Detailed Description

A Symbol scope for local variables of a particular function.

This acts like any other variable Scope, but is associated with a specific function and the address space where the function maps its local variables and parameters, typically the stack space. This object in addition to managing the local Symbols, builds up information about the stack address space: what portions of it are used for mapped local variables, what portions are used for temporary storage (not mapped), and what portion is for parameters.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ScopeLocal()

ScopeLocal::ScopeLocal ( uint8  id,
AddrSpace spc,
Funcdata fd,
Architecture g 
)

Constructor.

Parameters
idis the globally unique id associated with the function scope
spcis the (stack) address space associated with this function's local variables
fdis the function associated with these local variables
gis the Architecture

Member Function Documentation

◆ applyTypeRecommendations()

void ScopeLocal::applyTypeRecommendations ( void  )

Try to apply recommended data-type information.

Run through the recommended list, search for an input Varnode matching the storage address and try to apply the data-type to it. Do not override existing type lock.

◆ buildVariableName()

string ScopeLocal::buildVariableName ( const Address addr,
const Address pc,
Datatype ct,
int4 &  index,
uint4  flags 
) const
virtual

Given an address and data-type, build a suitable generic symbol name.

Parameters
addris the given address
pcis the address at which the name is getting used
ctis a data-type used to inform the name
indexis a reference to an index used to make the name unique, which will be updated
flagsare boolean properties of the variable we need the name for
Returns
the new variable name

Reimplemented from ScopeInternal.

◆ isUnaffectedStorage()

bool ScopeLocal::isUnaffectedStorage ( Varnode vn) const
inline

Is this a storage location for unaffected registers.

Parameters
vnis the Varnode storing an unaffected register
Returns
true is the Varnode can be used as unaffected storage

◆ markNotMapped()

void ScopeLocal::markNotMapped ( AddrSpace spc,
uintb  first,
int4  sz,
bool  parameter 
)

Mark a specific address range is not mapped.

The given range can no longer hold a mapped local variable. This indicates the range is being used for temporary storage.

Parameters
spcis the address space holding the given range
firstis the starting offset of the given range
szis the number of bytes in the range
parameteris true if the range is being used to store a sub-function parameter

◆ recoverNameRecommendationsForSymbols()

void ScopeLocal::recoverNameRecommendationsForSymbols ( void  )

Run through name recommendations, checking if any match unnamed symbols.

Unlocked symbols that are presented to the decompiler are stored off as recommended names. These can be reattached after the decompiler makes a determination of what the final Symbols are. This method runs through the recommended names and checks if they can be applied to an existing unnamed Symbol.

◆ remapSymbol()

SymbolEntry * ScopeLocal::remapSymbol ( Symbol sym,
const Address addr,
const Address usepoint 
)

Change the primary mapping for the given Symbol to be a specific storage address and use point.

Remove any other mapping and create a mapping based on the given storage.

Parameters
symis the given Symbol to remap
addris the starting address of the storage
usepointis the use point for the mapping
Returns
the new mapping

◆ remapSymbolDynamic()

SymbolEntry * ScopeLocal::remapSymbolDynamic ( Symbol sym,
uint8  hash,
const Address usepoint 
)

Make the primary mapping for the given Symbol, dynamic.

Remove any other mapping and create a new dynamic mapping based on a given size and hash

Parameters
symis the given Symbol to remap
hashis the dynamic hash
usepointis the use point for the mapping
Returns
the new dynamic mapping

◆ resetLocalWindow()

void ScopeLocal::resetLocalWindow ( void  )

Reset the set of addresses that are considered mapped by the scope to the default.

This resets the discovery process for new local variables mapped to the scope's address space. Any analysis removing specific ranges from the mapped set (via markNotMapped()) is cleared.

◆ restructureHigh()

void ScopeLocal::restructureHigh ( void  )

Layout mapped symbols based on HighVariable information.

Define stack Symbols based on HighVariables. This method is called once at the end of decompilation to create the final set of stack Symbols after all data-type propagation has settled. It creates a consistent data-type for all Varnode instances of a HighVariable.

◆ restructureVarnode()

void ScopeLocal::restructureVarnode ( bool  aliasyes)

Layout mapped symbols based on Varnode information.

Define stack Symbols based on Varnodes. This method can be called repeatedly during decompilation. It helps propagate data-types. Unaliased symbols can optionally be marked to facilitate removal of INDIRECT ops, but this is generally done later in the process.

Parameters
aliasyesis true if unaliased Symbols should be marked
