# title: Abstract specification of Tendermint in Ivy
|
|
# ---
|
|
|
|
# Here we define an abstract version of the Tendermint specification. We use
|
|
# two main forms of abstraction: a) We abstract over how information is
|
|
# transmitted (there is no network). b) We abstract functions using relations.
|
|
# For example, we abstract over a node's current round, instead only tracking
|
|
# with a relation which rounds the node has left. We do something similar for
|
|
# the `lockedRound` variable. This is in order to avoid using a function from
|
|
# node to round, and it allows us to emit verification conditions that are
|
|
# efficiently solvable by Z3.
|
|
|
|
# This specification also defines the observations that are used to adjudicate
|
|
# misbehavior. Well-behaved nodes faithfully observe every message that they
|
|
# use to take a step, while Byzantine nodes can fake observations about
|
|
# themselves (including withholding observations). Misbehavior is defined using
|
|
# the collection of all observations made (in reality, those observations must
|
|
# be collected first, but we do not model this process).
