# Ascetic x86_64 AT&T to MASM/NASM assembler translator by <appro>.
#
# Why AT&T to MASM and not vice versa? Several reasons. Because AT&T
# format is way easier to parse. Because it's simpler to "gear" from
# Unix ABI to Windows one [see cross-reference "card" at the end of
# file]. Because Linux targets were available first...
#
# In addition the script also "distills" code suitable for GNU
# assembler, so that it can be compiled with more rigid assemblers,
# such as Solaris /usr/ccs/bin/as.
#
# This translator is not designed to convert *arbitrary* assembler
# code from AT&T format to MASM one. It's designed to convert just
# enough to provide for dual-ABI OpenSSL modules development...
# There *are* limitations and you might have to modify your assembler
# code or this script to achieve the desired result...
#
# Currently recognized limitations:
#
# - can't use multiple ops per line;
#
# Dual-ABI styling rules.
#
# 1. Adhere to Unix register and stack layout [see cross-reference
# ABI "card" at the end for explanation].
# 2. Forget about "red zone," stick to more traditional blended
# stack frame allocation. If volatile storage is actually required
# that is. If not, just leave the stack as is.
# 3. Functions tagged with ".type name,@function" get crafted with
# unified Win64 prologue and epilogue automatically. If you want
# to take care of ABI differences yourself, tag functions as
# ".type name,@abi-omnipotent" instead.
# 4. To optimize the Win64 prologue you can specify number of input
# arguments as ".type name,@function,N." Keep in mind that if N is
# larger than 6, then you *have to* write "abi-omnipotent" code,
# because >6 cases can't be addressed with unified prologue.
# 5. Name local labels as .L*, do *not* use dynamic labels such as 1:
# (sorry about latter).
# 6. Don't use [or hand-code with .byte] "rep ret." "ret" mnemonic is
# required to identify the spots, where to inject Win64 epilogue!
# But on the pros, it's then prefixed with rep automatically:-)
# 7. Stick to explicit ip-relative addressing. If you have to use
# GOTPCREL addressing, stick to mov symbol@GOTPCREL(%rip),%r??.
# Both are recognized and translated to proper Win64 addressing
# modes. To support legacy code a synthetic directive, .picmeup,
# is implemented. It puts address of the *next* instruction into
# target register, e.g.:
#
# .picmeup %rax
# lea .Label-.(%rax),%rax
#
# 8. In order to provide for structured exception handling unified
# Win64 prologue copies %rsp value to %rax. For further details
# see SEH paragraph at the end.
# 9. .init segment is allowed to contain calls to functions only.
# a. If function accepts more than 4 arguments *and* >4th argument
# is declared as non 64-bit value, do clear its upper part.

# Point is that at apparently no occasion Windows kernel would alter
# the area above user stack pointer in true asynchronous manner...
#
# All the above means that if assembler programmer adheres to Unix

# Win64 SEH, Structured Exception Handling.
#
# Unlike on Unix systems(*) lack of Win64 stack unwinding information
# has undesired side-effect at run-time: if an exception is raised in
# assembler subroutine such as those in question (basically we're
# referring to segmentation violations caused by malformed input
# parameters), the application is briskly terminated without invoking
# any exception handlers, most notably without generating memory dump
# or any user notification whatsoever. This poses a problem. It's
# possible to address it by registering custom language-specific
# handler that would restore processor context to the state at
# subroutine entry point and return "exception is not handled, keep
# unwinding" code. Writing such handler can be a challenge... But it's
# doable, though requires certain coding convention. Consider following
# snippet:
#
# .type function,@function
# function:
# movq %rsp,%rax # copy rsp to volatile register
# pushq %r15 # save non-volatile registers
# pushq %rbx
# pushq %rbp
# movq %rsp,%r11
# subq %rdi,%r11 # prepare [variable] stack frame
# andq $-64,%r11
# movq %rax,0(%r11) # check for exceptions
# movq %r11,%rsp # allocate [variable] stack frame
# movq %rax,0(%rsp) # save original rsp value
# magic_point:
# ...
# movq 0(%rsp),%rcx # pull original rsp value
# movq -24(%rcx),%rbp # restore non-volatile registers
# movq -16(%rcx),%rbx
# movq -8(%rcx),%r15
# movq %rcx,%rsp # restore original rsp
# ret
# .size function,.-function
#
# The key is that up to magic_point copy of original rsp value remains
# in chosen volatile register and no non-volatile register, except for
# rsp, is modified. While past magic_point rsp remains constant till
# the very end of the function. In this case custom language-specific
# exception handler would look like this:
#
# EXCEPTION_DISPOSITION handler (EXCEPTION_RECORD *rec,ULONG64 frame,
# CONTEXT *context,DISPATCHER_CONTEXT *disp)
# { ULONG64 *rsp = (ULONG64 *)context->Rax;
# if (context->Rip >= magic_point)
# { rsp = ((ULONG64 **)context->Rsp)[0];
# context->Rbp = rsp[-3];
# context->Rbx = rsp[-2];
# context->R15 = rsp[-1];
# }
# context->Rsp = (ULONG64)rsp;
# context->Rdi = rsp[1];
# context->Rsi = rsp[2];
#
# memcpy (disp->ContextRecord,context,sizeof(CONTEXT));
# RtlVirtualUnwind(UNW_FLAG_NHANDLER,disp->ImageBase,
# dips->ControlPc,disp->FunctionEntry,disp->ContextRecord,
# &disp->HandlerData,&disp->EstablisherFrame,NULL);
# return ExceptionContinueSearch;
# }
#
# It's appropriate to implement this handler in assembler, directly in
# function's module. In order to do that one has to know members'
# offsets in CONTEXT and DISPATCHER_CONTEXT structures and some constant
# values. Here they are:
#
# CONTEXT.Rax 120
# CONTEXT.Rcx 128
# CONTEXT.Rdx 136
# CONTEXT.Rbx 144
# CONTEXT.Rsp 152
# CONTEXT.Rbp 160
# CONTEXT.Rsi 168
# CONTEXT.Rdi 176
# CONTEXT.R8 184
# CONTEXT.R9 192
# CONTEXT.R10 200
# CONTEXT.R11 208
# CONTEXT.R12 216
# CONTEXT.R13 224
# CONTEXT.R14 232
# CONTEXT.R15 240
# CONTEXT.Rip 248
# CONTEXT.Xmm6 512
# sizeof(CONTEXT) 1232
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.ControlPc 0
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.ImageBase 8
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.FunctionEntry 16
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.EstablisherFrame 24
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.TargetIp 32
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.ContextRecord 40
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.LanguageHandler 48
# DISPATCHER_CONTEXT.HandlerData 56
# UNW_FLAG_NHANDLER 0
# ExceptionContinueSearch 1
#
# In order to tie the handler to the function one has to compose
# couple of structures: one for .xdata segment and one for .pdata.
#
# UNWIND_INFO structure for .xdata segment would be
#
# function_unwind_info:
# .byte 9,0,0,0
# .rva handler
#
# This structure designates exception handler for a function with
# zero-length prologue, no stack frame or frame register.
#
# To facilitate composing of .pdata structures, auto-generated "gear"
# prologue copies rsp value to rax and denotes next instruction with
# .LSEH_begin_{function_name} label. This essentially defines the SEH
# styling rule mentioned in the beginning. Position of this label is
# chosen in such manner that possible exceptions raised in the "gear"
# prologue would be accounted to caller and unwound from latter's frame.
# End of function is marked with respective .LSEH_end_{function_name}
# label. To summarize, .pdata segment would contain
#
# .rva .LSEH_begin_function
# .rva .LSEH_end_function
# .rva function_unwind_info
#
# Reference to function_unwind_info from .xdata segment is the anchor.
# In case you wonder why references are 32-bit .rvas and not 64-bit
# .quads. References put into these two segments are required to be
# *relative* to the base address of the current binary module, a.k.a.
# image base. No Win64 module, be it .exe or .dll, can be larger than
# 2GB and thus such relative references can be and are accommodated in
# 32 bits.
#
# Having reviewed the example function code, one can argue that "movq
# %rsp,%rax" above is redundant. It is not! Keep in mind that on Unix
# rax would contain an undefined value. If this "offends" you, use
# another register and refrain from modifying rax till magic_point is
# reached, i.e. as if it was a non-volatile register. If more registers
# are required prior [variable] frame setup is completed, note that
# nobody says that you can have only one "magic point." You can
# "liberate" non-volatile registers by denoting last stack off-load
# instruction and reflecting it in finer grade unwind logic in handler.
# After all, isn't it why it's called *language-specific* handler...
#
# Attentive reader can notice that exceptions would be mishandled in
# auto-generated "gear" epilogue. Well, exception effectively can't
# occur there, because if memory area used by it was subject to
# segmentation violation, then it would be raised upon call to the
# function (and as already mentioned be accounted to caller, which is
# not a problem). If you're still not comfortable, then define tail
# "magic point" just prior ret instruction and have handler treat it...
#
# (*) Note that we're talking about run-time, not debug-time. Lack of
# unwind information makes debugging hard on both Windows and
# Unix. "Unlike" referes to the fact that on Unix signal handler
# will always be invoked, core dumped and appropriate exit code
# returned to parent (for user notification).
