The function insn_get_reg_offset requires a type to indicate whether the returned offset is that given by by the ModRM or the SIB byte. Callers of this function would need the definition of the type struct. This is not needed. Instead, auxiliary functions can be defined for this purpose.
When the operand is a register, the emulation code for User-Mode Instruction Prevention needs to know the offset of the register indicated in the r/m part of the ModRM byte. Thus, start by adding an auxiliary function for this purpose.
Hmm, why wouldn't you just rename it to insn_get_reg_offset() and export it?
Do you mean exporting the structure that I mention above? The problem that I am trying to solve is that callers sometimes want to know the offset of the register encoded in the SiB or the ModRM bytes. I could use something
insn_get_reg_offset(insn, regs, INSN_TYPE_MODRM) insn_get_reg_offset(insn, regs, INSN_TYPE_SIB)
Instead, I opted for
insn_get_reg_offset_rm(insn, regs) insn_get_reg_offset_sib(insn, regs)
to avoid exposing an enum with the INSN_TYPE_MODRM, INSN_TYPE_SIB.
If you feel that the former makes more sense, I can change the implementation.
Thanks and BR, Ricardo
