). In llbc_lift.rs (lines 367–368), the semantics are explicit: each pair encodes "region_a outlives region_b", and the lifter emits Outlives(region_a, region_b) where the first argument is the longer-lived region. The correct encoding for 'b: 'a is [Body(1), Body(0)], but the fixture has [Body(0), Body(1)], which emits Outlives('a, 'b) instead. The test region_longer_emits_outlives_b_a (line 3037) has a name that explicitly promises the correct direction but only validates that both regions are present, not their order—allowing this bug to pass undetected.

Body statement id=4 has a structural type mismatch in the fixture.
Statement id=4 copies local 1 (type u32) into local 0 (type &'static u32). This violates LLBC type consistency: a value of type u32 cannot be assigned to a reference-typed slot without a Ref operation. For the source fn give_static() -> &'static u32 { &7 }, a structurally valid body would use a promoted constant reference, not a plain Copy of an integer value.
The test region_static_emits_static_region() only validates signature-level region extraction (formals, formal_regions, return_region) and never traverses the function body. The lifter's body-processing functions extract patterns and effects but do not perform type consistency validation, so this mismatch is benign in practice. However, the fixture should be corrected to emit valid LLBC.
