This tool lifts a a compiled binary to LLVM.

• llvmlite
• graphviz

https://ghidra-sre.org/ghidra_9.1.1_PUBLIC_20191218.zip

• Extract the JDK: tar xvf <JDK distribution .tar.gz>
• Open ~/.bashrc with an editor of your choice. For example:vi ~/.bashrc
• At the very end of the file, add the JDK bin directory to the PATH variable:export PATH=/bin:$PATH
• Save file
• Restart any open terminal windows for changes to take effect

The script requires you to provide the location of two files (absolute path):

• ghidra_headless_loc = "/PATH/TO/ghidra_9.1.1_PUBLIC/support/analyzeHeadless"
• prj_dir = "/PATH/TO/GhidraProjects/"

To run the the tool, simply run the g2llvm.py script. It takes a single mandatory argument, the target executable.

Optional arguments:

• '-out' emits intermediate files
• '-opt X' attempts to optimize the file. Valid options 0-3. (Currently only 0 works)
• '-cfg' saves a .PNG of the whole module CFG.

• HighFunction_Analysis.java: Prints readable version of high function representation
• HighFunction2LLVM.java: Makes an XML file if the high function representation

• Implement lifting using Ghidra's HighFunction (will eventually be the default)
