Fri 17 Oct 2025 13:45 - 14:00 at Orchid Small - Semantics

We present the first and most comprehensive formal semantics for the Solana eBPF bytecode language used in smart contracts on the Solana blockchain platform. Our formalization accurately captures all binary-level instructions of the Solana eBPF instruction set architecture. This semantics is structured in a small-step style, facilitating the formalization of the Solana eBPF interpreter within Isabelle/HOL. We provide a semantics validation framework that extracts an executable semantics from our formalization to test against the original implementation of the Solana eBPF interpreter. This approach introduces a novel lightweight and non-invasive method to relax the limitations of the existing Isabelle/HOL extraction mechanism. Furthermore, we illustrate potential applications of our semantics in the formalization of the main components of the Solana eBPF virtual machine.
