This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and
|
|
|
|
|
Instrumentation Library.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing
|
|
|
|
|
ABI-relevant artifacts.

The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like
|
|
|
|
|
types, variable, fonctions and declarations of a given library or
|
|
|
|
|
program. For a given library or program this set of quantities is
|
|
|
|
|
called an ABI corpus.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to comparing
|
|
|
|
|
two ABI Corpuses, provide detailed information about their
|
|
|
|
|
differences, and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions
|
|
|
|
|
about these differences.
