如何简化引用自身作为参数的函数? (这是什么意思)

How to simplify a function referencing itself as argument ? (and what does this mean)

我经常遇到一个函数调用自己(在IDA生成的伪代码中),例如:

result = (**(__int64 (__fastcall ***)(volatile signed __int32 *))lambda)(lambda);
  1. 既然反汇编是call qword ptr [rax],我把c伪代码翻译成result = lambda();不就可以了吗?
  2. 为什么在伪代码中函数将自身作为参数?
  3. 当出现 lambda + 8i64(即 call qword ptr [rax+8])这样的调用时会发生什么情况?

这里有更完整的上下文:

__int64 __fastcall CR_maybeParseWithLambda(_QWORD *a1, __int64 newPtr, __int64 positionOrCounter)
{
  volatile signed __int32 *lambda; // rdi
  __int64 result; // rax

  lambda = (volatile signed __int32 *)a1[1];
  if ( lambda )
  {
    result = (unsigned int)_InterlockedExchangeAdd(lambda + 2, 0xFFFFFFFF);
    if ( (_DWORD)result == 1 )
    {
      result = (**(__int64 (__fastcall ***)(volatile signed __int32 *))lambda)(lambda);
      if ( _InterlockedExchangeAdd(lambda + 3, 0xFFFFFFFF) == 1 )
        result = (*(__int64 (__fastcall **)(volatile signed __int32 *))(*(_QWORD *)lambda + 8i64))(lambda);
      a1[1] = positionOrCounter;
      *a1 = newPtr;
    }
    else
    {
      a1[1] = positionOrCounter;
      *a1 = newPtr;
    }
  }
  else
  {
    a1[1] = positionOrCounter;
    *a1 = newPtr;
  }
  return result;
}

  1. Since the disassembly is call qword ptr [rax], can't this be simplified into result = lambda(); if I translate the pseudo code in c ?

没有。反编译器检测到传入的变量可能是被调用函数的参数。

例如,void f()void f(int) 函数都使用单个 call 汇编命令调用,除了在后一种情况下,调用者移动 int在调用函数之前将值写入适当的寄存器。

您可以更改 lambda 的类型来避免这种情况。

  1. Why in the pseudo code the function is having itself as argument ?

仔细阅读汇编代码和反编译代码非常lambda 不是函数指针,要从中获取函数指针,必须取消引用 两次 。所以它可能是这样的(伪C++代码)

using FunctionType=int(int);
struct B{
    FunctionType* functionPointer;
};
struct A{
    B* b;
};
A* lambda; // the variable name is a little misleading, given this interpretation.
auto functionPointer=(*(*lambda).b);
functionPointer(lambda);

鉴于双重取消引用,B 很可能实际上是一个 vftable(尽管在这些情况下,该函数通常使用 __thiscall 约定调用)——所以代码可以这样写:

struct Base{
    virtual void someFunction(){}
    virtual void otherFunction(){}
};
struct Base_vftableType{ // compiler-generated
    void (*someFunction)(Base*); // explicit (this) argument shown
    void (*otherFunction)(Base*); // explicit (this) argument shown
};
struct Derived: Base{
    Base_vftableType *vftable; // compiler-generated
    void someFunction(){ /* ... */ }
};
Base_vftableType derived_vftable{ /* ... */ }; // compiler-generated vftable

Derived *a;

// the function call is something like this in pseudo-C
// (and probably how it will be displayed in IDA):
a->vftable->someFunction(a);
  1. What is happening when there is a call such as lambda + 8i64 (ie., call qword ptr [rax+8]) ?

同样,vftable中可以有多个函数,而+只是获取其他函数的地址。

假设 64 位函数指针,+8 将是 table 中的第二个函数。
