Detailed Description

Transform pointer arithmetic.

Rule for converting integer arithmetic to pointer arithmetic. A string of INT_ADDs is converted into PTRADDs and PTRSUBs.

Basic algorithm: Starting with a varnode of known pointer type (with known size):

• Generate list of terms added to pointer
• Find all terms that are multiples of pointer size
• Find all terms that are smaller than pointer size
• Find sum of constants smaller than pointer size
• Multiples get converted to PTRADD
• Constant gets converted to nearest subfield offset
• Everything else is just added back on

We need to be wary of most things being in the units of the space being pointed at. Type calculations are always in bytes so we need to convert between space units and bytes.

Member Function Documentation

applyOp()

int4 RulePtrArith::applyOp ( PcodeOp *  op, Funcdata &  data  )

virtual

Attempt to apply this Rule.

This method contains the main logic for applying the Rule. It must use a given PcodeOp as the point at which the Rule applies. If it does apply, changes are made directly to the function and 1 (non-zero) is returned, otherwise 0 is returned.

Parameters

op	is the given PcodeOp where the Rule may apply
data	is the function to which to apply

Reimplemented from Rule.

clone()

virtual Rule* RulePtrArith::clone ( const ActionGroupList &  grouplist ) const

inlinevirtual

Clone the Rule.

If this Rule is a member of one of the groups in the grouplist, this returns a clone of the Rule, otherwise NULL is returned.

Parameters

grouplist

is the list of groups being cloned

Returns

the cloned Rule or NULL

Implements Rule.

getOpList()

void RulePtrArith::getOpList ( vector< uint4 > &  oplist ) const

virtual

List of op codes this rule operates on.

Populate the given array with all possible OpCodes this Rule might apply to. By default, this method returns all possible OpCodes

Parameters

oplist

is the array to populate

Reimplemented from Rule.
