ARM MIPS

Does the architecture support ARM and MIPS? It seems that the current version 6.0 does not support these two architectures.

Hi, thank you for your interest in our project.

Could you clarify what you mean by 'architecture'?
If you are referring to the input for FunProbe, both ARM and MIPS are supported. Please refer to the evaluation section of our paper for more details.
However, if you mean the running environment, FunProbe depends on the .NET framework. While .NET supports ARM32, it currently does not support MIPS (as seen in the .NET 6.0 documentation).

If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you!

I was very excited to communicate with you. I tested FunProbe on x86 and x64 architectures without any issues, but it failed to run by default on ARM-32 and MIPS. For MIPS, I resolved the issue by properly passing the GOT (Global Offset Table) information. However, for ARM-32, I identified a potential issue and would like to discuss it with you: core.AddrMap[addr] performs direct dictionary indexing, but in ARM shared libraries, the .init_array/.fini_array sections may contain addresses that are not present in the code address mapping, leading to a KeyNotFoundException crash. After applying a fix for this issue, the tool runs successfully on ARM-32 binaries, but the detection performance is noticeably degraded compared to x86. Thank you！Thank you again for your reply.
