Tool

genmc

genmc is an IDAPython script and plugin that displays Hex-Rays microcode. Running it as a script adds install_plugin(), which copies the script into IDA's plugins directory. From there the Plugins menu or Ctrl-Shift-M opens it. With the viewer focused, g shows the microcode graph and i shows the graph for the current micro-instruction. It needs IDA and a decompiler at version 7.3 or newer, and the main branch uses Python 3.
