This PR implements comprehensive memory allocation and deallocation functionality for the Binary Ninja Debugger, allowing users to allocate memory buffers in target processes during debugging sessions.
Overview
The implementation adds
AllocateMemory()
andFreeMemory()
methods across all debugger adapters, providing a unified interface for dynamic memory management in target processes. This enables advanced debugging scenarios including memory patching, dynamic analysis, and runtime data injection.Key Features
DebugAdapter
base class with consistent interface across all adaptersSBProcess::AllocateMemory/DeallocateMemory
APIsQueuedAdapter
with proper operation queuingUsage Example
Implementation Details
AllocateMemory()
returns 0 on failure, allocated address on successAdapter Support
The implementation maintains full backward compatibility and provides a solid foundation for advanced debugging workflows.
Fixes #404.
