Detailed Description

Find Varnodes with a vectorized lane scheme and attempt to split the lanes.

The Architecture lists (vector) registers that may be used to perform parallelized operations on lanes within the register. This action looks for these registers as Varnodes, determines if a particular lane scheme makes sense in terms of the function's data-flow, and then rewrites the data-flow so that the lanes become explicit Varnodes.

int4 ActionLaneDivide::apply ( Funcdata & data )

virtual

Make a single attempt to apply this Action.

This is the main entry point for applying changes to a function that are specific to this Action. The method can inspect whatever it wants to decide if the Action does or does not apply. Changes are indicated by incrementing the count field.

Parameters

data	is the function to inspect/modify

Returns: 0 for a complete application, -1 for a partial completion (due to breakpoint)

Implements Action.

References Funcdata::beginLaneAccess(), Funcdata::beginLoc(), Funcdata::clearLanedAccessMap(), Funcdata::endLaneAccess(), Funcdata::endLoc(), and Funcdata::setLanedRegGenerated().

virtual Action* ActionLaneDivide::clone ( const ActionGroupList & grouplist ) const

inlinevirtual

Clone the Action.

If this Action is a member of one of the groups in the grouplist, this returns a clone of the Action, otherwise NULL is returned.

Parameters

grouplist is the list of groups being cloned

Returns: the cloned Action or NULL

Implements Action.

References ActionStart::apply(), ActionGroupList::contains(), and Action::getGroup().

void ActionLaneDivide::collectLaneSizes	(	Varnode *	vn,
		const LanedRegister &	allowedLanes,
		LanedRegister &	checkLanes
	)

private

Examine the PcodeOps using the given Varnode to determine possible lane sizes.

Run through the defining op and any descendant ops of the given Varnode, looking for CPUI_PIECE and CPUI_SUBPIECE. Use these to determine possible lane sizes and register them with the given LanedRegister object.

Parameters

vn	is the given Varnode
allowedLanes	is used to determine if a putative lane size is allowed
checkLanes	collects the possible lane sizes

References LanedRegister::addLaneSize(), LanedRegister::allowedLane(), Varnode::beginDescend(), PcodeOp::code(), CPUI_PIECE, CPUI_SUBPIECE, Varnode::endDescend(), Varnode::getDef(), PcodeOp::getIn(), PcodeOp::getOut(), Varnode::getSize(), and Varnode::isWritten().

bool ActionLaneDivide::processVarnode	(	Funcdata &	data,
		Varnode *	vn,
		const LanedRegister &	lanedRegister,
		int4	mode
	)

private

Search for a likely lane size and try to divide a single Varnode into these lanes.

There are different ways to search for a lane size:

Mode 0: Collect putative lane sizes based on the local ops using the Varnode. Attempt to divide based on each of those lane sizes in turn.

Mode 1: Similar to mode 0, except we allow for SUBPIECE operations that truncate to variables that are smaller than the lane size.

Mode 2: Attempt to divide based on a default lane size.

Parameters

data	is the function being transformed
vn	is the given single Varnode
lanedRegister	is acceptable set of lane sizes for the Varnode
mode	is the lane size search mode (0, 1, or 2)

Returns: true if the Varnode (and its data-flow) was successfully split
