Detailed Description

All paths from a (putative) switch variable to the CPUI_BRANCHIND.

This is a container for intersecting paths during the construction of a JumpModel. It contains every PcodeOp from some starting Varnode through all paths to a specific BRANCHIND. The paths can split and rejoin. This also keeps track of Varnodes that are present on all paths, as these are the potential switch variables for the model.

Member Function Documentation

append()

void PathMeld::append

(

const PathMeld &

op2

)

Append a new set of paths to this set of paths.

The new paths must all start at the common end-point of the paths in this container. The new set of melded paths start at the original common start point for this container, flow through this old common end-point, and end at the new common end-point.

Parameters

op2	is the set of paths to be appended

getEarliestOp()

PcodeOp * PathMeld::getEarliestOp

(

int4

pos

)

const

Find earliest PcodeOp that has a specific common Varnode as input.

The Varnode is specified by an index into sequence of Varnodes common to all paths in this PathMeld. We find the earliest (as in executed first) PcodeOp, within this PathMeld that uses the Varnode as input.

Parameters

pos	is the index of the Varnode

Returns

the earliest PcodeOp using the Varnode

markPaths()

void PathMeld::markPaths	(	bool	val,
		int4	startVarnode
	)

Mark PcodeOps paths from the given start.

The starting Varnode, common to all paths, is provided as an index. All PcodeOps up to the final BRANCHIND are (un)marked.

Parameters

val	is true for marking, false for unmarking
startVarnode	is the index of the starting PcodeOp

meld()

void PathMeld::meld

(

vector< PcodeOpNode > &

path

)

Meld a new path into this container.

Add the new path, recalculating the set of Varnodes common to all paths. Paths are trimmed to ensure that any path that splits from the common intersection must eventually rejoin.

Parameters

path	is the new path of PcodeOpNode edges to meld, in reverse execution order

set() [1/3]

void PathMeld::set

(

const PathMeld &

op2

)

Copy paths from another container.

Parameters

op2	is the path container to copy from

set() [2/3]

void PathMeld::set

(

const vector< PcodeOpNode > &

path

)

Initialize this to be a single path.

This container is initialized to hold a single data-flow path.

Parameters

path	is the list of PcodeOpNode edges in the path (in reverse execution order)

set() [3/3]

void PathMeld::set	(	PcodeOp *	op,
		Varnode *	vn
	)

Initialize this container to a single node "path".

Parameters

op	is the one PcodeOp in the path
vn	is the one Varnode (input to the PcodeOp) in the path
