maat::MemAbstractBuffer class

This class represents a memory area where abstract expressions are stored. It enables to read/write any expression of size 8, 16, 32, or 64 bits.

For performance reasons, no checks are performed on the read/write operations to make sure that they don't overflow the bounds of the buffer. It is up to the caller to verify that the arguments passed are consistent.

Abstract expressions are stored in a hashmap <offset : (expr, byte_num)>.

• offset: is the offset in the buffer (the address)
• expr: expr is the expression written at address addr
• byte_num: is the number of the particular octet of 'expr' that is at address addr For example, assuming little endian, writing v1 = exprvar(32, "var1") at offset 0x100 gives:
  • <0x100: (v1, 0)>
  • <0x101: (v1, 1)>
  • <0x102: (v1, 2)>
  • <0x103: (v1, 3)>

For read operations, if the value read overlaps between two different expressions stored in memory, the class automatically concatenates/extracts the corresponding parts
