Add an engine for running VMA in different modes. User can:
- Decide how to initialize the colors (e.g. from the Model or from
the LLVM IR)
- Decide what to do with the final TFG obtained by VMA
- Decide whether or not the Mincut algorithm should run
Candidate colors, accepted colors and content are now accessible
only with setters and getters. In this way, we can check that
the Candidates are always a subset of the Accepted colors.
If we find values to be used outside their scope, we need to always
mark them for assignment, so that they have a dedicated variable that
is declared in the right scope. To do this we:
1. Export the logic that decides if a value needs a top-scope variable
in a public header, to be used by both `VariableScopeAnalysis` and
`MarkAssignments`.
2. Add the `HasUsesOutsideBB` reason for assignment markers
Add `ReadsMemory` and `WritesMemory` Tags and restructure the
logic that decides whether two instructions are interfering
as follows:
1. Consider `Store`s and anything with a `WritesMemory` tag as
having side effects
2. Consider all the `TaintSet` of an instruction when deciding
if two instructions interfere
3. Consider both `ReadsMemory` and `WritesMemory` Tags when
deciding interference
A simple pass that maps LLVM IR instructions to C operators,
taking into account their precedence and associativity to
emit nice-looking parenthesized expressions.
Before this commit, the dla::Step depended on InterferingInfo, but this
was superfluous.
This commit drops the dependency and enables the Step to run before
ComputeNonInterferingComponents.
This also avoids the need to run ComputeNonInterferingComponents twice
(one before and one after DeduplicateUnionFields), so it can only run
once.
The step now collapse parents with their single child if they are
indistinguishable, i.e. if the parent has only that single child, at
offset zero, and their size is the same.
Now that the late stage of the decompilation pipeline is managed with
revng-pipeline, and we have a standalone tool for decompilation, we
have no need to use LLVM passes anymore for those stages.
This commit also renames the directories to avoid the confusing Pass
suffix, not what LLVM passes are gone.
This library replaces the old AddIRSerializationMarkers, cleaning up a
lot of historcal baggage, merging Liveness and MarkAnalysis, and
adopting a more accurate naming across all the codebase.
Over time, SerializationReason had accumlated a bunch of values that
were designed to work around the limitation of the clang-based C
decompiler backend.
Now that the clang-based C decompiler backend is gone, these workarounds
can be removed.
