Detailed Description

The common interface of readers based on ELF.

These are for readers like DWARF and CTF readers that read debug information describing binaries in the ELF format.

This interface extends the elf_reader::reader interface and thus also provides facilities for reading ELF binaries.

Definition at line 33 of file abg-elf-based-reader.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ elf_based_reader()

elf_based_reader	(	const std::string &	elf_path,
		const vector< char ** > &	debug_info_root_paths,
		environment &	env
	)

protected

Readers that implement this interface must provide a factory method to create a reader instance as this constructor is protected.

Constructor of the @erf elf_based_reader type.

Parameters

elf_path	the path the ELF file to read.
debug_info_root_paths	a vector of paths to look into for split debug info files.
env	the environment used by the reader.

Definition at line 51 of file abg-elf-based-reader.cc.

◆ ~elf_based_reader()

~elf_based_reader ( )

Destructor of the reader.

Definition at line 61 of file abg-elf-based-reader.cc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ initialize() [1/2]

void initialize ( const std::string & corpus_path )

virtual

(re)Initialize the resources used by the current reader.

This invokes fe_iface::initialize as wel as the virtual pure elf_based_reader::initialize() interface.

Parameters

corpus_path path to the corpus to be built.

Reimplemented from reader.

Definition at line 88 of file abg-elf-based-reader.cc.

◆ initialize() [2/2]

void initialize	(	const std::string &	elf_path,
		const vector< char ** > &	debug_info_root_paths
	)

virtual

(re)Initialize) the resources used by the current reader.

This frees the resources of the current reader and gets it ready to read data from another ELF file.

Parameters

elf_path	the path to the new ELF file to consider.
debug_info_root_paths	a vector of paths to look into for split debug info files.

Reimplemented from reader.

Definition at line 74 of file abg-elf-based-reader.cc.

◆ read_and_add_corpus_to_group()

ir::corpus_sptr read_and_add_corpus_to_group	(	ir::corpus_group &	group,
		fe_iface::status &	status
	)

virtual

Read an ABI corpus and add it to a given corpus group.

Parameters

group	the corpus group to consider. The new corpus is added to this group.
status	output parameter. This is the status of the creation of the current ABI corpus. It's set by this function iff a non-nil corpus_sptr is returned.

Returns: the resulting ABI corpus.
