Struct Scanner 

pub struct Scanner(/* private fields */);

Single result IDA-style pattern scanner

A pattern scanner that searches for an IDA-style pattern and returns the pointer to the first occurrence in the binary.

Implementations

impl Scanner

pub fn new(pattern: &str) -> Self

Create a new Scanner instance

Example

use lightningscanner::Scanner;

let scanner = Scanner::new("48 89 5c 24 ?? 48 89 6c");

pub unsafe fn find( &self, preferred_scan_mode: Option<ScanMode>, binary_ptr: *const u8, binary_size: usize, ) -> ScanResult

Find the first occurence of the pattern in the binary

Params

• preferred_scan_mode - preferred scan mode to use (Avx2, Sse42, Scalar) if the preferred mode is not available, will choose the fastest out of the availble ones

• binary_ptr - pointer to the first element of the binary to search the pattern in

• binary_size - binary size

Safety

• binary_ptr - is a valid pointer

• binary_size - corresponds to a valid size of binary

Example

use lightningscanner::Scanner;

let binary = [0xab, 0xec, 0x48, 0x89, 0x5c, 0x24, 0xee, 0x48, 0x89, 0x6c];

let scanner = Scanner::new("48 89 5c 24 ?? 48 89 6c");
let result = unsafe { scanner.find(None, binary.as_ptr(), binary.len()) };

println!("{:?}", result);

Trait Implementations

impl From<Pattern> for Scanner

fn from(value: Pattern) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.
