@Nemoumbra could you share the bytes / instructions corresponding to the function containing that segment? I tried reproducing this, but even when the assembly clearly did a comparison of the switch variable before the lookup, the decompiler still properly decompiled the switch. It might be that there is more in your function that contributes to the problem. Either way, I think it's better to continue discussion in issue #2628. @ryanmkurtz is there anything I can do to help get this PR out of triage, and closer to being merged? |

@LukeSerne I have no clue which program I was studying back then.😭 |

This commit adds INT_REM handling to JumpBasic, which allows switch statements depending on expressions like "x % 10" to be properly recovered. Previously, a warning was emitted about there being "too many branches".
This commit adds a fallback to use the non-zero mask to determine the maximum value a varnode can take. It also slightly improves the case where a varnode is defined by a MULTIEQUAL by recursively calling the getMaxValue function.
By keeping track of how deep in the recursive chain we are, we can avoid infinite recursion.
