What's new?
- Introduced new internal representation, so-called MIR (Middle-level [or MicroTESK] IR)
- Redesigned the constraint generator (for mark-based situations)
- Redesigned the symbolic executor (for binary code analysis)
- Unified the directives (alignment, data definition, and labels) for
.text and .data sections:
- Enabled a possibility to define data in
.text
- Implemented new directives:
.balign, .p2align, and .option
- Refactored the code/data allocation logic
- Implemented a simple instruction-level coverage tracker (experimental)
- Used the QEMU4V 0.3.4 simulator for running tests
