In the issue #72, we found that the implementation of CodeRefsTo() excludes all call type cross-references, which is inconsistent with the results of CodeRefsTo() in IDA Pro 7.0.
According to the comment, the developers excluded the calling flows. However, we found that the CodeRefsTo should include the calling flows according to an example in the idapython project (link). In the code, they use
CodeRefsToto find all callers of the target function. Thus, we modify the implementation ofCodeRefsTo(also theCodeRefsFrom) to include the call flows.
