build_macro()

bool build_macro	(		self,
		'insn_t'	insn,
		bool	may_go_forward )

Try to extend the instruction.
This function may modify 'insn' and return false; these changes will be accepted by the kernel but the instruction will not be considered as a macro.

@param insn: Instruction to modify, usually the first instruction of the macro
@param may_go_forward: Is it ok to consider the next instruction for the macro? This argument may be false, for example, if there is a cross reference to the end of INSN. In this case creating a macro is not desired. However, it may still be useful to perform minor tweaks to the instruction using the information about the surrounding instructions.
@returns true if created an macro instruction.

construct_macro()

bool construct_macro	(		self,
		'insn_t'	insn,
		bool	enable )

Construct a macro instruction. This function may be called from ana() to generate a macro instruction.
The real work is done by the 'build_macro()' virtual function. It must be defined by the processor module.
construct_macro() modifies the database using the info provided by build_macro(). It verifies if the instruction can really be created (for example, that other items do not hinder), may plan to reanalyze the macro, etc. If the macro instructions are disabled by the user, construct_macro() will destroy the macro instruction. Note: if INSN_MODMAC is not set in insn.flags, the database will not be modified.

@param insn: the instruction to modify into a macro
@param enable: enable macro generation
@retval true: the macro instruction is generated in 'insn'
@retval false: did not create a macro
