Detailed Description

MCDisassembler - Superclass for all disassemblers. Consumes a memory region and provides an array of assembly instructions.

Definition at line 27 of file MCDisassembler.h.


Member Enumeration Documentation

Ternary decode status. Most backends will just use Fail and Success, however some have a concept of an instruction with understandable semantics but which is architecturally incorrect. An example of this is ARM UNPREDICTABLE instructions which are disassemblable but cause undefined behaviour.

Because it makes sense to disassemble these instructions, there is a "soft fail" failure mode that indicates the MCInst& is valid but architecturally incorrect.

The enum numbers are deliberately chosen such that reduction from Success->SoftFail ->Fail can be done with a simple bitwise-AND:

LEFT & TOP = | Success Unpredictable Fail --------------+----------------------------------- Success | Success Unpredictable Fail Unpredictable | Unpredictable Unpredictable Fail Fail | Fail Fail Fail

An easy way of encoding this is as 0b11, 0b01, 0b00 for Success, SoftFail, Fail respectively.

virtual DecodeStatus llvm::MCDisassembler::getInstruction ( MCInst instr,
uint64_t &  size,
const MemoryObject region,
uint64_t  address,
raw_ostream vStream,
raw_ostream cStream 
) const [pure virtual]

getInstruction - Returns the disassembly of a single instruction.

Parameters:
instr- An MCInst to populate with the contents of the instruction.
size- A value to populate with the size of the instruction, or the number of bytes consumed while attempting to decode an invalid instruction.
region- The memory object to use as a source for machine code.
address- The address, in the memory space of region, of the first byte of the instruction.
vStream- The stream to print warnings and diagnostic messages on.
cStream- The stream to print comments and annotations on.
Returns:
- MCDisassembler::Success if the instruction is valid, MCDisassembler::SoftFail if the instruction was disassemblable but invalid, MCDisassembler::Fail if the instruction was invalid.

Implemented in llvm::X86Disassembler::X86GenericDisassembler, and llvm::AArch64Disassembler.

void MCDisassembler::setSymbolizer ( std::unique_ptr< MCSymbolizer Symzer)

Set Symzer as the current symbolizer. This takes ownership of Symzer, and deletes the previously set one.
