binary-analysis-patterns
Assembly instruction patterns, control flow analysis, and decompilation techniques for understanding compiled binaries.
- Covers x86-64, ARM64, and ARM32 calling conventions with detailed instruction patterns for function prologues, epilogues, and parameter passing across System V and Microsoft x64 ABIs
- Includes control flow patterns for conditionals, loops, and switch statements, plus data structure recognition for arrays, structs, and linked lists
- Provides common code patterns for string operations, arithmetic optimizations, and bit manipulation with assembly examples
- Offers Ghidra and IDA Pro integration guidance, including scripting examples for function signature recovery, structure creation, and pattern matching
- Documents decompilation strategies for variable recovery, type inference, and algorithm identification with analysis workflow best practices
Binary Analysis Patterns
Comprehensive patterns and techniques for analyzing compiled binaries, understanding assembly code, and reconstructing program logic.
Disassembly Fundamentals
x86-64 Instruction Patterns
Function Prologue/Epilogue
; Standard prologue
push rbp ; Save base pointer
mov rbp, rsp ; Set up stack frame
sub rsp, 0x20 ; Allocate local variables
; Leaf function (no calls)
; May skip frame pointer setup
sub rsp, 0x18 ; Just allocate locals
