    OPAL is a Scala-based framework for the static analysis, manipulation and creation of Java bytecode.

    OPAL is a Scala-based framework for the static analysis, manipulation and creation of Java bytecode. OPAL is designed with performance, scalability and adaptability in mind.

    Its main components are:

    • a library (Common) which provides generally useful data-structures and algorithms for static analyses.
    • a framework for implementing lattice based static analyses (Static Analysis Infrastructure)
    • a framework for parsing Java bytecode (Bytecode Infrastructure) that can be used to create arbitrary representations.
    • a library to create a one-to-one in-memory representation of Java bytecode (Bytecode Disassembler).
    • a library to create a representation of Java bytecode that facilitates writing simple static analyses (Bytecode Representation - org.opalj.br).
    • a scalable, easily customizable framework for the abstract interpretation of Java bytecode (Abstract Interpretation Framework - org.opalj.ai).
    • a library to extract dependencies between code elements and to facilitate checking architecture definitions.
    • a library for the lightweight manipulation and creation of Java bytecode (Bytecode Assembler).

    General Design Decisions

    Thread Safety

    Unless explicitly noted, OPAL is thread safe. I.e., the classes defined by OPAL can be considered to be thread safe unless otherwise stated. (For example, it is possible to read and process class files concurrently without explicit synchronization on the client side.)

    No null Values

    Unless explicitly noted, OPAL does not null values I.e., fields that are accessible will never contain null values and methods will never return null. If a method accepts null as a value for a parameter or returns a null value it is always explicitly documented. In general, the behavior of methods that are passed null values is undefined unless explicitly documented.

    No Typecasts for Collections

    For efficiency reasons, OPAL sometimes uses mutable data-structures internally. After construction time, these data-structures are generally represented using their generic interfaces (e.g., scala.collection.{Set,Map}). However, a downcast (e.g., to add/remove elements) is always forbidden as it would effectively prevent thread-safety.

    Assertions

    OPAL makes heavy use of Scala's Assertion Facility to facilitate writing correct code. Hence, for production builds (after thorough testing(!)) it is highly recommend to build OPAL again using -Xdisable-assertions.

    Note

    This framework assumes that the analyzed bytecode is valid; i.e., the JVM's bytecode verifier would be able to verify the code. Furthermore, load-time errors (e.g., LinkageErrors) are – by default – completely ignored to facilitate the analysis of parts of a project. In general, if the presented bytecode is not valid, the result is undefined (i.e., OPAL may report meaningless results, crash or run indefinitely).

  • package domain

    This package contains definitions of common domains that can be used for the implementation of analyses.

    This package contains definitions of common domains that can be used for the implementation of analyses.

    Types of Domains

    In general, we distinguish two types of domains. First, domains that define a general interface (on top of the one defined by Domain), but do not directly provide an implementation. Hence, whenever you develop a new Domain you should consider implementing/using these domains to maximize reusability. Second, Domains that implement a specific interface (trait). In this case, we further distinguish between domains that provide a default implementation (per interface only one of these Domains can be used to create a final Domain) and those that can be stacked and basically refine the overall functionality.

    Examples

    • Domains That Define a General Interface
      • Origin defines two types which domains that provide information abou the origin of a value should consider to implement.
      • TheProject defines a standard mechanism how a domain can access the current project.
      • ...
    • Domains That Provide a Default Implementation
    • Domains That Implement Stackable Functionality
      • org.opalj.ai.domain.RecordThrownExceptions records information about all uncaught exceptions by intercepting a Domain's respective methods. However, it does provide a default implementation. Hence, a typical pattern is:
    class MyDomain extends Domain with ...
        with DefaultHandlingOfMethodResults with RecordThrownExceptions

    Thread Safety

    Unless explicitly documented, a domain is never thread-safe. The general programming model is to use one Domain object per code block/method and therefore, thread-safety is not required for Domains that are used for the evaluation of methods. However domains that are used to adapt/transfer values should be thread safe (see org.opalj.ai.domain.ValuesCoordinatingDomain for further details).

Abstract Value Members

  1. abstract def isNull: Answer

    If Yes the value is known to always be null at runtime.

    If Yes the value is known to always be null at runtime. In this case the upper bound is (has to be) empty. If the answer is Unknown then the analysis was not able to statically determine whether the value is null or is not null. In this case the upper bound is expected to be non-empty. If the answer is No then the value is statically known not to be null. In this case, the upper bound may precisely identify the runtime type or still just identify an upper bound.

    Adapts this value to the given domain (default: throws a domain exception that adaptation is not supported). This method needs to be overridden by concrete Value classes to support the adaptation for a specific domain.

    Supporting the adapt method is primarily necessary when you want to analyze a method that is called by the currently analyzed method and you need to adapt this domain's values (the actual parameters of the method) to the domain used for analyzing the called method.

    Additionally, the adapt method is OPAL's main mechanism to enable dynamic domain-adaptation. I.e., to make it possible to change the abstract domain at runtime if the analysis time takes too long using a (more) precise domain.

    In general an IsReferenceValue abstracts over all potential values and this information is sufficient for subsequent analyses; but in some cases, analyzing the set of underlying values may increase the overall precision and this set is returned by this function. In other words: if baseValues is nonEmpty, then the properties returned by this value are derived from the base values, but still maybe more specific. For example,

    Object o = _;
    if(...) o = f() else o = g();
    // when we reach this point, we generally don't know if the values returned by f and g
    // are non-null; hence, o is potentially null.
    if(o != null)
     // Now, we know that o is not null, but we still don't know if the values returned
     // by f OR g were null and we cannot establish that when we don't know to which value
     // o is actually referring to.

  20. def doJoin(joinPC: Int, other: (ReferenceValues.this)#DomainValue): Update[(ReferenceValues.this)#DomainValue]

    Joins this value and the given value.

    Joins this value and the given value.

    Join is called whenever an instruction is evaluated more than once and, hence, the values found on the paths need to be joined. This method is, however, only called if the two values are two different objects ((this ne value) === true), but both values have the same computational type.

    This basically implements the join operator of complete lattices.

    Example

    For example, joining a DomainValue that represents the integer value 0 with a DomainValue that represents the integer value 1 may return a new DomainValue that precisely captures the range [0..1] or that captures all positive integer values or just some integer value.

    Contract

    this value is always the value that was previously used to perform subsequent computations/analyses. Hence, if this value subsumes the given value, the result has to be either NoUpdate or a MetaInformationUpdate. In case that the given value subsumes this value, the result has to be a StructuralUpdate with the given value as the new value. Hence, this join operation is not commutative. If a new (more abstract) abstract value is created that represents both values the result always has to be a StructuralUpdate. If the result is a StructuralUpdate the framework will continue with the interpretation.

    The termination of the abstract interpretation directly depends on the fact that at some point all (abstract) values are fixed and don't change anymore. Hence, it is important that the type of the update is only a org.opalj.ai.StructuralUpdate if the value has changed in a way relevant for future computations/analyses involving this value. In other words, when two values are joined it has to be ensured that no fall back to a previous value occurs. E.g., if you join the existing integer value 0 and the given value 1 and the result would be 1, then it must be ensured that a subsequent join with the value 0 will not result in the value 0 again.

    Conceptually, the join of an object with itself has to return the object itself. Note, that this is a conceptual requirement as such a call (this.doJoin(..,this)) will not be performed by the abstract interpretation framework; this case is handled by the join method. However, if the join object is also used by the implementation of the domain itself, it may be necessary to explicitly handle self-joins.

    Performance

    In general, the domain should try to minimize the number of objects that it uses to represent values. That is, two values that are conceptually equal should – whenever possible – use only one object. This has a significant impact on functions such as join.

  42. def isValueASubtypeOf(supertype: ReferenceType)(implicit classHierarchy: ClassHierarchy): Answer

    Tests if the type of this value is potentially a subtype of the specified reference type under the assumption that this value is not null.

    Tests if the type of this value is potentially a subtype of the specified reference type under the assumption that this value is not null. This test takes the precision of the type information into account. That is, if the currently available type information is not precise and the given type has a subtype that is always a subtype of the current upper type bound, then Unknown is returned. Given that it may be computationally intensive to determine whether two types have a common subtype it may be better to just return Unknown in case that this type and the given type are not in a direct inheritance relationship.

    Basically, this method implements the same semantics as the ClassHierarchy's isSubtypeOf method, but it additionally checks if the type of this value could be a subtype of the given supertype. I.e., if this value's type identifies a supertype of the given supertype and that type is not known to be precise, the answer is Unknown.

    For example, assume that the type of this reference value is java.util.Collection and we know/have to assume that this is only an upper bound. In this case an answer is No if and only if it is impossible that the runtime type is a subtype of the given supertype. This condition holds, for example, for java.io.File which is not a subclass of java.util.Collection and which does not have any further subclasses (in the JDK). I.e., the classes java.io.File and java.util.Collection are not in an inheritance relationship. However, if the specified supertype would be java.util.List the answer would be unknown.

    Refines this value's isNull property.

    Refines this value's isNull property.

    Precondition

    This method is only defined if a previous isNull test returned Unknown and we are now on the branch where we know that the value is now null or is not null.

    pc

    The program counter of the instruction that was the reason for the refinement.

    isNull

    This value's new null-ness property. isNull either has to be Yes or No. The refinement to Unknown neither makes sense nor is it supported.

    returns

    The updated operand stack and register values.

    Refines the upper bound of this value's type to the given supertype.

    Precondition

    This method is only to be called if a previous "subtype of" test (this.isValueASubtypeOf(supertype)) returned Unknown and we are now on the branch where the value has to be of the respective type. Hence, this method only handles the case where supertype is more strict than this type's upper type bound.

    returns

    The updated operand stack and register values.

  58. final def summarize(pc: Int): SObjectValue.this

    Creates a summary of this value.

    Creates a summary of this value.

    In general, creating a summary of a value may be useful/required for values that are potentially returned by a called method and which will then be used by the calling method. For example, it may be useful to precisely track the flow of values within a method to be able to distinguish between all sources of a value (E.g., to be able to distinguish between a NullPointerException created by instruction A and another one created by instruction B (A != B).)

    However, from the caller perspective it may be absolutely irrelevant where/how the value was created in the called method and, hence, keeping all information would just waste memory and a summary may be sufficient.

  65. final def upperTypeBound: UIDSet[ObjectType]

    The upper bound of the value's type.

    The upper bound of the value's type. The upper bound is empty if this value is null (i.e., isNull == Yes). The upper bound is only guaranteed to contain exactly one type if the type is precise. (i.e., isPrecise == true). Otherwise, the upper type bound may contain one or more types that are not known to be in an inheritance relation, but which will correctly approximate the runtime type.
