9 years agoAdd support for signing payloads
Ross Lagerwall [Tue, 10 Nov 2015 10:31:55 +0000 (10:31 +0000)]
Add support for signing payloads

Use the module signing infrastructure from Linux 4.3-rc6 to allow
signing payloads.

Example:
$ cd sign
$ make
$ ./sign-file-wrapper /path/to/payload.xsplice

9 years agoImplement run-time linking
Ross Lagerwall [Fri, 6 Nov 2015 12:55:25 +0000 (12:55 +0000)]
Implement run-time linking

Implement run-time linking and link at run-time by default. Still keep
the option to link at compile time.

9 years agoAllow specifying a build-id dependency
Ross Lagerwall [Thu, 5 Nov 2015 14:10:17 +0000 (14:10 +0000)]
Allow specifying a build-id dependency

Allow including a build-id on which the created patch module depends.
This will then be verified by the hypervisor during patch apply.

9 years agoAdd 64 bytes of padding to xsplice_patch_funcs structure
Ross Lagerwall [Tue, 3 Nov 2015 14:44:49 +0000 (14:44 +0000)]
Add 64 bytes of padding to xsplice_patch_funcs structure

This gives the hypervisor scratch space for undo buffers and possibly
other uses.

9 years agoInclude a build id in xsplice modules
Ross Lagerwall [Mon, 2 Nov 2015 13:36:43 +0000 (13:36 +0000)]
Include a build id in xsplice modules

The build id will in future be used to uniquely identify a module and
for module dependencies.

9 years agoAdd support for hooks and ignore functions and sections

9 years agoAdd prelink tool
Ross Lagerwall [Tue, 20 Oct 2015 15:51:37 +0000 (16:51 +0100)]
Add prelink tool

To simplify matters, prelink against a xen-syms file at compile time to
avoid having to resolve symbols at runtime. Create a prelink tool to do
this. Split out the elf loading and saving code of create-diff-object.c
into a common file which is shared by create-diff-object and prelink.

9 years agoClean up code a bit
Ross Lagerwall [Tue, 20 Oct 2015 11:14:10 +0000 (12:14 +0100)]
Clean up code a bit

Make functions and variables static.
Remove trailing whitespace.
Remove unused functions.

9 years agoAdd space for reverting the each applied function
Ross Lagerwall [Tue, 20 Oct 2015 11:12:16 +0000 (12:12 +0100)]
Add space for reverting the each applied function

Add an undo buffer to each xsplice_patch_func object to making reverting
functions easy.

9 years agoFail if the function is too small to patch

9 years agoAdd support for specifying the path to xen-syms
Ross Lagerwall [Tue, 20 Oct 2015 09:55:16 +0000 (10:55 +0100)]
Add support for specifying the path to xen-syms

This allows linking against a different xen-syms from the original
built. This may be useful if the compile environment or source code is
slightly different.

9 years agoDon't create "reverse" patch modules

Add project files

xsplice-build can build live patches for most XSAs. It is, however,
still prototype code.
