-*** TODO understanding _start
-
- If we do not have symbols, the only known entry point is _start
- and that does only call a library function. However it has a
- regular structure and one can find the address if main by being
- smart. Unfortunately it's not necessarily possible to do that
- portably so I kind of want to move it out of the core.
-
- http://dbp-consulting.com/tutorials/debugging/linuxProgramStartup.html
-
-*** TODO finding _start for !ELF
-
- COFF / MacO has an entry point. unfortunately LLVM doesn't
- directly let me access this information so currently it does some
- magic for ELF but not others. Might be possible to find something
- in LLDB which we might want to have long-term anyway to add
- debugging capabilities
-
-*** TODO finding plausible function prologs
-
- Some nice heuristices (implemented as plugins) to get something
- even if we can't properly find function calls.
-
-** serializing
-*** TODO routing data through serializing point
-
- Send all relevant data to some management instance. The management
- instance then notifies all stakeholders of the update. This would
- make sure the resulting state of the system is reproducible from
- the serialized stream and is network-streamable.
-
- One will need to take care of potential performance issues.
-
-*** TODO read/write files
-
- What we actually want is a bag of transactions and a logical
- (semi) order on them. Idea is to mostly store xml in a zip
- container.
-
-*** TODO network stuff
-
- If we can serialize to zip containers we can stream them over the
- network. Idea is to use XMPP as transport, a central instance that
- supplies new participants with all past information and a MUC
- where updates are sent to.
-
- Master/slave setups should be easy. Also normal editing should be
- almost conflict free. Probably needs some locking to not cause
- conflicts when scripts runn over the whole binary and add
- information everywhere.
-
-** graph layouting
-*** TODO special entry (exits?) points
-
- B0 with metainformation about the function. also gives a ⊤ and ⊥
- for the graph which is nice for all kind of algorithms
-
-*** TODO routing edges
-
- Edges skipping on layer of blocks sometimes get through (below)
- other blocks. Fixing that makes the whole thing a complex problem
- while currently it's a set of rather simple heuristics
-
-*** TODO Dominator -> anordnung untereinander falls total dominiert
-
- Currently blocks are ordered by address. Sometimes blocks are
- semantically strictly after another but seen before in the address
- space. Would be visually nicer to have a semantical order so
- backward (upward) edges really only happen in loops
-
-** Scripting
-*** TODO design reasonable API
-
- SWIG? We really want a API that looks native for all supported
- scripting languages and we want a API that is semantically the
- same for all languages
-
-*** TODO python
-
- We have guile implemented and working. Python seems to be highly
- popular so we will want to have it as well some time not to
- distant in the future.
-
-** Non-.text stuff
-*** TODO finding data and strings
-
- identify data types by interpreting the instruction sequence
- referencing a datum. Probably we want to have all instructions
- referencing a address in data segments and do some type narrowing
- based on that. Probably also function calls
-
-** Anotating stuff
-*** TODO notification of annotations to stakeholders
-
-** TODO Configuration stuff
-** Bugfixes
-*** TODO build up instruction analysis for !arm !x86
-*** TODO instruction alignment on RISC

-*** TODO blocks not displayed in i4/cip

-* Advanced
-** Deduce structure
-*** TODO Natural loops
-*** TODO trivial control-flow-split
-** Non-.text stuff
-*** TODO plt stuff and finding API via parsing /usr/include
-
- We already have a C parser (clang) so if we see a call to
- function@plt we can see for potential prototypes for that function
- in /usr/include which would give nice type information for C
- libraries. We also want to display manpage for that function if available
