DKII consistency failures

[sei-eschwartz]

Not sure if this is still related to the original problem but it still doesn't run through:

Contradictory information about constructor: factConstructor(0x5de050) but reasonNOTConstructor(0x5de050)
Constraint checks failed, retracting guess!
failed.
Consistency checks failed.
Contradictory information about constructor: factConstructor(0x600400) but reasonNOTConstructor(0x600400)
Constraint checks failed, retracting guess!
tryBinarySearch completely failed on [0x5de050] and will now backtrack to fix an upstream problem.
Refusing to backtrack into reasoningLoop to fix an upstream problem because backtrackForUpstream/0 is not set.
This likely indicates that there is a problem with the OO rules.
Please report this failure to the Pharos developers!

I might see what is going wrong...

reasonMergeVFTables_A(constructor, 0x672900, 0x6728f8, 0x672900, 0, factVFTableWrite(0x5dd7cf, 0x5dd760, 0, 0x672900)).
Concluding mergeVFTables(0x672900, 0x6728f8).

So we decide that this vftable belongs to the current constructor based on the vftable write. Here is the vftable write:

.text:005DD7C0 call ??2@YAPAXI@Z ; operator new(uint)
.text:005DD7C5 add esp, 4
.text:005DD7C8 cmp eax, edi
.text:005DD7CA jz short loc_5DD7DB
.text:005DD7CC mov [eax+8], edi
.text:005DD7CF mov dword ptr [eax], offset some_vftable_0

In other words, we install this vftable into a new heap-allocated object, not the "this" object this constructor is constructing.

I think this is a side-effect of a change we made recently that exported possibleVFTableFacts for non-this objects. The solution is to validate that the vftable write is in "this" object. I am trying this now.

I think this should fix it: cf77c93

It certainly doesn't fail as quickly, but my run of DKII hasn't completed yet.

This causes a regression in our unit tests:

117: FAILED: ooex_vs2010/Lite/oo ooanalyzer results +finalClass(0x0040247E void __thiscall std::basic_char_ostream::`vbase destructor(void), 0, 0xc, 0xc, 0x0040247E void __thiscall std::basic_char_ostream::`vbase destructor(void

iscall std::basic_char_ostream::basic_char_ostream(class std::basic_char_streambuf *, bool)]).-

We are no longer able to associate the vbase destructor with the correct class.

Binary ninja says the function simplifies to:

sub_40247e:    
0 @ 00402487  *(*(*arg1 + 4) + arg1 + 8 - 8) = 0x41238c    
1 @ 00402490  *(arg1 + 8) = 0x412384    
2 @ 0040249c  return sub_403d09(arg1 + 8)

Statement 0 installs std::ostream::vftable. This is obviously accessing a virtual base offset, which is why the change breaks things. This is unavoidable I think until we improve our support for virtual bases.

@Trass3r Take a look at this?
DKII.EXE.json.gz

[Trass3r]

The patch in master...sei-eschwartz:pharos:master (also mentioned in #227 (comment)) indeed made it run to the end.
