Class AddressMapDB

java.lang.Object
ghidra.program.database.map.AddressMapDB
All Implemented Interfaces:
AddressMap

public class AddressMapDB extends Object implements AddressMap
Class used to map addresses to longs and longs to addresses. Several different encodings are depending on the nature of the address to be converted. The upper 4 bits in the long are used to specify the encoding used. Currently the encoding are: 0 - use the original ghidra encoding - used for backwards compatibility. 1 - absolute encoding - ignores the image base - used only by the memory map. 2 - relocatable - most common encoding - allows address to move with the image base. 3 - register - used to encode register addresses 4 - stack - used to encode stack addresses (includes namespace information to make them unique between functions) 5 - external - used to encode addresses in another program 15 - no address - used to represent the null address or a meaningless address.

  • Method Details

    • memoryMapChanged

      public void memoryMapChanged(MemoryMapDB mem)
      Notification when the memory map changes. If we are segemented, we need to update our list of address ranges used for address normalization.
      Parameters:
      mem - the changed memory map.
    • invalidateCache

      public void invalidateCache() throws IOException
      Clears any cached values.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an IO error occurs
    • getOldAddressMap

      public AddressMap getOldAddressMap()
      Returns an address map which may be used during the upgrade of old address encodings. If the address map is up-to-date, then this method will return this instance of AddressMapDB.
      Specified by:
      getOldAddressMap in interface AddressMap
    • isUpgraded

      public boolean isUpgraded()
      Description copied from interface: AddressMap
      Returns true if this address map has been upgraded.
      Specified by:
      isUpgraded in interface AddressMap
    • getKey

      public long getKey(Address addr, boolean create)
      Description copied from interface: AddressMap
      Get the database key associated with the given relative address. This key uniquely identifies a relative location within the program. If the program's image base is moved to another address, this key will map to a new address that is the same distance to the new base as the old address was to the old base. If the requested key does not exist and create is false, INVALID_ADDRESS_KEY will be returned. Note that nothing should ever be stored using the returned key unless create is true.
      Specified by:
      getKey in interface AddressMap
      Parameters:
      addr - the address for which to get a database key.
      create - true if a new key may be generated
      Returns:
      the database key for the given address or INVALID_ADDRESS_KEY if create is false and one does not exist for the specified addr.
    • getAbsoluteEncoding

      public long getAbsoluteEncoding(Address addr, boolean create)
      Description copied from interface: AddressMap
      Get the database key associated with the given absolute address. This key uniquely identifies an absolute location within the program. If the requested key does not exist and create is false, INVALID_ADDRESS_KEY will be returned. Note that nothing should ever be stored using the returned key unless create is true.
      Specified by:
      getAbsoluteEncoding in interface AddressMap
      Parameters:
      addr - the address for which to get a database key.
      create - true if a new key may be generated
      Returns:
      the database key for the given address or INVALID_ADDRESS_KEY if create is false and one does not exist for the specified addr.
    • decodeAddress

      public Address decodeAddress(long value)
      Description copied from interface: AddressMap
      Returns the address that was used to generate the given long key. (If the image base was moved, then a different address is returned unless the value was encoded using the "absoluteEncoding" method. If the program's default address space is segmented (i.e., SegmentedAddressSpace). the address returned will be always be normalized to defined segmented memory blocks if possible.
      Specified by:
      decodeAddress in interface AddressMap
      Parameters:
      value - the long value to convert to an address.
      Returns:
      address decoded from long
    • decodeAddress

      public Address decodeAddress(long value, boolean useMemorySegmentation)
      Returns the address that was used to generate the given long key. (If the image base was moved, then a different address is returned unless the value was encoded using the "absoluteEncoding" method
      Parameters:
      value - the long value to convert to an address.
      useMemorySegmentation - if true and the program's default address space is segmented (i.e., SegmentedAddressSpace). the address returned will be normalized to defined segmented memory blocks if possible. This parameter should generally always be true except when used by the Memory map objects to avoid recursion problems.
      Returns:
      decoded address
    • getAddressFactory

      public AddressFactory getAddressFactory()
      Description copied from interface: AddressMap
      Returns the address factory associated with this map. Null may be returned if map not associated with a specific address factory.
      Specified by:
      getAddressFactory in interface AddressMap
      Returns:
      associated AddressFactory or null
    • setImageBase

      public void setImageBase(Address base)
      Sets the image base, effectively changing the mapping between addresses and longs.
      Parameters:
      base - the new base address.
    • findKeyRange

      public int findKeyRange(List<KeyRange> keyRangeList, Address addr)
      Description copied from interface: AddressMap
      Search for addr within the "sorted" keyRangeList and return the index of the keyRange which contains the specified addr.
      Specified by:
      findKeyRange in interface AddressMap
      Parameters:
      keyRangeList - key range list to search
      addr - address or null
      Returns:
      index of the keyRange within the keyRangeList which contains addr if it is contained in the list; otherwise, (-(insertion point) - 1). The insertion point is defined as the point at which the addr would be inserted into the list: the index of the first keyRange greater than addr, or keyRangeList.size(), if all keyRanges in the list are less than the specified addr. Note that this guarantees that the return value will be >= 0 if and only if the addr is found within a keyRange. An addr of null will always result in a returned index of -1.
    • getKeyRanges

      public List<KeyRange> getKeyRanges(Address start, Address end, boolean create)
      Description copied from interface: AddressMap
      Generates a properly ordered list of database key ranges for a a specified address range. If absolute encodings are requested, only memory addresses will be included. Returned key ranges are generally intended for read-only operations since new keys will never be generated. The returned key ranges will correspond to those key ranges which have previously been created within the specified address range and may represent a much smaller subset of addresses within the specified range. NOTE: if the create parameter is true, the given range must not extend in the upper 32 bits by more than 1 segment. For example, range(0x0000000000000000 - 0x0000000100000000) is acceptable, but the range (0x0000000000000000 - 0x0000000200000000) is not because the upper 32 bits differ by 2.
      Specified by:
      getKeyRanges in interface AddressMap
      Parameters:
      start - the start address of the range
      end - maximum address of range
      create - true if a new keys may be generated, otherwise returned key-ranges will be limited to those already defined. And if true, the range will be limited to a size of 2^32 so that at most it creates two new address bases
      Returns:
      "sorted" list of KeyRange objects
