Add a new AST node type for representing the nodes created starting from
the dummy nodes built in place of a `switch` statement.
These nodes contain also the information needed for emitting the code
relative to the checks performed by the node (the condition and the case
value).
This node type inherits from the `IfNode` node type, to avoid
reimplementing all the methods for its handling and transformation.
Add a pass which removes the `unexpectedpc` as successor of the `switch`
instructions. This simplifies the subsequent analyses.
This pass also removes the unreachable basic blocks dandling around (as
the `unexpectedpc` and `anypc` blocks when they are not needed).
When a `while` loop is matched and promoted, add to every `continue`
node in the current scope the instructions needed for the computation of
the loop condition.
Match `do-while` and `while` loops, transform the in our AST preserving the
information about the `IfNode` which computes the condition of loop, and
emit them in the decompiled code.
Also added a pass which removes useless continue nodes.
In certain locations we were using a `std::vector`, taking a reference
to it, adding elements and ending up in a reference invalidation issue.
This commit replaces those `std::vectors` with `std::deque` which do not
present this issue.
This commit introduces the `enforce-abi` pass, which consumes the
information provided by the ABI analysis and enforces them in the
isolated functions adding actual arguments.
This commit also rewrites the logic of `ResultsPool::finalize` and
changes the semantic of `Yes` statements on arguments to `YesOrDead`.
`empty-newpc` is a simple pass suppose to provide an empty body for
the `newpc` function, allowing further optimization pass to take out
all its calls.
`ZipMapIterator` allows you to iterate in parallel over two
`std::map`-like containers.
In the ABI analysis, this allows us to be much more efficient. In
practice, if we have two maps with M and N elements, we pass from
performing N*log(N) + M*log(M) queries to the size of the union of the
set of keys of the two maps.
The `BFSVisitorBase` can go forward and backward starting from a certain
instruction. When going backward, it used to skip the starting
instruction.
For simmetry purposes, this commit changes that.
In the stack analysis, we used to consider helper functions as indirect
calls. However, the `CPUStateAccessAnalysis` provides us accurate
information about what an helper function does.
This commit transforms calls to helper functions in a series of ABI IR
instructions reading all the input registers of the helper functions and
a series of instructions writing the output registers.
Note that, while this is a serious improvement over considering them
indirect function calls, it's still suboptimal since
`CPUStateAccessAnalysis` doesn't provide us information as fine-grained
as the ABI analysis.
Previously, to enumerate all the CSVs we had to go through the
`GlobalVariable` of a `Module` and see if the were being used in
rev.ng-generated code.
Now we have a named metadata for that: `revng.csv`.
We used to save the type of a block in the `revng.block.type` metadata
as a number. This commit serializes it as a string.
In order to do this, the `BlockType` enum has been promoted to a
namespace with the usual `getName` and `fromName` functions.
`LazySmallBitVector` was lacking a comparison operator, which prevented
it from being used as the key of a `std::map`.
This commit implements such operator, along with the `reserve` method.
`extern` declarations of template specializations for Logger<true> and
Logger<false> caused weak symbols to be emitted in librevngSupport.so
and into its users.
Dynamic loading then failed because both symbols were weak.
This commit removes the `extern` declarations so that dynamic loading
succeeds.
All the definitions of `greaterThan` were `!lowerThanOrEqual`, and all
the uses were implicitly assuming this semantic.
However, this was confusing because in a Lattice the ordering is not
total, hence `!lowerThanOrEqual` is not equivalent to `greaterThan`.
This commit drops the `greaterThan` method altogether to avoid
confusion.
This commit introduces the helper templated struct InterruptCreator,
that is used to provide defaults for the methods
MonotoneFramework::createSummaryInterrupt() and
MonotoneFramework::createNoReturnInterrupt() whenever the Interrupt
template parameter for Monotoneframework is of type
DefaultInterrupt<LatticeElement>.
This frees the implementor of a new MonotoneFramework from the need
to implement those methods in the most common cases.
Whenever Interrupt is DefaultInterrupt<LatticeElement>,
MonotoneFramework::createSummaryInterrupt() aborts, since a summary
should never be generated for those kind of analyses.
Instead, MonotoneFramework::createNoReturnInterrupt() generates a
default Interrupt, since it will never be used.
In most cases, a user of MonotoneFramework does not need a
interprocedural analysis, nor an analysis whose results on
terminal labels have to be aggregated in a FinalResults.
DefaultInterrupt<LatticeElement> is designed exactly for those
cases, and is hence used as default template parameter for
MonotoneFramework.
This class provides the simplest possible implementation for an Interrupt
for a Monotone Framework.
In particular this interrupt is suitable for MonotoneFrameworks that are NOT
interprocedural, and that DO NOT need to combine all the results on the
terminal labels at the end of the analysis in a single FinalResult.
With these assumption, the resulting Interrupt is pretty simple and it just
forwards the results of the transfer function.
The MonotoneFrameworkSet class had two sets of methods, one for handling
set operations on it, the other handling lattice ordering.
It also silently assumed that the lattice combine operation was the set
union, which is not true in general.
This commit decouples the set operations from the lattice operations.
This allows to provide two separate implementations of
IntersectionMonotoneSet (for which the compbine operation is the set
intersection) and UnionMonotoneSet (for which the combine operation is
the set union).
Before this change, `EnforceCFGCombingPass` was occasionally failing on
`verifyModule` if called from Caliban, with mismatches in the
`llvm.dbg.cu` debug metadata.
This metadata is a list of `DICompileUnit`, and `verifyModule` was
failing inside `verifyCompileUnits` because some of the visited compile
unit during the verify were not listed in `llvm.dbg.cu`.
One of the reasons of this problem might be that during
the enforcing we clone many things in the enforced function, and this
may cause the cloned stuff not to update the metadata accordingly.
I couldn't track down if this was caused by my misuse of LLVM's API for
cloning, of to some actual bug in LLVM.
In the end I couldn't find out the exact cause and fix it, so this
commit is a workaround. It adds a dependency on `RemoveDbgMetadata`, so
that the debug metadata causing `verifyModule` to fail are removed
before the enforcing, hence preventing things going astray during the
enforcing, and fixing the failure.
This workaround should be fine, because this is one of the last steps
before generating C code, and debug info are note serialized to C
anyway.
