Main BIL module.

The module specifies Binary Instruction Language (BIL). A language to define a semantics of instructions. The semantics of the BIL language is defined at [1].

The language is defined using algebraic types. For each BIL constructor a smart constructor is defined with the same (if syntax allows) name. This allows to use BIL as a DSL embedded into OCaml:

Bil.([
  v := src lsr i32 1;
  r := src;
  s := i32 31;
  while_ (var v <> i32 0) [
    r := var r lsl i32 1;
    r := var r lor (var v land i32 1);
    v := var v lsr i32 1;
    s := var s - i32 1;
  ];
  dst := var r lsl var s;
])

where i32 is defined as let i32 x = Bil.int (Word.of_int ~width:32 x) and v,r,s are some variables of type var; and src, dst are expressions of type exp.

@see <https://github.com/BinaryAnalysisPlatform/bil/releases/download/v0.1/bil.pdf> [1]: BIL Semantics.

Example:

Or_error.errorf "type %a is not valid for %a"
  Type.str ty Exp.str exp
val pps : unit -> t -> string

synonym for str

val ppo : Core_kernel.Out_channel.t -> t -> unit

will print to a standard output_channel, useful for using in printf, fprintf, etc.

prints a sequence of values of type t

this will include pp function from Core that has type t printer, and can be used in Format.printf family of functions

include Core_kernel.Pretty_printer.S with type t := t
val pp : Base.Formatter.t -> t -> unit
include Regular.Std.Data.S with type t := t
type info = string * [ `Ver of string ] * string option

name,Ver v,desc information attached to a particular reader or writer.

val version : string

Data representation version. After any change in data representation the version should be increased.

Serializers that are derived from a data representation must have the same version as a version of the data structure, from which it is derived. This kind of serializers can only read and write data of the same version.

Other serializers can actually read and write data independent on its representation version. A serializer, that can't store data of current version simply shouldn't be added to a set of serializers.

It is assumed, that if a reader and a writer has the same name and version, then whatever was written by the writer should be readable by the reader. The round-trip equality is not required, thus it is acceptable if some information is lost.

It is also possible, that a reader and a writer that has the same name are compatible. In that case it is recommended to use semantic versioning.

BIL Helper functions

val is_referenced : var -> stmt list -> bool

is_referenced x p is true if x is referenced in some expression or statement in program p, before it is assigned.

val is_assigned : ?strict:bool -> var -> stmt list -> bool

is_assigned x p is true if there exists such Move statement, that x occurs on the left side of it. If strict is true, then only unconditional assignments are accounted. By default, strict is false

val prune_unreferenced : ?such_that:(var -> bool) -> ?physicals:bool -> ?virtuals:bool -> stmt list -> stmt list

prune_unreferenced ?physicals ?virtuals ?such_that p remove all assignments to variables that are not used in the program p. This is a local optimization. The variable is unreferenced if it is not referenced in its lexical scope, or if it is referenced after the assignment. A variable is pruned only if it matches to one of the user specified kind, described below (no variable matches the default values, so by default nothing is pruned):

such_that matches a variable v for which such_that v is true;

physicals matches all physical variables (i.e., registers and memory locations). See Var.is_physical for more information. Note: passing true to this option is in general unsound, unless you're absolutely sure, that physical variables will not live out program p;

virtuals matches all virtual variables (i.e., such variables that were added to a program artificially and are not represented physically in a program). See Var.is_virtual for more information on virtual variables.

val normalize_negatives : stmt list -> stmt list

normalize_negatives p transform x + y to x - abs(y) if y < 0

val substitute : exp -> exp -> stmt list -> stmt list

substitute x y p substitutes each occurrence of expression x by expression y in program p. The mnemonic to remember the order is to recall the sed's s/in/out syntax.

val substitute_var : var -> exp -> stmt list -> stmt list

substitute_var x y p substitutes all free occurrences of variable x in program p by expression y. A variable is free if it is not bounded in a preceding statement or not bound with let expression.

val free_vars : stmt list -> vars

free_vars bil returns a set of free variables in program bil. Variable is considered free if it is not bound in a preceding statement or is not bound with let expression

val fold_consts : stmt list -> stmt list

fold_consts evaluates constant expressions and statements.

val fixpoint : (stmt list -> stmt list) -> stmt list -> stmt list

fixpoint f applies transformation f until fixpoint is reached. If the transformation orbit contains non-trivial cycles, then the transformation will stop at an arbitrary point of a cycle.

val propagate_consts : stmt list -> stmt list

propagate_consts bil propagates consts from their reaching definitions. The implementation computes reaching definition using inference style analysis, overapproximates while cycles (doesn't compute the meet-over-paths solution), and ignores memory locations.

  • since 1.5
val prune_dead_virtuals : stmt list -> stmt list

prune_dead_virtuals bil removes definitions of virtual variables that are not live in the provided bil program. We assume that virtual variables are used to represent temporaries, thus their removal is safe. The analysis over-approximates the while loops, and won't remove any definition that occurs in a while loop body, or which depends on it. The analysis doesn't track memory locations.

BIL Special values

The Special statement enables encoding of arbitrary semantics using encode attr values and decode attr to get the values back. The meaning of the attr and values is specific to the user domain.

Example, encode call "malloc", where call is the BIL attribute that denotes a call to a function. See call for more information.

module Attribute : sig ... end

BIL attributes.

val encode : 'a Attribute.t -> 'a -> stmt

encode attr value encodes value as a special statement.

  • since 2.3.0
val decode : 'a Attribute.t -> stmt -> 'a option

decode attr s is Some v if s is encode attr v.

  • since 2.3.0
val call : string Attribute.t

call is the attribute name for encoding calls.

  • since 2.3.0
val intrinsic : string Attribute.t

intrinsic is the attribute for intrinsic calls.

An intrinsic is a low-level, usually microarchitectural operation.

  • since 2.3.0
val label : string Attribute.t

label a named code location.

  • since 2.4.0
val goto : string Attribute.t

goto represents a control-flow transfer to a named label.

  • since 2.4.0

class type storage = object ... end

An interface to a memory storage.

module Storage : sig ... end

Predefined storage classes

    *)
  2. | Mem of storage
    (*

    memory storage

    *)
  3. | Bot
    (*

    undefined value

    *)

Value of a result. We slightly diverge from an operational semantics by allowing a user to provide its own storage implementation.

In operational semantics a storage is represented syntactically as

            v1 with [v2,ed] : nat <- v3,

where v1 may be either a Bot value, representing an empty memory (or an absence of knowledge), or another storage. So a well typed memory object is defined inductively as:

          Inductive memory :=
           | bot : memory
           | store : (mem : memory) (addr : value) (data : value).

That is equivalent to an assoc list. Although we provide an assoc list as storage variant (see Storage.linear), the default storage is implemented slightly more effective, and uses linear space and provides $log(N)$ lookup and update methods. Users are encouraged to provide more efficient storage implementations, for interpreters that rely heave on memory throughput.

type pass
val register_pass : ?desc:string -> string -> (t -> t) -> pass

register_pass ~desc name pass provides a pass to the BIL transformation pipeline. The BIL transformation pipeline is applied after the lifting procedure, i.e., it is embedded into each lift function of all Target modules. (You can selectively register passes based on architecture by subscribing to the Project.Info.arch variable). All passes that were in the selection provided to the select_passes are applied in the order of the selection until the fixed point is reached or a loop is detected. By default, no passes are selected. The bil plugin provides a user interface for passes selection, as well as some useful passes.
