Detailed Description

Datatype object representing a pointer.

Member Function Documentation

◆ calcSubmeta()

void TypePointer::calcSubmeta ( void )

protected

Pointers to structures may require a specific submeta.

Calculate specific submeta for this pointer

Referenced by TypePointer().

◆ clone()

virtual Datatype * TypePointer::clone ( void ) const

inlinevirtual

Clone the data-type.

Implements Datatype.

Reimplemented in TypePointerRel.

References TypePointer().

◆ compare()

int4 TypePointer::compare	(	const Datatype &	op,
		int4	level
	)		const

virtual

Order types for propagation.

Order this with another data-type, in a way suitable for the type propagation algorithm. Bigger types come earlier. More specific types come earlier.

Parameters

op	is the data-type to compare with this
level	is maximum level to descend when recursively comparing

Returns: negative, 0, positive depending on ordering of types

Reimplemented from Datatype.

References Datatype::compare(), Datatype::getId(), ptrto, and wordsize.

◆ compareDependency()

int4 TypePointer::compareDependency ( const Datatype & op ) const

virtual

Compare for storage in tree structure.

Sort data-types for the main TypeFactory container. The sort needs to be based on the data-type structure so that an example data-type, constructed outside the factory, can be used to find the equivalent object inside the factory. This means the comparison should not examine the data-type id. In practice, the comparison only needs to go down one level in the component structure before just comparing component pointers.

Parameters

op	is the data-type to compare with this

Returns: negative, 0, positive depending on ordering of types

Reimplemented from Datatype.

Reimplemented in TypePointerRel.

References Datatype::getSize(), Datatype::getSubMeta(), ptrto, Datatype::size, Datatype::submeta, and wordsize.

◆ downChain()

TypePointer * TypePointer::downChain	(	uintb &	off,
		TypePointer *&	par,
		uintb &	parOff,
		bool	allowArrayWrap,
		TypeFactory &	typegrp
	)

virtual

Find a sub-type pointer given an offset into this.

Add a constant offset to this pointer. If there is a valid component at that offset, return a pointer to the data-type of the component or NULL otherwise. This routine only goes down one level at most. Pass back the renormalized offset relative to the new data-type. If this is a pointer to (into) a container, the data-type of the container is passed back, with the offset into the container.

Parameters

off	is a reference to the offset to add
par	is used to pass back the container
parOff	is used to pass back the offset into the container
allowArrayWrap	is true if the pointer should be treated as a pointer to an array
typegrp	is the factory producing the (possibly new) data-type

Returns: a pointer datatype for the component or NULL

Reimplemented in TypePointerRel.

Referenced by TypePointerRel::downChain(), TypeOpPtrsub::getOutputToken(), and ActionInferTypes::propagateAddIn2Out().

◆ getDepend()

virtual Datatype * TypePointer::getDepend ( int4 index ) const

inlinevirtual

Return the i-th component sub-type.

Reimplemented from Datatype.

References ptrto.

◆ isPtrsubMatching()

bool TypePointer::isPtrsubMatching ( uintb off ) const

virtual

Is this data-type suitable as input to a CPUI_PTRSUB op.

A CPUI_PTRSUB must act on a pointer data-type where the given offset addresses a component. Perform this check.

Parameters

off	is the given offset

Returns: true if this is a suitable PTRSUB data-type

Reimplemented from Datatype.

Reimplemented in TypePointerRel.

◆ numDepend()

virtual int4 TypePointer::numDepend ( void ) const

inlinevirtual

Return number of component sub-types.

Reimplemented from Datatype.

◆ printRaw()

void TypePointer::printRaw ( ostream & s ) const

virtual

Print a description of the type to stream.

Print a raw description of the type to stream. Intended for debugging. Not intended to produce parsable C.

Parameters

s	is the output stream

Reimplemented from Datatype.

Reimplemented in TypePointerRel.

References Datatype::printRaw(), and ptrto.

◆ restoreXml()

void TypePointer::restoreXml	(	const Element *	el,
		TypeFactory &	typegrp
	)

protected

Restore this pointer data-type from an XML element.

Parse a <type> tag with a child describing the data-type being pointed to

Parameters

el	is the root XML element
typegrp	is the factory owning this data-type

Referenced by TypeFactory::restoreXmlTypeNoRef().

◆ saveXml()

void TypePointer::saveXml ( ostream & s ) const

virtual

Serialize the data-type to XML.

Write out a formal description of the data-type as an XML <type> tag. For composite data-types, the description goes down one level, describing the component types only by reference.

Parameters

s	is the stream to write to
