Background

During iOS reversing, using IDA pseudocode to anlysis function logic, but too many sub_XXX default name functions.

while many of them are simple function:

• only few instructions
• and match simple logic
  • for exmaple
    • all MOV then end with RET
    • all MOV then end with B
    • all STP then end with RET = I called it prologue function
    • ....

previsouly, need manual to rename to reflect it content, such as

__text:00000001023A2534 sub_1023A2534
__text:00000001023A2534                 MOV             X5, X0
__text:00000001023A2538                 MOV             X0, X19
__text:00000001023A253C                 RET

rename from sub_1023A2534 to X0toX5_X19toX0_2534

here try use (IDA Plugin) python code to automate whole rename process, to facilitate iOS reverse

• for capable to find class name
  • single class name: change id type
  • <= 5 class name: add to function comment

eg:

change id type

id __cdecl objc_msgSend_zoomToUserLocationAnimated_resetZoomLevel_(
        WAMapView *curWAMapView,
        const char *zoomToUserLocationAnimated_resetZoomLevel_,
        id zoomToUserLocationAnimated,
        id resetZoomLevel)
{
  return -[WAMapView zoomToUserLocationAnimated:resetZoomLevel:](
           curWAMapView,
           "zoomToUserLocationAnimated:resetZoomLevel:",
           zoomToUserLocationAnimated,
           resetZoomLevel);
}

in which, change id type (and name) from id curObj to WAMapView *curWAMapView

add to function comment

// -[WACallManager endCallWithReason:], -[WACallManagerBase endCallWithReason:]
id __cdecl objc_msgSend_endCallWithReason_(id curObj, const char *endCallWithReason_, id someReason)
{
  return _objc_msgSend(curObj, "endCallWithReason:", someReason);
}

in which, added function comment -[WACallManager endCallWithReason:], -[WACallManagerBase endCallWithReason:]
