(#45877986)
A tool for “grep”ing MIPS binaries[0] to find duplicate code (functions, segments, sections) primarily to aid in decompiling.
It does some neat things to match instructions while avoiding location dependent references, then creates a hash that can be used to used to search binaries in linear (or faster!) time.
Still a WIP, but being used on at least one decomp project.
