Fuel Disassembler

A disassembler for the Fuel VM byte code.

Nice Colours

About

The forc utility provides a parse-bytecode command which will print a bare-bones disassembly with the raw values decoded from a contract's binary bytecode. It is limited by assuming that every 32-bit word is an executable instruction, although it does attempt to output some helpful comments where it can. But generally it is quite hard to read.

forc-dis attempts to produces a far more readable disassembly. It will follow the control flow from the entry point, making no assumptions about whether decoded bytes are instructions or data. It also gives readable names to registers, annotates locations which are read by memory instructions and names known constant values used by the VM.

It also syntax highlights the listing in a fairly pleasing colour scheme.

Installation

Via crates.io

cargo install forc-dis

Via source

Clone this repository and build with Cargo as usual.

git clone https://github.com/otrho/fuel-dis.git
cd fuel-dis
cargo build --release

It can then be run in place using cargo run --release. Or it can be installed using cargo install --path ..

Use

forc-dis will take the path to the bytecode binary as a command line argument.

Alternatively, if forc-dis is in your path it may be used as a Forc plugin. From within a Forc project it can be invoked using forc dis, in which case it will attempt to find the bytecode binary automatically.

Example

$ forc new example

To compile, use `forc build`, and to run tests use `forc test`
