what do these assembly code doing?

Question

I tried to reverse engineer an apk app, and it was loading a native code. I have observed that the app was using the native code like this

public static String v = sUQWWyTBEs().toString().substring(32, 37);

the disassembled function sUQWWyTBEs() with Ghidra contained this code:

                             *************************************************************
                             *                           FUNCTION                          
                             *************************************************************
                             undefined  __cdecl  Myapp_sUQWWyTBEs()
             undefined         w0:1           <RETURN>
             longlong *        x0:8           param_1
                             Myapp_sUQWWyTBEs XREF[2]:     Entry Point (*) , 00101350   
        00100e44 08  00  40  f9    ldr        x8, [param_1 ]
        00100e48 01  00  00  b0    adrp       x1, s_c7a584936712f32773d3d0a_00101000           ; = "c7a584936712f32773d3d0a"
        00100e4c 21  60  08  91    add        x1, x1, #0x218
        00100e50 02  9d  42  f9    ldr        x2, [x8, #0x538 ]
        00100e54 40  00  1f  d6    br         x2

I don't have much experience on assembly code. my question what these code is doing? in respect to the code what the above variable v is stored?

Answer 1

    00100e44 08  00  40  f9    ldr        x8, [param_1 ]

This load the value at memory address param_1 into register x8.

    00100e48 01  00  00  b0    adrp       x1, s_c7a584936712f32773d3d0a_00101000  

This sets register x1 to 0x101000.

    00100e4c 21  60  08  91    add        x1, x1, #0x218

This adds 0x218 to x1, so sets x1 to 0x101218.

    00100e50 02  9d  42  f9    ldr        x2, [x8, #0x538 ]

This loads the value at x8 + 0x538 into x2.

    00100e54 40  00  1f  d6    br         x2

This branches to the memory address stored in x2.

So, unless I am missing something, it looks like there may not be enough information to say what happens unless you provide the additional disassembly at x2. It might be easier to figure out if you can step through the code with a debugger rather than via static analysis.
