Just released v0.2.0 of bddisasm - a no_std x86/x86_64 instruction decoder which aims to provide as much information as possible about an instruction
4 projects | /r/rust | 5 Jan 2022

You're probably right. The library was first developed for our in-house hypervisor and memory introspection engine, which needed a way to analyze and emulate instructions, so one of the main goals is to make this as easy as possible. There's a really really small [emulator](https://github.com/bitdefender/bddisasm/blob/master/bindings/rsbddisasm/bddisasm/examples/emulator.rs) example in the repo that showcases this.

The code is available on GitHub (bddisasm-sys contains the FFI bindings, generated with bindgen, while bddisasm holds the higher-level API bindings).
