Detailed Description

A memory bank that implements reads and writes using a hash table.

The initial state of the bank is taken from an underlying memory bank or is all zero, if this bank is initialized with a null pointer. This implementation will not be very efficient for accessing entire pages.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ MemoryHashOverlay()

ghidra::MemoryHashOverlay::MemoryHashOverlay	(	AddrSpace *	spc,
		int4	ws,
		int4	ps,
		int4	hashsize,
		MemoryBank *	ul
	)

Constructor for hash overlay.

A MemoryBank implemented as a hash table needs everything associated with a generic memory bank, but the constructor also needs to know the size of the hashtable and the underlying memorybank to forward reads and writes to.

Parameters

spc	is the address space associated with the memory bank
ws	is the number of bytes in the preferred wordsize (must be power of 2)
ps	is the number of bytes in a page (must be a power of 2)
hashsize	is the maximum number of entries in the hashtable
ul	is the underlying memory bank being overlayed

Member Function Documentation

◆ find()

uintb ghidra::MemoryHashOverlay::find ( uintb addr ) const

protectedvirtual

Overridden aligned word find.

First search for an entry in the hashtable using addr as a key. If there is no entry, forward the query to the underlying memory bank, or return 0 if there is no underlying bank
