An experimental interpreter for [Rust][rust]'s
|
|
[mid-level intermediate representation][mir] (MIR). It can run binaries and
|
|
test suites of cargo projects and detect certain classes of
|
|
[undefined behavior](https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/behavior-considered-undefined.html),
|
|
for example:
|
|
|
|
* Out-of-bounds memory accesses and use-after-free
|
|
* Invalid use of uninitialized data
|
|
* Violation of intrinsic preconditions (an [`unreachable_unchecked`] being
|
|
reached, calling [`copy_nonoverlapping`] with overlapping ranges, ...)
|
|
* Not sufficiently aligned memory accesses and references
|
|
* Violation of *some* basic type invariants (a `bool` that is not 0 or 1, for example,
|
|
or an invalid enum discriminant)
|
|
* **Experimental**: Violations of the [Stacked Borrows] rules governing aliasing
|
|
for reference types
|
|
* **Experimental**: Data races (but no weak memory effects)
|
|
|
|
On top of that, Miri will also tell you about memory leaks: when there is memory
|
|
still allocated at the end of the execution, and that memory is not reachable
|
|
from a global `static`, Miri will raise an error.
|
|
|
|
You can use Miri to emulate programs on other targets, e.g. to ensure that
|
|
byte-level data manipulation works correctly both on little-endian and
|
|
big-endian systems. See
|
|
[cross-interpretation](#cross-interpretation-running-for-different-targets)
|
|
below.
|
|
|
|
Miri has already discovered some [real-world bugs](#bugs-found-by-miri). If you
|
|
found a bug with Miri, we'd appreciate if you tell us and we'll add it to the
|
|
list!
|
|
|
|
However, be aware that Miri will **not catch all cases of undefined behavior**
|
|
in your program, and cannot run all programs:
|
|
|
|
* There are still plenty of open questions around the basic invariants for some
|
|
types and when these invariants even have to hold. Miri tries to avoid false
|
|
positives here, so if your program runs fine in Miri right now that is by no
|
|
means a guarantee that it is UB-free when these questions get answered.
|
|
|
|
In particular, Miri does currently not check that integers/floats are
|
|
initialized or that references point to valid data.
|
|
* If the program relies on unspecified details of how data is laid out, it will
|
|
still run fine in Miri -- but might break (including causing UB) on different
|
|
compiler versions or different platforms.
|
|
* Program execution is non-deterministic when it depends, for example, on where
|
|
exactly in memory allocations end up, or on the exact interleaving of
|
|
concurrent threads. Miri tests one of many possible executions of your
|
|
program. You can alleviate this to some extent by running Miri with different
|
|
values for `-Zmiri-seed`, but that will still by far not explore all possible
|
|
executions.
|
|
* Miri runs the program as a platform-independent interpreter, so the program
|
|
has no access to most platform-specific APIs or FFI. A few APIs have been
|
|
implemented (such as printing to stdout) but most have not: for example, Miri
|
|
currently does not support SIMD or networking.
|
|
* Threading support is not finished yet. E.g., weak memory effects are not
|
|
emulated and spin loops (without syscalls) just loop forever. There is no
|
|
threading support on Windows.

## Using Miri
|
|
|
|
Install Miri on Rust nightly via `rustup`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
rustup +nightly component add miri
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If `rustup` says the `miri` component is unavailable, that's because not all
|
|
nightly releases come with all tools. Check out
|
|
[this website](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup-components-history) to
|
|
determine a nightly version that comes with Miri and install that using `rustup
|
|
toolchain install nightly-YYYY-MM-DD`. Either way, all of the following commands
|
|
assume the right toolchain is pinned via `rustup override set nightly` or
|
|
`rustup override set nightly-YYYY-MM-DD`. (Alternatively, use `cargo
|
|
+nightly`/`cargo +nightly-YYYY-MM-DD` for each of the following commands.)
|
|
|
|
Now you can run your project in Miri:
|
|
|
|
1. Run `cargo clean` to eliminate any cached dependencies. Miri needs your
|
|
dependencies to be compiled the right way, that would not happen if they have
|
|
previously already been compiled.
|
|
2. To run all tests in your project through Miri, use `cargo miri test`.
|
|
3. If you have a binary project, you can run it through Miri using `cargo miri run`.
|
|
|
|
The first time you run Miri, it will perform some extra setup and install some
|
|
dependencies. It will ask you for confirmation before installing anything.
|
|
|
|
`cargo miri run/test` supports the exact same flags as `cargo run/test`. For
|
|
example, `cargo miri test filter` only runs the tests containing `filter` in
|
|
their name.
|
|
|
|
You can pass arguments to Miri via `MIRIFLAGS`. For example,
|
|
`MIRIFLAGS="-Zmiri-disable-stacked-borrows" cargo miri run` runs the program
|
|
without checking the aliasing of references.
|
|
|
|
When compiling code via `cargo miri`, the `cfg(miri)` config flag is set for code
|
|
that will be interpret under Miri. You can use this to ignore test cases that fail
|
|
under Miri because they do things Miri does not support:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
#[test]
|
|
#[cfg_attr(miri, ignore)]
|
|
fn does_not_work_on_miri() {
|
|
tokio::run(futures::future::ok::<_, ()>(()));
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There is no way to list all the infinite things Miri cannot do, but the
|
|
interpreter will explicitly tell you when it finds something unsupported:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
error: unsupported operation: can't call foreign function: bind
|
|
...
|
|
= help: this is likely not a bug in the program; it indicates that the program \
|
|
performed an operation that the interpreter does not support
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Cross-interpretation: running for different targets
|
|
|
|
Miri can not only run a binary or test suite for your host target, it can also
|
|
perform cross-interpretation for arbitrary foreign targets: `cargo miri run
|
|
--target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` will run your program as if it was a Linux
|
|
program, no matter your host OS. This is particularly useful if you are using
|
|
Windows, as the Linux target is much better supported than Windows targets.
|
|
|
|
You can also use this to test platforms with different properties than your host
|
|
platform. For example `cargo miri test --target mips64-unknown-linux-gnuabi64`
|
|
will run your test suite on a big-endian target, which is useful for testing
|
|
endian-sensitive code.
|
|
|
|
### Running Miri on CI
|
|
|
|
To run Miri on CI, make sure that you handle the case where the latest nightly
|
|
does not ship the Miri component because it currently does not build. For
|
|
example, you can use the following snippet to always test with the latest
|
|
nightly that *does* come with Miri:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
MIRI_NIGHTLY=nightly-$(curl -s https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup-components-history/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/miri)
|
|
echo "Installing latest nightly with Miri: $MIRI_NIGHTLY"
|
|
rustup set profile minimal
|
|
rustup override set "$MIRI_NIGHTLY"
|
|
rustup component add miri
|
|
|
|
cargo miri test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Common Problems
|
|
|
|
When using the above instructions, you may encounter a number of confusing compiler
|
|
errors.
|
|
|
|
### "note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace"
|
|
|
|
You may see this when trying to get Miri to display a backtrace. By default, Miri
|
|
doesn't expose any environment to the program, so running
|
|
`RUST_BACKTRACE=1 cargo miri test` will not do what you expect.
|
|
|
|
To get a backtrace, you need to disable isolation
|
|
[using `-Zmiri-disable-isolation`][miri-flags]:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
RUST_BACKTRACE=1 MIRIFLAGS="-Zmiri-disable-isolation" cargo miri test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### "found possibly newer version of crate `std` which `<dependency>` depends on"
|
|
|
|
Your build directory may contain artifacts from an earlier build that have/have
|
|
not been built for Miri. Run `cargo clean` before switching from non-Miri to
|
|
Miri builds and vice-versa.
|
|
|
|
#### "found crate `std` compiled by an incompatible version of rustc"
|
|
|
|
You may be running `cargo miri` with a different compiler version than the one
|
|
used to build the custom libstd that Miri uses, and Miri failed to detect that.
|
|
Try deleting `~/.cache/miri`.
|
|
|
|
#### "no mir for `std::rt::lang_start_internal`"
|
|
|
|
This means the sysroot you are using was not compiled with Miri in mind. This
|
|
should never happen when you use `cargo miri` because that takes care of setting
|
|
up the sysroot. If you are using `miri` (the Miri driver) directly, see the
|
|
[contributors' guide](CONTRIBUTING.md) for how to use `./miri` to best do that.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Miri `-Z` flags and environment variables
|
|
[miri-flags]: #miri--z-flags-and-environment-variables
|
|
|
|
Miri adds its own set of `-Z` flags, which are usually set via the `MIRIFLAGS`
|
|
environment variable:
|
|
|
|
* `-Zmiri-check-number-validity` enables checking of integer and float validity
|
|
(e.g., they must be initialized and not carry pointer provenance) as part of
|
|
enforcing validity invariants. This has no effect when
|
|
`-Zmiri-disable-validation` is present.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-compare-exchange-weak-failure-rate=<rate>` changes the failure rate of
|
|
`compare_exchange_weak` operations. The default is `0.8` (so 4 out of 5 weak ops will fail).
|
|
You can change it to any value between `0.0` and `1.0`, where `1.0` means it
|
|
will always fail and `0.0` means it will never fail.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-disable-abi-check` disables checking [function ABI]. Using this flag
|
|
is **unsound**.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-disable-alignment-check` disables checking pointer alignment, so you
|
|
can focus on other failures, but it means Miri can miss bugs in your program.
|
|
Using this flag is **unsound**.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-disable-data-race-detector` disables checking for data races. Using
|
|
this flag is **unsound**.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-disable-stacked-borrows` disables checking the experimental
|
|
[Stacked Borrows] aliasing rules. This can make Miri run faster, but it also
|
|
means no aliasing violations will be detected. Using this flag is **unsound**
|
|
(but the affected soundness rules are experimental).
|
|
* `-Zmiri-disable-validation` disables enforcing validity invariants, which are
|
|
enforced by default. This is mostly useful to focus on other failures (such
|
|
as out-of-bounds accesses) first. Setting this flag means Miri can miss bugs
|
|
in your program. However, this can also help to make Miri run faster. Using
|
|
this flag is **unsound**.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-disable-isolation` disables host isolation. As a consequence,
|
|
the program has access to host resources such as environment variables, file
|
|
systems, and randomness.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-isolation-error=<action>` configures Miri's response to operations
|
|
requiring host access while isolation is enabled. `abort`, `hide`, `warn`,
|
|
and `warn-nobacktrace` are the supported actions. The default is to `abort`,
|
|
which halts the machine. Some (but not all) operations also support continuing
|
|
execution with a "permission denied" error being returned to the program.
|
|
`warn` prints a full backtrace when that happen; `warn-nobacktrace` is less
|
|
verbose. `hide` hides the warning entirely.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-env-exclude=<var>` keeps the `var` environment variable isolated from the host so that it
|
|
cannot be accessed by the program. Can be used multiple times to exclude several variables. On
|
|
Windows, the `TERM` environment variable is excluded by default. This has no effect unless
|
|
`-Zmiri-disable-validation` is also set.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-env-forward=<var>` forwards the `var` environment variable to the interpreted program. Can
|
|
be used multiple times to forward several variables. This has no effect if
|
|
`-Zmiri-disable-validation` is set.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-ignore-leaks` disables the memory leak checker, and also allows some
|
|
remaining threads to exist when the main thread exits.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-measureme=<name>` enables `measureme` profiling for the interpreted program.
|
|
This can be used to find which parts of your program are executing slowly under Miri.
|
|
The profile is written out to a file with the prefix `<name>`, and can be processed
|
|
using the tools in the repository https://github.com/rust-lang/measureme.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-panic-on-unsupported` will makes some forms of unsupported functionality,
|
|
such as FFI and unsupported syscalls, panic within the context of the emulated
|
|
application instead of raising an error within the context of Miri (and halting
|
|
execution). Note that code might not expect these operations to ever panic, so
|
|
this flag can lead to strange (mis)behavior.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-seed=<hex>` configures the seed of the RNG that Miri uses to resolve
|
|
non-determinism. This RNG is used to pick base addresses for allocations.
|
|
When isolation is enabled (the default), this is also used to emulate system
|
|
entropy. The default seed is 0. **NOTE**: This entropy is not good enough
|
|
for cryptographic use! Do not generate secret keys in Miri or perform other
|
|
kinds of cryptographic operations that rely on proper random numbers.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-symbolic-alignment-check` makes the alignment check more strict. By
|
|
default, alignment is checked by casting the pointer to an integer, and making
|
|
sure that is a multiple of the alignment. This can lead to cases where a
|
|
program passes the alignment check by pure chance, because things "happened to
|
|
be" sufficiently aligned -- there is no UB in this execution but there would
|
|
be UB in others. To avoid such cases, the symbolic alignment check only takes
|
|
into account the requested alignment of the relevant allocation, and the
|
|
offset into that allocation. This avoids missing such bugs, but it also
|
|
incurs some false positives when the code does manual integer arithmetic to
|
|
ensure alignment. (The standard library `align_to` method works fine in both
|
|
modes; under symbolic alignment it only fills the middle slice when the
|
|
allocation guarantees sufficient alignment.)
|
|
* `-Zmiri-track-alloc-id=<id>` shows a backtrace when the given allocation is
|
|
being allocated or freed. This helps in debugging memory leaks and
|
|
use after free bugs.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-track-call-id=<id>` shows a backtrace when the given call id is
|
|
assigned to a stack frame. This helps in debugging UB related to Stacked
|
|
Borrows "protectors".
|
|
* `-Zmiri-track-pointer-tag=<tag>` shows a backtrace when the given pointer tag
|
|
is popped from a borrow stack (which is where the tag becomes invalid and any
|
|
future use of it will error). This helps you in finding out why UB is
|
|
happening and where in your code would be a good place to look for it.
|
|
* `-Zmiri-tag-raw-pointers` makes Stacked Borrows assign proper tags even for raw pointers. This can
|
|
make valid code using int-to-ptr casts fail to pass the checks, but also can help identify latent
|
|
aliasing issues in code that Miri accepts by default. You can recognize false positives by
|
|
`<untagged>` occurring in the message -- this indicates a pointer that was cast from an integer,
|
|
so Miri was unable to track this pointer. Note that it is not currently guaranteed that code that
|
|
works with `-Zmiri-tag-raw-pointers` also works without `-Zmiri-tag-raw-pointers`, but for the
|
|
vast majority of code, this will be the case.
|
|
|
|
[function ABI]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/items/functions.html#extern-function-qualifier
|
|
|
|
Some native rustc `-Z` flags are also very relevant for Miri:
|
|
|
|
* `-Zmir-opt-level` controls how many MIR optimizations are performed. Miri
|
|
overrides the default to be `0`; be advised that using any higher level can
|
|
make Miri miss bugs in your program because they got optimized away.
|
|
* `-Zalways-encode-mir` makes rustc dump MIR even for completely monomorphic
|
|
functions. This is needed so that Miri can execute such functions, so Miri
|
|
sets this flag per default.
|
|
* `-Zmir-emit-retag` controls whether `Retag` statements are emitted. Miri
|
|
enables this per default because it is needed for [Stacked Borrows].
|
|
|
|
Moreover, Miri recognizes some environment variables:
|
|
|
|
* `MIRI_LOG`, `MIRI_BACKTRACE` control logging and backtrace printing during
|
|
Miri executions, also [see "Testing the Miri driver" in `CONTRIBUTING.md`][testing-miri].
|
|
* `MIRIFLAGS` (recognized by `cargo miri` and the test suite) defines extra
|
|
flags to be passed to Miri.
|
|
* `MIRI_LIB_SRC` defines the directory where Miri expects the sources of the
|
|
standard library that it will build and use for interpretation. This directory
|
|
must point to the `library` subdirectory of a `rust-lang/rust` repository
|
|
checkout. Note that changing files in that directory does not automatically
|
|
trigger a re-build of the standard library; you have to clear the Miri build
|
|
cache manually (on Linux, `rm -rf ~/.cache/miri`).
|
|
* `MIRI_SYSROOT` (recognized by `cargo miri` and the test suite)
|
|
indicates the sysroot to use. To do the same thing with `miri`
|
|
directly, use the `--sysroot` flag.
|
|
* `MIRI_TEST_TARGET` (recognized by the test suite) indicates which target
|
|
architecture to test against. `miri` and `cargo miri` accept the `--target`
|
|
flag for the same purpose.
|
|
|
|
The following environment variables are *internal* and must not be used by
|
|
anyone but Miri itself. They are used to communicate between different Miri
|
|
binaries, and as such worth documenting:
|
|
|
|
* `MIRI_BE_RUSTC` can be set to `host` or `target`. It tells the Miri driver to
|
|
actually not interpret the code but compile it like rustc would. With `target`, Miri sets
|
|
some compiler flags to prepare the code for interpretation; with `host`, this is not done.
|
|
This environment variable is useful to be sure that the compiled `rlib`s are compatible
|
|
with Miri.
|
|
* `MIRI_CALLED_FROM_XARGO` is set during the Miri-induced `xargo` sysroot build,
|
|
which will re-invoke `cargo-miri` as the `rustc` to use for this build.
|
|
* `MIRI_CALLED_FROM_RUSTDOC` when set to any value tells `cargo-miri` that it is
|
|
running as a child process of `rustdoc`, which invokes it twice for each doc-test
|
|
and requires special treatment, most notably a check-only build before interpretation.
|
|
This is set by `cargo-miri` itself when running as a `rustdoc`-wrapper.
|
|
* `MIRI_CWD` when set to any value tells the Miri driver to change to the given
|
|
directory after loading all the source files, but before commencing
|
|
interpretation. This is useful if the interpreted program wants a different
|
|
working directory at run-time than at build-time.
|
|
* `MIRI_VERBOSE` when set to any value tells the various `cargo-miri` phases to
|
|
perform verbose logging.

## Miri `extern` functions
|
|
|
|
Miri provides some `extern` functions that programs can import to access
|
|
Miri-specific functionality:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
#[cfg(miri)]
|
|
extern "Rust" {
|
|
/// Miri-provided extern function to mark the block `ptr` points to as a "root"
|
|
/// for some static memory. This memory and everything reachable by it is not
|
|
/// considered leaking even if it still exists when the program terminates.
|
|
///
|
|
/// `ptr` has to point to the beginning of an allocated block.
|
|
fn miri_static_root(ptr: *const u8);
|
|
|
|
/// Miri-provided extern function to obtain a backtrace of the current call stack.
|
|
/// This returns a boxed slice of pointers - each pointer is an opaque value
|
|
/// that is only useful when passed to `miri_resolve_frame`
|
|
/// The `flags` argument must be `0`.
|
|
fn miri_get_backtrace(flags: u64) -> Box<[*mut ()]>;
|
|
|
|
/// Miri-provided extern function to resolve a frame pointer obtained
|
|
/// from `miri_get_backtrace`. The `flags` argument must be `0`,
|
|
/// and `MiriFrame` should be declared as follows:
|
|
///
|
|
/// ```rust
|
|
/// #[repr(C)]
|
|
/// struct MiriFrame {
|
|
/// // The name of the function being executed, encoded in UTF-8
|
|
/// name: Box<[u8]>,
|
|
/// // The filename of the function being executed, encoded in UTF-8
|
|
/// filename: Box<[u8]>,
|
|
/// // The line number currently being executed in `filename`, starting from '1'.
|
|
/// lineno: u32,
|
|
/// // The column number currently being executed in `filename`, starting from '1'.
|
|
/// colno: u32,
|
|
/// // The function pointer to the function currently being executed.
|
|
/// // This can be compared against function pointers obtained by
|
|
/// // casting a function (e.g. `my_fn as *mut ()`)
|
|
/// fn_ptr: *mut ()
|
|
/// }
|
|
/// ```
|
|
///
|
|
/// The fields must be declared in exactly the same order as they appear in `MiriFrame` above.
|
|
/// This function can be called on any thread (not just the one which obtained `frame`).
|
|
fn miri_resolve_frame(frame: *mut (), flags: u64) -> MiriFrame;
|
|
|
|
/// Miri-provided extern function to begin unwinding with the given payload.
|
|
///
|
|
/// This is internal and unstable and should not be used; we give it here
|
|
/// just to be complete.
|
|
fn miri_start_panic(payload: *mut u8) -> !;
|
|
}
|
|
```

## History
|
|
|
|
This project began as part of an undergraduate research course in 2015 by

@solson at the [University of Saskatchewan][usask]. There are [slides] and a
|
|
[report] available from that project. In 2016, @oli-obk joined to prepare miri
|
|
for eventually being used as const evaluator in the Rust compiler itself
|
|
(basically, for `const` and `static` stuff), replacing the old evaluator that
|
|
worked directly on the AST. In 2017, @RalfJung did an internship with Mozilla
|
|
and began developing miri towards a tool for detecting undefined behavior, and
|
|
also using miri as a way to explore the consequences of various possible
|
|
definitions for undefined behavior in Rust. @oli-obk's move of the miri engine
|
|
into the compiler finally came to completion in early 2018. Meanwhile, later
|
|
that year, @RalfJung did a second internship, developing miri further with
|
|
support for checking basic type invariants and verifying that references are
|
|
used according to their aliasing restrictions.
