| Summary: | We present a DPLL SAT solver, which we call TrueSAT, developed in the verification-enabled programming language Dafny. We have fully verified the functional correctness of our solver by constructing machine-checked proofs of its soundness, completeness, and termination. We present a benchmark of the execution time of TrueSAT and we show that it is competitive against an equivalent DPLL solver implemented in C++, although it is still slower than state-of-the-art CDCL solvers. Our solver serves as a significant case study of a machine-verified software system. The benchmark also shows that auto-active verification is a promising approach to increasing trust in SAT solvers, because it combines execution speed with a high degree of trustworthiness. © 2022 by the authors.
