  • Kvm – Kernel Based Virtual Machine
    KVM – KERNEL BASED VIRTUAL MACHINE BACKGROUND Virtualization has begun to transform the way that enterprises are deploying and managing their infrastructure, providing the foundation for a truly agile enterprise, so that IT can deliver an infrastructure that is flexible, scalable, and most importantly economical by efficiently utilizing resources. 10 years ago virtualization was unheard of in the x86 market it was reserved for mainframe and high end UNIX systems. Over the last 3 to 4 years there has been exponential growth in the virtualization market both in terms of customer adoption and in terms of the rise of the number vendors in the virtualization space; from new hypervisor vendors to virtualization management vendors too numerous to mention. VIRTUALIZING THE X86 ARCHITECTURE The x86 architecture has proven to be the dominate platform in enterprise computing, moving from its humble beginnings in desktop systems to now, powering the large enterprise applications that run businesses across the globe. The current generation of x86 CPUs include features such as large scale multi-threading with 8 or more processing cores, support for large memory systems with NUMA and integrated memory controllers, high speed CPU interconnects and chipset for support for advanced reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) features. These features were once reserved for mainframe and high end UNIX systems, today x86 servers with 2 or 4 sockets are replacing expensive UNIX/RISC systems while delivering better performance and 4 and 8 socket servers are challenging mainframe class systems. While the x86 platform has evolved significantly over it's lifetime it has maintained it's core architecture to provide backward compatibility.

  • Challenges in Firmware Re-Hosting, Emulation, and Analysis
    Challenges in Firmware Re-Hosting, Emulation, and Analysis CHRISTOPHER WRIGHT, Purdue University WILLIAM A. MOEGLEIN, Sandia National Laboratories SAURABH BAGCHI, Purdue University MILIND KULKARNI, Purdue University ABRAHAM A. CLEMENTS, Sandia National Laboratories System emulation and firmware re-hosting have become popular techniques to answer various security and performance related questions, such as, does a firmware contain security vulnerabilities or meet timing requirements when run on a specific hardware platform. While this motivation for emulation and binary analysis has previously been explored and reported, starting to either work or research in the field is difficult. To this end, we provide a comprehensive guide for the practitioner or system emulation researcher. We layout common challenges faced during firmware re-hosting, explaining successive steps and surveying common tools used to overcome these challenges. We provide classification techniques on five different axes, including emulator methods, system type, fidelity, emulator purpose, and control. These classifications and comparison criteria enable the practitioner to determine the appropriate tool for emulation. We use our classifications to categorize popular works in the field and present 28 common challenges faced when creating, emulating and analyzing a system, from obtaining firmwares to post emulation analysis. CCS Concepts: • Computer systems organization → Embedded and cyber-physical systems; Firmware; Embedded hardware; Embedded software; Real-time systems; • Hardware → Simulation and emulation. Additional Key Words and Phrases: Firmware re-hosting, system emulation, embedded systems, emulation fidelity, emulator classification, binary analysis, reverse engineering, emulation challenges ACM Reference Format: Christopher Wright, William A.
