摘要

几十年来,互联网协议都是使用自然语言指定的。考虑到这些文本中固有的模糊性,协议实现长期以来出现bug也就不足为奇了。在本文中,我们应用自然语言处理(NLP)从规范文本实现半自动化的协议实现。我们的系统Sage可以发现规范中模棱两可或未明确的句子;一旦协议规范的作者澄清了这些,Sage就可以自动生成协议代码。使用Sage,我们在ICMP RFC中发现了5个歧义实例和6个规格不足实例;在修复这些问题之后,Sage能够自动生成与Linux实现完美互操作的代码。我们展示了Sage泛化到BFD、IGMP和NTP的部分,并确定了Sage需要支持的其他概念组件,以泛化到完整的、复杂的协议,如BGP和TCP。

Semi-automated protocol disambiguation and code generation
For decades, Internet protocols have been specified using natural language. Given the ambiguity inherent in such text, it is not surprising that protocol implementations have long exhibited bugs. In this paper, we apply natural language processing (NLP) to effect semi-automated generation of protocol implementations from specification text. Our system, Sage, can uncover ambiguous or under-specified sentences in specifications; once these are clarified by the author of the protocol specification, Sage can generate protocol code automatically. Using Sage, we discover 5 instances of ambiguity and 6 instances of under-specification in the ICMP RFC; after fixing these, Sage is able to automatically generate code that interoperates perfectly with Linux implementations. We show that Sage generalizes to sections of BFD, IGMP, and NTP and identify additional conceptual components that Sage needs to support to generalize to complete, complex protocols like BGP and TCP.
