Supported architectures
During the analysis, TrustInSoft CI faithfully emulates a target hardware architecture, respecting properties such as endianness, integer types and alignment constraints.
For each analysis, you can specify the target architecture of your choice by setting the machdep field in the Analyses configuration file to the corresponding architecture name. If machdep is not provided, TrustInSoft CI emulates, by default, a 32-bit x86 processor.
See below the list of currently supported architectures or read more about machdep.
