PowerPC¶

Instruction¶

class lief.assembly.powerpc.Instruction¶

Bases: Instruction

This class represents a PowerPC (ppc64/ppc32) instruction

property opcode → lief.assembly.powerpc.OPCODE¶: The instruction opcode as defined in LLVM

property operands → Iterator[lief.assembly.powerpc.Operand | None]¶: Iterator over the operands of the current instruction

Opcodes¶

See: lief.assembly.powerpc.OPCODE

Operands¶

class lief.assembly.powerpc.Operand¶

Bases: object

This class represents an operand for a PowerPC instruction

property to_string → str¶: Pretty representation of the operand

Immediate¶

class lief.assembly.powerpc.operands.Immediate¶

Bases: Operand

This class represents an immediate operand (i.e. a constant)

For instance:

li 3, 8
      |
      +---> Immediate(8)

property value → int¶: The constant value wrapped by this operand

Register¶

class lief.assembly.powerpc.operands.Register¶

Bases: Operand

This class represents a register operand.

For instance:

add 3, 4, 5
     |  |  |
     |  |  +---------> Register(5)
     |  +------------> Register(4)
     +---------------> Register(3)

property value → lief.assembly.powerpc.REG¶: The effective lief.assembly.powerpc.REG wrapped by this operand

Memory¶

class lief.assembly.powerpc.operands.Memory¶

Bases: Operand

This class represents a memory operand.

lwz   3, 8(4)              lwzx   3, 4, 5
       |  |                       |  |  |
+------+  +---+            +------+   |  +---+
|             |           |          |      |
v             v           v          v      v
Disp         Base        Reg        Base   Index

property base → lief.assembly.powerpc.REG¶

The base register.

For lwz 3, 8(4) it would return 4.

property offset → lief.assembly.powerpc.REG | int | None¶

The addressing offset.

It can be either:

An index register (e.g. lwzx 3, 4, 5)
A displacement (e.g. lwz 3, 8(4))

PCRelative¶

class lief.assembly.powerpc.operands.PCRelative¶

Bases: Operand

This class represents a PC-relative operand.

bl 0x100
   |
   v
 PC Relative operand

property value → int¶: The effective value that is relative to the current pc register
