Detailed Description

Simplify predication constructions involving the INT_OR operator.

In this form of predication, two variables are set based on a condition and then ORed together. Both variables may be set to zero, or to some other value, based on the condition and the zero values are such that at least one of the variables is zero.

tmp1 = cond ? val1 : 0;
tmp2 = cond ? 0 : val2;
result = tmp1 | tmp2;

The RuleOrPredicate simplifies this to

if (cond) result = val1; else result = val2;

or to be precise

newtmp = val1 ? val2; // Using a new MULTIEQUAL
result = newtmp;

In an alternate form we have

tmp1 = (val2 == 0) ? val1 : 0
result = tmp1 | val2;

again, one of val1 or val2 must be zero, so this gets replaced with

tmp1 = val1 ? val2
result = tmp1

Member Function Documentation

◆ applyOp()

int4 RuleOrPredicate::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
opis the given PcodeOp where the Rule may apply
datais the function to which to apply

Reimplemented from Rule.

◆ clone()

virtual Rule* RuleOrPredicate::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
grouplistis the list of groups being cloned
Returns
the cloned Rule or NULL

Implements Rule.

◆ getOpList()

void RuleOrPredicate::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
oplistis the array to populate

Reimplemented from Rule.
