+ some more details:
Opnd* baseOpnd = irManager.newImmOpnd(typeManager.getUnmanagedPtrType(
typeManager.getUIntPtrType()), (POINTER_SIZE_INT)&g_Address);
Opnd* memOpnd = irManager.newMemOpnd(typeManager.getUIntPtrType
(),MemOpndKind_Heap,baseOpnd,NULL, NULL, NULL);

These 2 above are equivalent to the followin C code:

[pseudo-code] Address memOpnd = (Address)&g_Address; // here, the &g_Address
presumed to be the global static var

Now, if you want to write to this, then
[pseudo-code] *(int*)memOpnd = 0xFFFFFF;

Is this what you're trying to achieve?

If yes, then in LIR this is
   Inst* inst = irManager.newCopyPseudoInst(Mnemonic_MOV, memOpnd,
your0xFFFF);

Zouqiong,
LIR is very lowlevel representation and you are allowed to use only x86
commands. See "Pentium4. Instruction reference set" for instructions details
every time you are not sure in results.

The problem is that you can't encode mov [mem], [mem] in a single
instruction and have to use 2 instructions and intermediate value here.
Did I understand your problem right?
