simultaneous 32-bit and 64-bit library support for x64 DR controlling WOW64 app

From [email protected] on February 24, 2009 14:14:20

Today 32-bit DR can control the 32-bit parts of a WOW64 app but to see all of the code including the emulation layer we want 64-bit DR able to run the whole mixed-mode app. Some of the capabilities here also apply to Linux mixed-mod apps but those are much, much rarer.

here is my list of cases that will eventually be separately filed here:

PR 240257: support 32-bit clients on WOW64? how mix 32 and 64 bit code? like Pin, give stream to separate clients? or give 32-bit code to 64-bit client?
PR 253431: [wow64] simultaneous 32-bit and 64-bit dll support in 64-bit DR
PR 314367: re-enable x64 DR controlling WOW64 process once it works
PR 272553: [x64] late injection must switch from kernel32 to ntdll for wow64 children
PR 271317: preserve cs changes from far ctis and iret
PR 283895: [x64][correctness][performance] for x86 code use separate x86 ibl tables and compacted or separate tls
PR 283152: support high bit preservation across mode changes
PR 284029: [x64] support syscalls in x86 mode TODO: reg_spill_dcontext_offs(reg_id_t reg): /* Use REG_E?? instead of REG_X?? to eventually support 32-bit code spills in
- mixed 64-bit/32-bit execution. */
PR 269595: WOW64 context translation failing when at our own post-syscall point
PR 254193: [x64] inject into different-architecture child: x64 to WOW64, WOW64 to x64 => long-term we'll only support 64-bit-DR in WOW64 following (PR 253431)
PR 253943: [x64] support sysenter
PR 255555: [x64] 32-bit drinject options for launching 64-bit exe how know if ilist is 32-bit: instr_get_x86_mode() on each instr, or can assume if 1st then whole is same? shouldn't matter for most ops: IR is rich enough and cross-platform enough
