(** The state of the iteration has three components: - [aval]: A mapping from program points to values of type [L.t] representing the candidate solution found so far. - [worklist]: A worklist of program points that remain to be considered. - [visited]: A set of program points that were visited already (i.e. put on the worklist at some point in the past).  Only the first two components are computationally relevant.  The third is a ghost variable used only for stating and proving invariants. For this reason, [visited] is defined at sort [Prop] so that it is erased during program extraction. *)

(** Kildall's algorithm, in pseudo-code, is as follows: << while worklist is not empty, do extract a node n from worklist compute out = transf n aval[n] for each successor s of n: compute in = lub aval[s] out if in <> aval[s]: aval[s] := in worklist := worklist union {s} visited := visited union {s} end if end for end while return aval >> *)

(** There are several ways to build the initial state.  For forward dataflow analyses, the initial worklist is the function entry point, and the initial mapping sets the function entry point to the given abstract value, and leaves unset all other program points, which corresponds to [L.bot] initial abstract values. *)

(** For backward analyses (viewed as forward analyses on the reversed CFG), the following two variants are more useful.  Both start with an empty initial mapping, where all program points start at [L.bot]. The first initializes the worklist with a given set of entry points in the reversed CFG.  (See the backward dataflow solver below for how this list is computed.)  The second start state construction initializes the worklist with all program points of the given CFG. *)

(** ** Monotonicity properties *)
(** We first show that the [aval] and [visited] parts of the state evolve monotonically: - at each step, the values of the [aval[n]] either remain the same or increase with respect to the [optge] ordering; - every node visited in the past remains visited in the future. *)
(** ** Correctness invariant *)
(** The following invariant is preserved at each iteration of Kildall's algorithm: for all visited program point [n], either [n] is in the worklist, or the inequations associated with [n] ([aval[s] >= transf n aval[n]] for all successors [s] of [n]) hold.  In other terms, the worklist contains all nodes that were visited but do not yet satisfy their inequations.  The second part of the invariant shows that nodes that already have an abstract value associated with them have been visited. *)
