evmdasm 0.1.2

A lightweight ethereum evm bytecode asm instruction registry and disassembler library.

evmdasm

A lightweight ethereum evm bytecode instruction registry and disassembler library.

This library is meant for providing a static interface and registry for EVM opcodes and instructions. The idea is to keep it as lightweight as possible especially when it comes to dependencies or high level features.

e.g. The ethereum-dasm project - a kind of high level disassembler with static/dynamic analysis features - relies on the registry and base disassembling functionality provided by evmdasm.

Library

accessing the instruction registry

• registry.INSTRUCTIONS holds instruction templates. These are the initial set ob instructions available to the evm. Keep the templates static/unchanged.
• To create a new instruction from a template either use instruction.clone() or registry.create_instruction(name=; or opcode=). Feel free to do anything you want with this new instance of an evm instruction.
• To add new instructions just create an Instruction(...) object and put it into registry.INSTRUCTIONS

from evm_instruction import registry

# access via named dict
jmp = registry.instruction.JUMP

# access via dict
## accessing the template objects (avoid modifying them)

jmp = registry.INSTRUCTIONS_BY_OPCODE["JUMP"]  # get the template object from the instruction registry 
jmp = registry.INSTRUCTIONS_BY_NAME["JUMP"]  # get the template object from the instruction registry 

jmp = jmp.clone()  # clone a new instruction from the template object

## creating new instruction objects from the template 
jmp = registry.create_instruction(name="JUMP")  # create a new jump instruction object in order to keep (

# access via categories lookup
terminating_instructions = registry.INSTRUCTIONS_BY_CATEGORY["terminate"]

# access all instructions as a list (no guarantee this is sorted in the future)
list_of_all_instructions = registry.INSTRUCTIONS

# extract certain instructions
list_of_gas_heavy_instructions = [i for i in registry.INSTRUCTIONS if i.gas > 500]

disassembling bytecode

• to work with evm-bytecode create a new EvmBytecode(...) object. It either takes bytes, 0x<hexstr> or hexstr
• use EvmBytecode.disassemble() to transform it into a EvmInstructions(...) object (actually a custom list of Instruction(...) objects)
• use EvmInstructions.assemble() to transform it into a EvmBytecode(...) object.
