Bug Description:
When opening the attached file for analysis BN fails to find the global pointer which leads to a worse decomp of the main/entry function.
When opening the same binary in Ghidra for de compilation it successfully finds the GPs value.
The binary itself is a small sample meant for decompilation and given in the context of a university course, it consist of a main function and a function that generates Fibonacci numbers the main function fills an array, compares it to some pre computed numbers and exists successfully if they match and with -1 otherwise
Steps To Reproduce:
Please provide all steps required to reproduce the behavior:
- Open elf file
- run analysis
- GP value couldn't be determined
Expected/Desired Behavior:
GP should be found, Ghidra found it so it's safe to assume it's possible.
Screenshots/Video Recording:
Binary:
If applicable, please provide us with the binary to help us work with the issue faster. Here are a few options:

Direzione di ricerca
Start by reproducing the issue with the RISC-V 32 ELF described in the report and confirm the global-pointer analysis failure during ELF analysis. The issue names no source file, test, or entry point beyond the main/entry function, and the supplied binary is not available in the payload. Done means the global pointer is identified and the resulting decompilation improves without regressing other analysis.
