struct AMX is the structure in the server/VM that holds information about a loaded script - next instruction, segment addresses, etc. This library, through an expoit in certain versions of the VM, allows scripts to access their own server-internal data, to read and write to it. This makes it very easy to corrupt the currently running script. The functions provided only give very low-level access to reading and writing offsets. To find where in the structure you need to read certain data from check amx.h in the pawn runtime source. This include uses both phys_memory.inc and shellcode.inc to execute arbitrary x86 machine code, which sounds scary, but that code can only be defined in a script explicitly executed. Furthermore the exploit in question only works on Windows, and is disabled by any VM without code relocation (notably, open.mp).
Returns the address of the AMX struct instance in memory that corresponds to this script. This function works only on Windows!
