 I'm excited to be here too. Let's first do a little poll. Who of the audience has heard of Nova or who has worked with Nova? Maybe a quick short of hands. Okay. I think about half the folks. So today I'll be giving a talk about Nova hypervisor all of the Nova which is our port of Nova to the most recent arm architecture. And since only half of you know Nova very well, the first part of the talk will go a little bit into detail about what Nova is and where we came from. Then the second part of the talk I'll talk about virtualization on arm V8A. Arm A is the A profile for the performance course. There's also arm R for real-time course and arm M. We are talking about cortex A. And then I'll conclude the talk with the current status. We'll do a little demo here. We've already put some equipment here and then I'll talk a little bit about roadmap. So those of you who've been following the micro-common dev room today, you've seen this system which is Nova on x86 already in action when Norman gave his talk on G-node. So Nova on x86 is a system that has existed for more than 10 years. And the way that virtualization works on x86 is that without the virtualization extensions you have two processor rings, really four of which only two are used. You have ring zero which is used by the kernel and ring three which is user mode. And you have an operating system and applications running in those two modes. This virtualization, these rings are now called guest rings which is why we call them ring zero G and ring three G. And you get the same set of rings duplicated for host mode. We have ring zero H and ring three H. So ring zero host is occupied by the Nova micro hypervisor and ring three host is occupied by what we call hyper processes. And the whole G-node framework that you saw two talks ago is a framework that runs in ring three host. It's interesting to note that the Nova micro hypervisor is the only component that runs privileged and everything else, all the colorful apps that run in the host and everything that runs in guest runs deep privileged. There's a little footnote there that says obviously we have no control of firmware. What's also interesting to note is that we give every virtual machine its own instance of a user level virtual machine monitor which means that should something go wrong in a virtual machine, should you have a VM escape, should an instruction not be virtualized properly or something like that, then a VM escape will only affect that VMM instance and the rest of the system will not be affected. So now we took this system and we said let's build something like that on ARMv8. And the next slide shows what does Nova look like on an ARMv8 architecture. So at the bottom we have the hardware and then we have four privileged levels which ARM calls execution levels. So starting at the top we have EL0 which is user mode, EL1 which is supervisor mode where kernel runs, EL2 is called hypervisor mode this is where Nova lives and then we have EL3 which is called monitor mode in which a firmware monitor sits that can switch between a non-secure and a secure world. And we do not own this monitor, we do not control it and we also do not control a trusted execution environment like an opti that runs along the side. But in the world that we own which is the top left corner the non-secure world upwards from EL2 Nova is the only privileged component and all the other properties that we had on X86 including a virtual machine monitor, pure guest VM and the deep privileged host environment, all of that has been carried forward to ARM. Now let's talk a little bit about Nova. Nova is hypervisor, micro hypervisor that takes the best ideas from micro kernels, capability based systems, high performance virtualization and puts all of that together in a small piece of code where the X86 version is less than 10,000 and the ARM version currently is less than 7,000 lines of code. It is based around capabilities. What does that mean? We have a bunch of kernel objects that I've shown in the middle. We have protection domains, these are address bases. We have execution contacts, you can think of them as threads or virtual CPUs. We have portals, these are communication endpoints by which protection domains and threads inside them can communicate and all these kernel objects cannot be referenced directly. Instead, we give every protection domain that needs to access them a capability. What is the capability? You can think of a capability as a pointer to a kernel object plus associated permissions. Possession of a capability gives you the right to invoke that capability and to access that object. If you don't have a capability to an object, you can neither name the object nor access it. That's a very powerful security system. SEO4 has the same and a lot of newer micro kernels do. You can build really powerful other systems on top as Norman has demonstrated with Genome. The same principle, by the way, works for memory where you can think of a virtual address as being a capability to a physical memory page with read-write execute permissions. That same principle is also applied for NOVA. We have multiple spaces, we have an object space for these capabilities and we have a memory space for delegation of writes to memory. In the older version, the X86 version, we used to have a mapping database that tracked all these dependencies of who gave the capability to whom and things like that. When we got rid of all that, we replaced it with a new hypercall called control protection domain, which takes two capabilities, the sender and the receiver protection domain, and you have a take-grant model where the possession of, let's say, a capability A and a capability B for those two protection domains, you can say, take the two capabilities from slots two and three in protection domain A and put them in slots six and seven of protection domain B. Obviously, we have more than eight slots. This is just for illustrative purposes. If anyone wants to refer to a capability, they give a select door which is a number and index into that space and say, I want to do something with capability two. This is how it works, it's like a file script. So upon this, we built some basic abstractions and these are the basic abstractions that the NOVA version on X86 has had for a long time. So on the left, you can see two protection domain, think of them as two address spaces, two applications that want to communicate with each other and in the protection domain A, call us red and EC here, and it has a scheduling context attached to it. And those of you who saw Garnet's talk this morning know that the scheduling context is a really nice abstraction for expressing scheduling parameters and for delegating it along a call to implement priority inheritance and NOVA has had this for 10 years. And we also have on the other side a call the execution context that has no scheduling context. For the very same reason that Garnet gave that you can completely account the execution of a server invocation to the caller. So what would that look like? The caller makes a hyper call, in this case called IPC call. It gives a capability, or a selector to a caller and what's called an MTD. We call this message transfer descriptor and the message transfer descriptor tells NOVA how many words to copy from the UTCB of the caller to the UTCB of the callee. So the UTCB is like a message in an outbox. It's very abstract and the same mechanism applies no matter whether you're on X86 or on ARM. So once that call has been made we now transition over to the right side. The situation looks like this. The scheduling context has been given to the callee. This achieves priority inheritance or in case of real-time bandwidth inheritance. The callee can now execute because it has a time slice. The time is accounted to the caller and at some point the callee is going to do a reply. It invokes IPC reply, gives a message transfer descriptor, says how many words do I want to copy back from my UTCB to the caller and then we are back to the left side. This is the basic mechanism by which protection domains and threads in protection domains communicate with each other. And this also illustrates how the different kernel objects sort of come into play there. So the MTD defines the number of words to copy between those two yellow UTCBs and we'll see in the next slide how the MTD is also used for other purposes. Now I said NOVA is a micro hypervisor. This means at some point we need to deal with virtual machines, with virtual CPUs, with emulating instructions and devices. So a lot of you will notice that this slide looks very, very similar to the previous slide. Why is that? Because we layer VM exit handling and the emulation exactly on top of IPC. So the difference is that we now have two protection domains that I'll call the virtual machine in which an execution context run that is a VCPU and we have a VMM which in this case is a server. It provides the virtual machine service and the execution context here we call it handler. So at some point the virtual CPU is going to take a VM exit on x86 or an exception on ARM which requires the attention of the virtualization there. This VM exit takes us into NOVA. NOVA will save the state in a page which we call virtual machine control block because we came from x86. And then NOVA is going to synthesize an IPC call on behalf of the virtual CPU send it to the handler. And the question is now what state do we transmit? And that state is called MTD arc and it comes out of a portal where every event has its own portal. So you can say if I see this event here's that state that I want. If I see some other event here's this state that I want. And then the VMM gets this message in its UTCB and the reply works exactly like an IPC reply except that the handler specifies an MTD arc the result gets stored in a VMCB and when the VCPU resumes or erads back to the guest that state will be restored. So MTD arc is similar to the MTD that I showed you before which copies state around except this time between VMCB and UTCB and not between two UTCBs. Same with the scheduling context the entire accounting of the emulation goes onto the scheduling context of the VCPU. Now we get into ARM territory and before we do that I'll show you how we hide the differences between x86 and ARM and you don't have to understand all these details but here I've shown you the MTD the MTD arc for ARM and x86 which is basically a bit field that describes the different fields and these will also be listed in the NOVA interface specification. So the VMM gets to decide for every event which parts of the architectural states it wants to see and by using this architecture dependent message transfer descriptor we can completely reuse all the mechanisms it's just a message that looks different depending on which architecture you're on. FPU is an interesting state because it's kind of large. So on ARM it's 32 128 bits words which is 512 bytes. This is something you do not want to switch on every VM exit or on every context switch so we switch the FPU lazily which has some consequences. So we call this thread which currently has its state saved in the FPU we call it the FPU owner and then whenever some other thread wants to access the FPU we take the state from the owner we save it lazily give it to the other guy. So that means that the hypervisor has to do two things when we switch away from the FPU owner we have to disable the FPU to see any other access trapping and when we switch back to the FPU owner we have to re-enable the FPU because we don't want the owner to trap the owner has its state in the FPU and that means on a typical kernel exit pass you have multiple conditions to check like am I going back to the FPU owner is the FPU enabled if not and this can all be very time consuming because it's branch heavy code. So how do we make this efficient? Nova has a notion of hazards which are exceptional conditions that the kernel needs to fix up before it goes back to user mode and we have two types we have a CPU hazard for certain exceptional conditions on the CPU like the CPU needs to reschedule the CPU needs to restore a certain state and we have the same thing for ECs the EC needs to reload some state the EC has been recalled and things like that so what we do is we overlay two bits of the state from the CPU hazard and the EC hazard namely the state FPU is disabled and the EC is not the FPU owner and FPU is enabled and the EC is the FPU owner and only if the XOR of both states yields a value of one which means these two conditions are out of sync we actually vector through the hazard pass and do we do this FPU switching magic in the fast case where the FPU is already in the right state so it's disabled and the EC is not the owner or it's enabled or it is the owner we will not take the slow pass so these are some of the performance tricks that Nova is using to get really excellent virtualization performance I'll talk a little bit about intra-virtualization on ARM because unlike X86 we get a lot of help from the hardware ARM V8 has the interrupt controller split into two parts there's one part that lives in the chip set which is called which is the upper part the upper box consisting of the gig distributor and the gig redistributor you can think of it like an IOAPIC the distributor is the global part which takes shared peripheral interrupts coming from devices and the redistributors are CPU local parts which take interrupts like core local timer interrupts and counter interrupts and things like that and then the distributor and redistributor send physical interrupts to the CPU interface which is called gig C and then they normally go to the processing element which is your processor so that's the left side of this diagram and this is the thing that gets used when virtualization is not in the game with virtualization you get the right side of this processing element consisting of something called gig H and gig V and there is they created the virtual interface of the gig C which looks exactly the same like the physical CPU interface except that it doesn't get its interrupt from the distributors it gets its interrupt from the hypervisor control interface and this is what Nova drives so what we do is the map gig V directly into the physical address space of the VM so the guest can access it anywhere at once without causing any exits and all the interrupt injections that come from the hypervisor go to the control interface and this control interface autonomously injects interrupts into the guest so this is very efficient how we expose this at the API level is two fold first of all the interrupt injection logic between gig 2 and gig 3 uses a different format which is really not so nice so we abstract on the injection interface the difference is the way we let the VMM always tell us interrupts in gig 3 format and if you run on something older we convert and then we have a hypercall called assign interrupt which the partition manager can use to steer interrupts to specific cores next thing is timer virtualization ARM has a global system counter which distributes the time in the entire system to all the cores and this is exposed on each core in form of two counters and two timer instances one is called the physical timer which is directly reflects the system counter and the other is called virtual timer which has an offset applied or subtracted from the system counter so that you can hide time progression from a guest the good thing is that the physical timer can be trapped so it can be disabled you can trap and emulate it and this is what we do and this emulation works much similar to x86 so the VMM uses a timer interrupt summer 4 to catch this timer expiring and then this interrupt is asynchronously delivered it's much more complicated for the virtual timer because the ARM architecture does not allow you to trap or to intercept the virtual timer which really forces you to context widget so every time we switch from one vcpu to another we context switch the virtual timer which is obviously a little bit ugly from a context state-saving perspective but the good thing is that the timer interrupt will always be synchronous to the execution of the vcpu so timer interrupt can never come when that vcpu is not running and whenever a timer interrupt comes it is for exactly this vcpu so we deliver such a timer interrupt directly synchronously via a portal next thing is I want to talk about is a system MMU system MMU is a crucial piece of a security critical system because you need not only protect applications from viding to each other's address spaces by means of virtual memory and MMU you also need to prevent rogue drivers that can do DMA from DMAing all over the place like overriding the hypervisor overriding the neighboring protection domain and this is what x86 uses an IOMMU for and the ARM concept is called a system MMU so a DMA transaction that arrives at the system MMU on the left side of the picture has two attributes it has a stream ID which identifies which device it's coming from and it has a let's call it a virtual address or an IO address which is where the device wants to DMA to and then ARM has a configuration piece in the SMMU that consists of stream mapping group which allows you to associate streams to translation context so we have two streams mapping to the first translation mapping to the first translation context and two streams mapping to the second translation context so this would be two devices assigned to the same PD and then a translation context directly maps to a DMA page table TLD in the middle that can cache frequently used translations so it's really important to have this piece supported in the hypervisor otherwise DMA is a critical attack vector so there's a limited number of these stream mapping groups and context which is why we let the partition manager manage them and NOVA then manages the translation part keeping the page tables and the TLD consistent assigning devices to PDs and there's an assigned device hyper call for doing this assignment and binding a device to protection domain so with that let's take a look at all the platforms that we currently support we'll do a little demo here in a few minutes we'll do this demo on the top left board which is an Affnit Tiling Ultra96 and the reason we are doing that is precisely because it has an SMMU a lot of the other boards do not but this board has one and we obviously want to use the best infrastructure that we can have we also run on the nxpimx8mquad and those of you who were in Stefan's talk just a couple minutes ago you already saw that board in action and the VMM that we used on top of NOVA was as Stefan pointed out a joint development effort between Badrock and G-Node and it was a lot of fun to work on this together we also run on Reneser's R-Car the difference for the R-Car is that it's actually two clusters of course but also it's a big little system so we also support big little and then as we know Fostom is a community conference and a lot of you have probably gotten a Raspberry Pi 4 so NOVA also runs on that and we also did a lot of prototyping on QMU so naturally we support QMU out of the box the nxp by the way is the only board we have that has a gigs 3 so we have sort of all combinations of different gigs with MMU without SMMU single cluster all of this is supported so with that I'd like to invite my colleague Shantanu up here who will do a little demo for you I'll quickly summarize what we are going to show so we have NOVA hypervisor we have a bunch of devices we'll assign different devices to different virtual machines using SMMU as you can see here in these shaded colors every virtual machine has a bunch of VR interfaces like a virtual ethernet we connect the different virtual machines together using a virtual ethernet switch and we also have a console into every virtual machine using a URT multiplexer with the URT driver being a component in the host that has direct access to the URT hardware so with that I'll give the mic to Shantanu and he will walk you through the demo and show you a bunch of things so UDOT do you make this full screen can you make this full screen I don't know just destroy sorry okay it was that easy okay so going by the picture that UDOT showed earlier so we've now booted into our URT multiplexer this is the administrative console of our multiplexer it's an asynchronous console and we have basically we can cache all the data coming from our virtual machines so we can list the clients that are connected right now so as you see we have three virtual machines so three VMMs we have the console from NOVA we have the MSC that's the master controller that's our root hyper process and then we have the three guests which is an android and two linuxes so just to show you the boot logs maybe from NOVA because we just had the talk so the screen is not big enough but what you see here is the typical boot log you get from NOVA so most of what's here is basically the interrupts are being passed on and configured for the guests so to show you maybe a virtual machine monitor so these are the logs from our VMM this one is hosting an android system so what you see here is pass through for the devices the display the USB controller because of the touch screen attached and also a connection to the vSwitch so we have a virtual switch it connects three virtual machines here like Udo showed earlier so let me quickly get into a guest here so this one is running the network driver so it has our Wi-Fi driver and I'll also set it up to use the virtual console to use the virtual switch and set up DHCP server so that the other machines can get an IP so what I need to do is probably define myself an IP address and also start a DHCP server so to make sure that this is working I have another Linux system this one doesn't have network connection right now but I can run DHCP clients here so now I have a virtual connection and I also got myself an IP address from the other VM we can exercise this interface maybe sending some bits possibly doing throughput test with the other VM sorry I think I put the wrong IP address so I can definitely ping so I put the wrong IP address earlier so we have a throughput of 580 megabits or so between the two virtual machines this is just exercising the interface and because this is the VM you are Wi-Fi driver I can also connect it maybe I'll just set up a quick hotspot on my cell phone not trusting the Wi-Fi here so I just use WPS applicants to set up a Wi-Fi network now I have Wi-Fi on my Linux I have a virtual Ethernet now I can show you the console from Android this is a development build so please ignore all the red logs coming from AC Linux and as you can see here Android has also picked up an IP address because of our DHCP server running so basically what it now needs is just a connection to the internet and to do that I'll just set up NAT tables and make my network VM behave as a router so now my Android should have access to the network this is how we isolate the network driver from Android it's running in a separate virtual machine and Android itself can be connected to the outside world through this connection and because there was already Star Wars shown before this I will probably run some other web page maybe the date and time today so I don't know if people at the back can see I think I mis-typed something this is some issue with my phone so unfortunately not very used to German keyboards but you should see a page loading here telling you the date and time today and I think that is it for the demo it's a very slow internet connection sorry for that but it's kind of loading so we have today's date time getting it from the network so our Android has a network connection so I'll hand it back to Udo to conclude this thanks Shantanu for this really impressive demo Shantanu spent a lot of time working on this together with the other parts of our userland team so it's only fair to let him demo this system in action so let me just repeat what you just saw we showed three VMs an Android with two virtual CPUs and another Linux with a single core so we actually can support SMP and uniprocessor virtual machines we can show different types of virtual machines Android and we saw two different versions of Linux we have virtual devices we have pass-through devices with the SMMU we have a virtual ethernet switch that can connect all the different VMs together we can do host drivers and all of this on an RMV8 system so let's talk a little bit about roadmap because this is obviously not the end of the road we made the ARM port as a rapid prototyping together with our friends from Genote who helped us on the VMM side and we developed this independently on a separate branch which means that today the ARM and the X86 version have a little bit diverged so the next effort that I'll be spending time on is to merge significant portions of the X86 and ARM branch and I said we have roughly 10,000 lines of code on one side and 7,000 on the other side and we can probably get that well below 17,000 or maybe half that or something like that we want to support newer ARM features because ARM has put a lot of cool features into the architecture such as pointer authentication, memory tagging all of which is useful in a secure system in terms of what additional functionality we'll add to NOVA then in the X86 and ARM version you make the hypervisor binary relocatable which means you can move it anywhere in memory and it will run so that's good for different systems which have different physical memory layouts features which will help people build VM introspection on top of NOVA which means you can use the hypervisor to peek into what's happening inside a virtual machine maybe protect stuff inside a virtual machine from the outside we have a lot of ideas how we can improve the current resource management and obviously as part of the effort of merging these two branches we'll also take a look at all the cool things that other people have built on top of NOVA and see which of those are useful for us and there's I bet also a bunch of bug fixes that we haven't yet incorporated. There will always be performance optimizations I think performance is already on par with the best microcurrents that we have but we encourage independent benchmarking and we have a big effort going on around formal verification of the hypervisor code and of the verification of the components that run on top of it and those of you who heard the SL4 talk today know that verifying something is a really hard exercise especially if you're talking about something like S&P8 and especially if you're talking about S&P. So what does formal verification on NOVA roughly look like and I don't want to go into the details here the head of our form message team is here so if there are any detailed questions I will just directly hand those questions to him but to give you a feeling for what that would look like you have a really simple function here and obviously the functions in NOVA are a lot more complicated a function that adds two unsigned 32-bit numbers X and Y and returns the result and what programmers do to make that code formally verifiable is they annotate it with pre and post conditions component-lit already showed a similar structure so what we say here is we have we introduce in the precondition two new variables V1 and V2 that carry integer values V1 and V2 that we bind to the parameters X1 and X2 otherwise the precondition is empty because this function does not touch any global state and we have a post condition that also does not touch any external global state except for the return value and the return value is the sum of V1 plus V2 but since we are adding two 32-bit numbers this addition can obviously overflow so we have to trim the result to a 32-bit value and all the functions in the kernel will be annotated with specifications like this and then we have a tool chain that looks like the bottom of this slide so the way this works is it follows from a high-level perspective we have the source code which is written in cpp or hpp files then we run a tool on it which is called cpp2v cpp2v is a tool that we wrote at bedrock Gregory wrote it the gentleman sitting there it's a clang plug-in which takes the abstract syntax tree of nova and converts it into a cog representation of that abstract syntax tree so what you get out of this is a file called foo.cpp.v or the annotations of the source code which you can either write inline or we nowadays prefer to write them out of line come in a separate file called foo.cpp.spec.v these two files are put in the cog compiler along with semantics of the C++ language and we are also heavily investing in proof automation because proving something, as you heard earlier today is a lot of manual effort and the more you can automate this the faster you can re-prove things the more you make a change which touches only a minor portion of the code there's a high chance that significant portions of that proof will just go through the automation what you get out of it is then a file called foo.cpp.proof.vo which is the machine check proof and this is an ongoing effort so we are not as far as SEO4 but I think the toolchain that we have there is already looking really really good so with that I'll conclude my talk and take questions we just made the source code of the NOVA ARM port public as the rest of NOVA it's available under gplv2 license you can download it from those two links there's a bedrock systems repository and there's the repository where NOVA has always left my private one it's important to pick up the ARM branch not the old x86 branch and there's web pages that have further information, papers, links and so forth and with that I'll conclude the talk and I'll be happy to take any questions you may have where do you see the differentiating points to SEO4? so as far as I understand SEO4 has mostly, so the question was where do we see the differentiating points to SEO4? so I think the major focus of SEO4 has always been on the formal verification of the kernel the major focus for NOVA's existence was always to make virtualization and component-based systems on top of a single hypervisor possible at some point you also have to formally verify to get a compelling security story so this is something where I see SEO4 clearly as the thought leader but performance-wise I think we are very competitive I'm not sure maybe Garnet can comment on that the way I understood it SEO4 only runs on ARMv7 and there's an ongoing effort to port it to ARMv8 so NOVA is now running on ARMv8 you're running on ARMv8? okay so SEO4 also runs on ARMv8 but it's not verified we do not plan to support ARMv7 as a hypervisor interface but we support 32-bit guests which are ARMv7 backward compatible verification bit I do understand that we actually could use some kind of input to form a verifier from the SQL that's my understanding but that's different from having well A design actually breaking down stuff and improving stuff in regard to the design so what you can prove is that A functions probably has specific characteristics but this has nothing about the overall architecture so what is the approach so you need a model so the question was if you have a simple function like this how does this connect to the overall architecture because proving a simple function doesn't prove that your whole system is correct we use a concept called separation logic to be able to reason independently about different functions of the system which makes the whole proof effort very modular which means if you can reason about this function only touches a certain fraction of the state and does not affect anything in the other portion of the state then you can verify that function and you know it doesn't affect the other side you need to prove certain things at different level so we need to have a model of how the system behaves like how NOVA behaves but you also need to show that the source code actually conforms to that model so the system specification and the specification of the NOVA functions will be connected through those annotations the actual source code will be connected to the functional specification of all these functions through the tool cpp2v which shows that the code that the compiler generated the abstract syntax tree conforms to the specification that this function has that's also something that we built okay Gregor you want to take that question? yeah so the question was is the aimful functional correctness so one of the properties that we will prove at bedrock is what we call the bare metal property and the bare metal property in a nutshell expresses that if you execute something in a virtual machine it will behave as if you executed it on bare hardware minus some timing requirements but from a correctness perspective you want to show that execution of something in a VM does not differ except for small timing effects from execution on a bare metal machine and this function or this property obviously also entails that NOVA does not crash and that the VMM emulates the instructions correctly and so forth yes another question so the question was will formal verification require us to re-architect certain aspects of NOVA or do we expect it to be formally verifiable as is I expect that we may find maybe one or two things that we want to change maybe also not because they were incorrect but because they make the verification easier but overall I don't expect too many surprises in terms of code being correct because the exercise is already quite a lot and other people like Geno do too and you've seen the complex scenarios that run on code are we surprised of course of course the question in the middle so the question was we've listed VM introspection and our roadmap what kind of VM introspection do we do right so we provide mechanisms for VM introspection for being able to look at the memory of a virtual machine to be able to look at register state maybe set break points intercept execution control at critical points but these are low level mechanisms the more richer VM introspection features that we built on top we have not yet disclosed so the question was what is our plan for open sourcing the remaining parts of the stack so NOVA has just gone open source the remaining parts of the system will progressively go open source over the course of the next year like we said we jointly developed the user level virtual machine monitor with Geno before we make that public we want to make sure that it really fits their model and our model very well because we want this to be a community effort so we don't want to go out with something that is half baked so we will polish that a little bit before we make it public but the plan is to make the entire virtualization layer basically everything that's shown in the host public come on Gregory the question was will the verification artifacts be open sourced so the answer was we would like to make the artifacts public but this is a separate discussion and we will discuss it offline yep I think Gregory would agree with that there was another question here so the primary use case for the proof automation is that we want the code to be agile not in the development sense but in the sense that we want to add new features we want to make changes, we want to make additions new architecture port and we do not want to go through a lot of manual labor of fixing up the proof so we want to automate this as much as possible so the whole purpose of proof automation is to make the proof go through faster to make the proof less manual and I think we also have a plan to work a lot with academia on developing new tactics to make the proof automation smarter so if anybody is interested in working in these areas talk to Gregory any further questions I think that's it, thank you very much
