sleigh-disasm

Simple architecture-agnostic disassembly library using SLEIGH

Build Status

About

Ghidra uses the SLEIGH language for rapidly creating support for different processors. sleigh-disasm is a C++ wrapper around some of the SLEIGH parsing code used by the Ghidra decompiler. It provides a simple disassembly API, similar to Capstone, that can support any architecture given a compiled slaspec file.

Example

#include <sleigh-disasm.hpp>

static uint8_t code[] = {
    0x55, 0x48, 0x8b, 0x05, 0xb8, 0x13, 0x00, 0x00
};

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    std::string sleigh_filename = "ghidra/specfiles/x86.sla";
    SleighDisasm handle;

    // Provide the path to the compiled sla file to use
    handle.configure(sleigh_filename);

    // Disassemble 8 instructions from the code buffer starting at address 0x1000
    handle.disassemble(code, sizeof(code) - 1, 0x1000, 8);
    return 0;
}

Output

0x00001000: PUSH EBP
0x00001001: DEC EAX
0x00001002: MOV EAX,dword ptr [0x13b8]
0x00001008: ADD byte ptr [EAX],AL
0x0000100a: ADD byte ptr [EAX],AL
0x0000100c: ADD byte ptr [EAX],AL
0x0000100e: ADD byte ptr [EAX],AL
0x00001010: ADD byte ptr [EAX],AL

Compiling

Update the Ghidra submodule:

git submodule init
git submodule update

Run the CMake build:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=ON ..
make
make install

By default, CMake will build the SLEIGH compiler executable and then use it to build all of the slaspecs that are found in the Ghidra submodule. If you do not wish to build all of the slaspecs at once, you can disable this by passing BUILD_SLASPECS=OFF to CMake.
