pe-sigscan 0.3.0

//! # pe-sigscan
//!
//! Fast in-process byte-pattern ("signature") scanning over the executable
//! sections of a loaded PE (Portable Executable) module on Windows.
//!
//! This crate is a building block for game mods, hookers, debuggers, and any
//! other in-process tool that needs to locate non-exported, non-vtable-
//! accessible code by its byte signature. It mirrors the workflow common
//! across the reverse-engineering ecosystem — derive a pattern from a
//! disassembler (IDA, Ghidra, Binary Ninja, Cutter), then scan the live
//! process's mapped image for it at runtime.
//!
//! ## Quick start
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use pe_sigscan::{find_in_text, Pattern};
//!
//! // Get a module base via your preferred means (GetModuleHandleW,
//! // PEB walk, etc.). For demonstration we assume a known base.
//! # let module_base = 0usize;
//!
//! // Build a pattern from an IDA-style hex string. `?` and `??` are
//! // wildcards; whitespace between bytes is ignored.
//! let pat = Pattern::from_ida("48 8B 05 ?? ?? ?? ?? 48 89 41 08").unwrap();
//!
//! if let Some(addr) = find_in_text(module_base, pat.as_slice()) {
//!     println!("matched at {addr:#x}");
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Or with the `pattern!` macro (no allocation, fully `const`-eligible):
//!
//! ```
//! use pe_sigscan::pattern;
//!
//! const SIG: &[Option<u8>] = pattern![0x48, 0x8B, _, _, 0x48, 0x89];
//! assert_eq!(SIG.len(), 6);
//! assert_eq!(SIG[0], Some(0x48));
//! assert_eq!(SIG[2], None);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Two scanning modes
//!
//! - [`find_in_text`] / [`count_in_text`] / [`iter_in_text`] — walk only
//!   the section literally named `.text`. The simplest case, suitable for
//!   MSVC-built DLLs that put everything in one code section.
//! - [`find_in_exec_sections`] / [`count_in_exec_sections`] /
//!   [`iter_in_exec_sections`] — walk every section whose
//!   `IMAGE_SCN_MEM_EXECUTE` characteristic is set. Required when the
//!   function you're scanning for might live in a companion section like
//!   `.text$mn`, `.textbss`, a jump-table arena, or any of the
//!   optimized-layout code sections that some compilers and linkers emit.
//!
//! Both modes have [`find_in_slice`] / [`count_in_slice`] / [`iter_in_slice`]
//! companions that work on a `&[u8]` instead of a loaded PE — useful for
//! offline analysis, unit testing, and scanning extracted bytes.
//!
//! ## Resolving rel32 displacements
//!
//! Real signature workflows almost always end with "match the
//! instruction, then follow its `rel32` displacement to the actual target
//! address". The [`resolve_rel32`] / [`resolve_rel32_at`] helpers package
//! that arithmetic so callers don't reinvent the off-by-one-prone
//! `next_ip + disp32` calculation:
//!
//! ```no_run
//! use pe_sigscan::{find_in_text, pattern, resolve_rel32_at};
//! # let module_base = 0usize;
//!
//! // mov rax, [rip+disp32]: 48 8B 05 ?? ?? ?? ?? (7 bytes total).
//! const SIG: &[Option<u8>] = pattern![0x48, 0x8B, 0x05, _, _, _, _];
//! if let Some(addr) = find_in_text(module_base, SIG) {
//!     let target = unsafe { resolve_rel32_at(addr, 3, 7) };
//!     println!("global at {target:#x}");
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Why direct memory reads?
//!
//! The `.text` section of a loaded DLL is page-aligned, RX-protected, and
//! stays committed for the lifetime of the module. There is no TOCTOU
//! concern; bytes don't change between reads. A typical scan walks tens of
//! megabytes of bytes — routing every probe through `ReadProcessMemory`
//! would cost tens of millions of syscalls (minutes of wall time). This
//! crate reads directly via raw pointer dereference, bounded to PE-declared
//! section ranges.
//!
//! ## Safety
//!
//! Public functions take a `module_base: usize` you must obtain from the OS
//! (e.g. `GetModuleHandleW`). The implementation parses the PE headers at
//! that base before any other access, so a non-PE pointer is rejected
//! cleanly. Inside the validated section ranges, the unsafe pointer reads
//! are bounded by the `VirtualSize` field from the section header — outside
//! the loader handing us a malformed PE (which the loader itself would have
//! rejected), there is no path to an out-of-bounds read.
//!
//! The slice variants are safe by Rust's slice invariants and need no
//! further trust from the caller.
//!
//! ## Platform
//!
//! Windows / PE only.
//!
//! The crate compiles on every platform — the parsing is pure compute —
//! but the in-process function signatures assume a `module_base` that came
//! from the Windows loader. On non-Windows targets, the slice variants
//! still work for analysing PE bytes you have mapped manually.
//!
//! ## License
//!
//! MIT OR Apache-2.0.

// `.text$mn`, etc. Internally they delegate to `crate::pe::find_section`.
//
// The feature also re-exports the section-lookup helpers from
// `crate::pe` so that advanced users can implement their own
// section-specific logic if needed.

/// Build a `&'static [Option<u8>; N]` at compile time from a list of byte
/// literals and `_` wildcards.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use pe_sigscan::pattern;

/// // `_` is the wildcard token. Use byte literals (0xNN) for fixed bytes.
/// const SIG: &[Option<u8>] = pattern![0x48, 0x8B, _, _, 0x48, 0x89];
/// assert_eq!(SIG, &[Some(0x48), Some(0x8B), None, None, Some(0x48), Some(0x89)]);
/// ```
///
/// This is the zero-cost / no-allocation alternative to
/// [`Pattern::from_ida`]. Use it when the pattern is known at compile time
/// (the common case for hard-coded signatures); use `Pattern::from_ida`
