This extension implements the Golang calling convention and an auto analysis for Golang string extraction.
These two components significantly improve Golang decompilation and analysis in Ghidra.
This module is still under heavy development. It currently supports Golang 1.19.3 for Apple Silicon, support for other compiler versions and architectures are planned, but currently unimplemented.
To install the extension you will need to install gradle for your platform.
export GHIDRA_INSTALL_DIR=<path to your Ghidra installation>
gradleOnce the extension is built it will be available in dist/.
You will need to build the extension from source. Once the extension is stable I will provide prebuilt binaries.
The extension can be installed through Ghidra. Open Ghidra,
open the File menu in the project view and click "Install Extensions...".
Click the green plus icon, then select the built extension zip from the dist/
directory.
This extension is under heavy development. There will be bugs and edge cases.
I am streaming development of Golang Ghidra on Twitch! Follow there for development updates!
