This is the main repository for the Macaw binary analysis framework.
This framework is implemented to offer extensible support for
architectures.
The main algorithm implemented so far is a code discovery procedure
which will discover reachable code in the binary given one or more

entry points such as `_start` or the current symbols.

The core libraries are:
* macaw-base -- The core architecture-independent operations and algorithms.
2018-06-15 20:15:02 +03:00
* macaw-symbolic -- Library that provides symbolic simulation of Macaw programs via Crucible.
2017-09-28 02:12:44 +03:00
* macaw-x86 -- Provides definitions enabling Macaw to be used on X86_64 programs.
2018-06-15 20:15:02 +03:00
* macaw-x86-symbolic -- Adds Macaw-symbolic extensions needed to support x86.
