Confusing message during execution

Confusing message during execution

abakst opened this issue 4 years ago · 7 comments

Hi,

I noticed this output while running approxmc:

c WHAAAAT Detach issue. All below must be 1 to work ---
c -- can_detach: 1
c -- mfinder.no_irred_nonxor_contains_clash_vars(): 0
c -- !conf.gaussconf.autodisable: 1
c -- conf.xor_detach_reattach: 1

I'm not quite sure how to interpret this. I'm mostly concerned with distinguishing between two cases: does this indicate that a cryptominisat error that invalidates the approxmc results? Or is it just an unexpected case that does not affect the correctness results?

Potentially of interest:
This particular CNF was generated by simplifying SMTLIB constraints with z3 (including applying some tactics that eliminate unconstrained variables). mis did not produce an MIS for the instance.

The following is printed when execution starts:

c -- header says num vars:         216610
c -- header says num clauses:     1729257
c -- clauses added: 1729257
c -- xor clauses added: 0
c -- vars added 254984

The message indicates a performance related issue and does not indicate any issue with correctness.

If you are using Z3 to bit-blast, I would strongly suggest you to use projected counting formulation where the sampling set is the set of variables corresponding to original SMT variables and excludes all the additional variables.

Fantastic! Thanks! I'll look into projected counting.

Please reopen this, Kuldeep -- this needs fixing, it was not meant to show that warning. I'll dig into this later today :) Thanks, Mate

Hi!

Thanks for reporting. Can you please let me know what was the full command line you gave, and what was the initial few lines ouf output of approxmc, when it started up? Something like:

Sorry, missed the command line. It was just approxmc path/to/constraints.dimacs

Ah, good catch, thanks, fixed! :)
